Mack Avenue for some time now has been a Jazz label but with the new acquisition of Anthem, they have started a new label Sly Dog records which will boast Anthem and one other up and coming artist at this time. Anthem was able to land the deal by doing a six piece harmony a-cappella song to show the versatility and voice ability of the six member group. Mack Avenue was originally looking for a vocal group somewhat like the Manhattan Transfer or Take Six. A&R from the company recognized the voices in the harmony created by the band and decided to present Anthem to Mack Avenue for an audition. After two performances first at Le Bar Bat located on 57 St. in NYC and Bennett Studios in New Jersey the part was filled by a Reggae band. This came as a total surprise to the band. Now after working with producer Eric Schilling (a ten time Grammy winner) with credits on albums by Gloria Estephon, Frank Sinatra, Natalie Cole, Elton John, Beenie Man and Janet Jackson, Sting, Will Smith and Whitney Houston, Anthem has completed the project by recording at Bennett Studios (Tony Bennett) in Englewood New Jersey then heading to Florida for the mixing. There is no doubt that this is Anthems best CD to date. The album is scheduled to be released in late January 2004. We urge you to visit www.anthemband.com and sign our mailing list to keep updated with a new fresh and most unique take on Reggae music. After Anthems exposure to an international audience, the possibilities are limitless. “Keep your eyes open and watch Anthem explode on to the music Scene.” [7]------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------- >From Paulo Matos (# Date: Thu, 16 Oct 2003 14:40:02 -0700 (PDT) From: Paulo Matos IMPERDÍVEL.
