Uproar releases second stand-up CD by edgy and raw comedian John Moses

LOS ANGELES, Calif., May 6, 2016 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- Uproar Entertainment is excited to announce the release of John Moses' second CD "Upper Middle Trash," recorded in front of a live audience. John Moses has been delightfully offending audiences throughout the United States, Canada and the U.K. for more than 10 years. John is always a standout at comedy festivals including The Boston Comedy Festival, The Asheville Comedy Festival and the Dark Comedy Festival in Toronto where he roasted Porn Legend Ron Jeremy.

He released his debut album "On The Edge" on Uproar in 2012. It was voted one of Laughspin.com's "10 Best Comedy Albums of 2012," and given their dubious distinction as "The One Album From 2012 You Should Get By A Comedian You Probably Never Heard Of." It is still in regular rotation on Sirius XM RawDog, The Foxxhole and Canada Laughs. In 2013, John became an immediate favorite on AXS TV's Gotham Comedy Live and was featured in their special "Best of Season One." In 2015 he made his second appearance on Gotham Comedy Live and received high praise from the show's host, the iconic Dom Irrera.

In "Upper Middle Trash" John talks about his loving, dysfunctional family; heroic tales of alcoholism; being a married product of divorce; revenge; and debauchery -- to name just a few topics. The product of a "nice guy" dad and an alcoholic mother who "when she drinks she can say some of the most hateful things ever uttered," John says "I take after my mother. I'm a bit of a misogynist. Alcoholism and mental illness run rampant in my family on both sides. I'm part Native, that doesn't help."

He continues "I did alright in school up until my third year of college when all I did was drink, smoke weed, pop pills and snort lines. In the last class I attended the chalkboard was waving in and out. I've been in a lot of fights, probably around 30."

As you might imagine, John's comedy is not for the faint of heart. You either love him or.... He is intelligent; he is controversial; he is off-the-wall funny!

"John Moses' comedy is definitely on the edge, and the edge is right between evil genius and uncontrollable laughter." -- Monsters and Critics.

Bakdraff Releases New Album that Documents Steel City Struggles

PITTSBURGH, Pa., April 27, 2016 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- "The Vault" is the latest release from Bakdraff Entertainment. Seventeen tracks long, it features music that was created by six music producers and 16 artists over the course of several years.

"As the executive producer of this project, I was involved in countless studio sessions," Daniel "Rambo" Lebo, Bakdraff founder and Pittsburgh rapper says. "This album is a recorded diary of the struggles we've been through growing up in the Steel City. It's a provocative collection of music that digs into the city's history. Every street has a vibe and every building has a story."

A musical tribute of sorts, "The Vault" is dedicated to everyone who the artists grew up with, and to the people they lost in the process.

"This music is for all the people I've worked with over the years. It's dedicated to the blood, sweat and tears we shed and to the hustle we shared together," he says.

"The Vault" will be available for download on April 29, 2016. Among the tracks are Da Rukus and Bakdraff.

In addition to "The Vault," Bakdraff has two other albums available for download on iTunes - "The Steel City Hustle" and "Concrete Camouflage" by Rambo.

About Bakdraff:

Founded in 2010 by Daniel "Rambo" Lebo, Bakdraff is a hip hop music collective. While the label originated in Pittsburgh, the collective has grown to include artists and producers from several states throughout the U.S., Jamaica and Puerto Rico. It has worldwide distribution with an independent music distributor.

Progressive Rock Group DeCoster Releases CD at The Bitter End in NY

NEW YORK, N.Y., April 18, 2016 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- Progressive rock group DeCoster is releasing their second CD "Walking In The Sun," at the Bitter End, 147 Bleecker Street, New York City on Wednesday April 20, 2016 with an 8 p.m. performance.

The group is fronted by classically trained lead guitarist and composer Paul DeCoster who plays riffs on his Stratocaster that defy gravity, and writes lyrics and melodies that have an 80's feel, while his percussionist Rich Kulsar punctuates and supports the vibe with earthy ethereal Afro/Caribbean accents.

Paul DeCoster may have a Beach Boy look, but he's got some Elvis hip movement, and a voice that has musical register from Sting to Micheal Buble.

Look carefully at the image reflected on his aviator glasses on the cd cover, and you'll notice an iconic Coney Island landmark, "The Parachute Drop." This beach has been one of his muses and is forever attached to his soul.

Paul DeCoster says of himself, "As a musician, I've always found it easier to express my feelings and my imagination through sounds and lyrics. Very often, I tell a story that might be sparked by what I experience, or even what others have experienced, and when I write it, it's my reality for that moment. When I sing it, I live it again."

His new CD is available for download on iTunes Spotify and CD Baby.

About Paul DeCoster:

Paul DeCoster has been on the music bar scene in New York for a number of years, and continues to perform at numerous venues in and around New York City. He has taken his music recently to Atlanta, Seattle, and even played al fresco in Xuanwu Lake Park in Nanjing, China to some very happily surprised passersby. His musical inspirations have been The Police, Bryan Adams and Phoenix, as well as many contemporary artists. This summer he plans to tour the East Coast, and check out the London scene.

Country Artist Josh Vincent and Single Debut with a Bang

DALLAS/FORT WORTH, Texas, April 15, 2016 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- Josh Vincent, country singer and songwriter, recently released a new single, "Two Shots," which he hopes will shake up the country music scene.

Vincent says, "'Two Shots' is kind of like a western movie in a song. It's about a time that no longer exists, back when gunslingers and hanging judges were the way of the land. If the song was a movie it would likely be a mix of 'Young Guns' with a splash of 'The Good, The Bad and The Ugly.'"

It's been said that Vincent's songs are reminiscent of outlaw country musicians such as Johnny Cash, Merle Haggard and Waylon Jennings - all who paved the way for today's artists.

"I've got a style that you can't really put into a box," Vincent says. "If I had to define it, I'd call it alternative country."

ReverbNation, a musician's network, is home to many emerging artists, including Vincent. Its crowd listeners have said everything about this new single release from, "It really turns up the vibe in a sweet, edgy, country way," to "It should be a hit song anywhere in the world."

"Two Shots" is available for download and streaming on iTunes, Spotify, Amazon Music, Google Play, iHeart Radio and all services provided by Tunecore.

The E.P., "Small Town Stuff" is scheduled to be released in June and will include "Two Shots" and four additional, original songs written and performed by Vincent. Other song titles included are "We Ain't [Pop] Country," "Hell Bent and Twisted," "Small Town Stuff" and "So Much Sh**."

About Josh Vincent:

Josh Vincent is a country singer and songwriter with an agenda. He wants to share with the world the music he grew up listening to as child. At a young age, his father introduced him to the guitar and he's been hooked ever since. Some of his early influences include Waylon Jennings, Hank Williams Sr. and Jr., Johnny Cash, Merle Haggard, Willie Nelson, Jerry Jeff Walker and Kris Kristofferson. He writes real-world lyrics and his songs tell stories that transport listeners to another time and place.

Uproar Entertainment Announces New Comedy CD by Jodi Miller

LOS ANGELES, Calif., April 11, 2016 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- Uproar Entertainment is excited to announce the release of Jodi Miller's first comedy CD "NO CHILD LEFT BEHIND." Recorded in front of a live audience at The Comedy Underground in Seattle, Wash., this CD is instantly a hilariously relatable, and spontaneously pushes the envelope. This is Jodi's first recording for Uproar Entertainment.

Jodi Miller, comedienne, performer, television and film writer, coach, and leading lady extraordinaire, has been entertaining audiences nationwide with her stand-up comedy for over 16 years. Though she currently calls Los Angeles home, Jodi is a New Jersey native. After graduating from East Stroudsburg University with a degree in Broadcast Journalism, her ease in front of the camera helped her land roles on both "The Sopranos" and "Law & Order," and propelled her headfirst into stand-up comedy.

Jodi's "just got out of bed - raspy" voice combined with her quirky facial expressions creates an addictive mix of incredible wit and charm. Her banter covers everything from cats, to singer/songwriters, to how her dad is desperate for her to finally get knocked up.

Jodi's innate ability to captivate audiences has landed her appearances on hit shows such as MTV's Rob and Big Black, Chelsea Lately, and Comedy Jam: Entertainers with Bryon Allen, Gotham Comedy Live, Comics Unleashed, CNN's Showbiz Tonight, and The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, as well as on Comedy Central, TRU TV, SyFy, GSN and Playboy Plus. Other credits include being the host of Newsbusted, a weekly online comedy news show, and a writer on the Cinemax series Co-Ed Confidential.

In her spare time, Jodi co-authored the WTF Series, available in stores and online now. If that's not enough, Jodi was named one of the "Five Comics to Watch Out for in 2014" by OC Weekly, and has taken her talent on four military tours overseas to entertain the troops in Afghanistan. Her animated, energetic comedy earned her a standing ovation from all four judges on Season 9 of "America's Got Talent." Jodi Miller is a comedic tour de force!

New Comedy CD by Josh Adams from Uproar Entertainment

LOS ANGELES, Calif., March 9, 2016 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- Uproar Entertainment is excited to announce the release of Josh Adams' first comedy CD "LIVE FROM THE DROP" on March 11, 2016.

Recorded in front of a live audience at The Drop Comedy Club in South Bend Indiana, Adams delivers a clever, laid back, in your face look at the world in which we live accented with heavy hitting jokes.

Fellow comedian, Paolo Busignani says, "There are not too many people who can take a scary, embarrassing, or awkward moment in their lives and make it funny quite like Josh Adams. His upbeat and energetic style captivates audiences, while his jokes hit as hard as a heavyweight fighter, and your ribs will hurt just as much from laughing so hard."

Hailing from Detroit, Michigan, Josh Adams is gearing up to be a comedic heavy hitter. Over the course of his career, Adams has performed in front of all types of audiences from mainstream to urban, and at venues across the country ranging from colleges, to churches, to comedy clubs. Drawing from his unique perspective as a kid who was born in the hood and grew up in the suburbs, Adams holds his own when performing alongside national headlining acts such as Mike Epps, Thea Vidale, J. Chris Newberg, and Finesse Mitchell.

Adams was first inspired by Tommy Davidson's Showtime special "Illin in Philly," and has used that spark to develop his own unique brand of comedy. Never hesitant to step out of his comfort zone, Adams' versatile style has won him numerous titles in comedy competitions. Adams considers winning the prestigious "Showtime at the Apollo" at the historic Apollo Theatre on BET's "Apollo Live, Season 2" a personal milestone. He also won "Showdown in Motown" and the "Devils Cup Comedy Competition" at the Laughing Devil Comedy Club in New York. He was named "Funniest Person in Grand Rapids" and awarded "Best of the Fest" at Mark Ridley's Comedy Castle's "Detroit Laugh Comedy Festival."

Josh Adams has a comedic voice that needs to be heard. With his clever comedy and versatile style he continues to win over audiences nationwide.

Young, Gifted and Gay Hip Hop Artist Rahccy Releases New Single ‘Miss Jill on 108th’

LOS ANGELES, Calif., March 2, 2016 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- Covert Entertainment's 23-year-old powerhouse performer, Rahccy is packing pain, pushing power, igniting love and stirring the fever in her every verse with the release of her debut single, "Miss Jill on 108th." Young, gifted and unapologetically gay, Rahccy is knocking down musical walls and rebuilding them her way, single-handedly revamping hip hop and restructuring its current status quo.

Backed by the production wizardry of Covert Entertainment CEO, Dwayne "Muffla" Simon and Four Choice Productions, Rahccy's strong intention to readjust hip hop is more than just some new artist's bright eyed notion. Most notably, her producer Simon is the man responsible for blazing the music scene with his talent by writing, producing and arranging super hits for artists such as LL Cool J, Run DMC and Ice Cube.

Rooted in the Los Angeles community of Watts, Rahccy is that flower determined to bloom between the cracks of concrete. Her childhood home stands on the very corner where the historical and brutal riots tore apart the city in 1965. Alchemizing an inimitable brand of hip hop, neo soul and gospel and delivering gold, one can hear the pathos of street survival in every lingering beat.

Imagine if Lauryn Hill, Meshell Ndegeocello and Angie Stone were all harmonizing together on one song. You would have Ndegeochello's bottomless, balmy bass, Hill's wicked, spitfire lyricism and Angie Stone's lusciously seductive tonality. Rahccy is one tiny, unassuming woman who stands alone and delivers that power pack of fervor.

With "Miss Jill On 108th," Rahccy's old soul sentiment beams bright as she pays homage to the many older, faceless women in the community who are encountered only briefly but leave a lasting spell. Rahccy holds the torch for those who can't.

Singing in church since the age of eight, Rahccy's talent garnered her initial recognition in high school when she teamed up with fellow student Rob "Galli" Salazar and won their high school competition "Bringin' Down the House" performing at the legendary House Of Blues in Los Angeles. The duo's bond continued and they were featured in a short documentary called "South Of Stars" by KPCC, which still garners views online.

After surviving a near fatal car crash in 2015, her life shifted dramatically as she healed and returned back to the studio with a vengeance.

Cites her producer Dwayne "Muffla" Simon, "With a string of multi-platinum hits from my work with LL Cool J to name just a few, I thought my music days were over. The music scene has changed so much and no one was lighting a fire for me. Then I heard Rahccy and I knew I had to come out of retirement. She has that rare quality that artist possess when they are bigger than themselves. Rahccy has that 'it' quality that legends are made of. As a producer, I'm more than excited because I know she is going to blaze hip hop with her passion."

"I know I'm an old soul," cites Rahccy. "I was raised by my grandparents and they taught me some things crucial about love and respect. The fight of being a woman of color and a lesbian is real. As a part of that community, I'm a tool to be used in the larger context of things. I envision my music as a pioneer for change. We don't see, hear or celebrate many artists that look and sound like me. I'm here to change that."

"Miss Jill On 108th" is available on iTunes and wherever online music is sold.

NY Times Best-Selling Author’s Book Optioned by Ridley Scott, Partners with Humanitarian Singer-Songwriter-Composer

LOS ANGELES, Calif., Dec. 10, 2015 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- Multi award-winning singer/songwriter/composer Paul Luftenegger and New York Times best-selling author Anita Moorjani, whose hugely successful book "Dying to be Me" chronicles her struggle with cancer and her near death experience with heaven (over one million copies sold, translated into 47 languages), are jointly releasing an album to inspire self-love.

Moorjani's book was optioned by acclaimed director Ridley Scott to make a full-length feature film (February 2015). The author and musician are making history by fusing self-help/non-fiction literature with music with the release of an international album entitled "The Miracle of You." It will be available worldwide for digital-download on CD Baby on December 12, 2015 and iTunes, and Amazon soon after.

"The intention of this positive album is to inspire self-love and self-kindness from within," says Luftenegger.

The music on their album was inspired by Moorjani's book featuring Canadian solo violinist Natalia Zielinski who's worked with David Foster and Josh Groban. The album was recorded in Toronto Canada and produced by Arun Chaturvedi, best known for his work with Luke McMaster and for creating music for the hit show "Keeping Up with The Kardashians."

This is Luftenegger's fifth international album. He has gained global recognition for his love-music inspiring self-kindness. His primary call to action is to help self-worth after he experienced the tragic loss of his father by suicide in 2011. Luftenegger says, "Music is an infinite love-battery capable of opening the heart from within."

Fans include celebrities, best-selling authors, royalty, and politicians -- and Luftenegger's music efforts have been featured on radio around the world. His family-friendly music is gaining popularity with thought-leaders including Oprah Winfrey who said, "Thank you for the CD's lovely, lovely, lovely. You bring great solace, peace, comfort and joy!" - Winfrey's message was left on a fan's voicemail thanking both Paul and his fan who helped get his music to Oprah at her Hawaiian estate earlier this year.

New York Times best-selling author Dr. Christiane Northrup has shared Paul's music with her fans and professor/priest and New York Times best-selling author Barbara Brown Taylor (who has taught at Georgia's Piedmont College and lectured at Yale & Princeton who was placed on "Time Magazine's" annual list of most influential people in the world) said this about Luftenegger's song/video, "Universal Love" - "The video's lovely, Paul, as is the music. Thanks for sharing it, and for doing your part to soften the heart of the world."

Fox's - "So You Think You Can Dance," Tango Choreographer, Miriam Larici thanked Paul for his music after hearing his song, "My Heart" - "We heard your masterpiece 200 times already!"

Moorjani has been featured on CNN's "Anderson Cooper 360," "Fox News" in New York, the "Jeff Probst Show" in Hollywood, cable TV's "National Geographic International," "The Today Show," with Maria Shriver, "The Pearl Report" in Hong Kong, and "HeadStart" with Karen Davila in the Philippines. Anita speaks at conferences globally and gives workshops sharing Luftenegger's music.

Uproar Entertainment Releases First Comedy CD by Tobe Hixx

LOS ANGELES, Calif., July 27, 2015 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- Comedy saved Tobe Hixx's life! A skinny kid who was often teased and ridiculed by his peers, Hixx ultimately turned to a life of crime that included gangs and selling crack. After stints in both state and federal prison, Hixx chose to return to his first love, comedy. Uproar Entertainment announces a new comedy CD from Hixx, "Laugh or Die."

Says Hixx, "People don't realize when you sell drugs, you're just as addicted as the person using the drugs. I was addicted to the money and the lifestyle." Overcoming hard times in prison helped him develop the thick skin he would need to survive as a comedian.

Hixx started his comedy career in San Diego, Calif., where he was voted San Diego's Funniest Man. Since then, Hixx has traveled the globe making audiences roar with laughter in over 15 countries, including Iraq and Afghanistan where he received the highest medal of recognition for entertaining American soldiers. His humble beginning remains a pertinent part of his story and a reminder to continue propelling forward. "Every time things get tough, shows get cancelled, it makes you think of the past."

Hixx, who has a special penchant for being around for funny moments, gets most of his material from real life situations. His style is salted with influences of comedic heavyweights Richard Pryor, George Carlin, Redd Foxx and Louis CK. Taking his audiences on side-splitting journeys, he perfectly combines the honesty of Pryor's personal tragedies, Carlin's disposition for observation and knowledge, Foxx's sharp attitude, and CK's tenacity.

The LA Times writes: "Tobe Hixx is a true Comedian. Tobe works the crowd until everyone is laughing and he gets even funnier! Great Show! Tremendous artist worth every penny of admission."

He has been seen on "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno," Fox's "Laughs," LaffMobb's "We Got Next," "Comics Unleashed," "Who Wants to Date a Comedian," "The Doctors-Man Cave Segments," BET's "Comic View," "Operation Repo," and "1000 Ways to Die," in addition to numerous stand-up TV performances.

About Uproar Entertainment:
For the past 20 years, Uproar Entertainment has been recording and promoting today's most talented comedians. Under the helm of David Drozen, the man who discovered Richard Pryor in early 1970, signed him to his first recording contract, and produced 12 of his albums for the legendary comedy label Laff Records, Uproar nurtures, supports and develops the best comedic talents of our time.

With an unparalleled ear for undiscovered talent, Mr. Drozen is responsible for discovering many of today's comedy greats, producing their very first comedy albums and igniting their comedy careers. Under his leadership Uproar Entertainment is "makin' comedy happen!"

Children’s Choir Moves Nation, World, with Performance at Earthquake-ruined Church

TAGBILARAN CITY, Philippines, Oct. 23, 2013 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- The World Mind Network today announced that The Loboc Children's Choir provided a spontaneous moment of inspiration and hope to the quake-ravaged Philippines on Thursday, with an impromptu performance of Josh Groban's "The Prayer."

According to Sarah Mendel of Friends Beyond Borders, an NGO helping with quake aid, the group approached the ABS-CBN news team as it was reporting in front of the ruined Loboc Church, inside of which the choral group had performed many times.

The church, built by the Spanish in 1602, has survived hundreds of earthquakes, but was completely destroyed by the October 17 7.2 magnitude temblor.

The quake killed at least 198, injured hundreds, and severely damaged more than 19,000 structures.

As a result of their heroic act, the Choir has won the Adelina Award, the most prestigious Humanitarian honor offered in the Philippines.

The Loboc Children's Choir has been in existence since 1980, and consists of 30 school children from the Loboc Central Elementary School in Loboc, Bohol, Philippines. The children are between nine and thirteen years of age.

A scale model of what the rebuilt church might look like, which honors the original architecture but incorporates modern design elements to help prevent future earthquake damage, will be circulated among schools in the region to assist with fundraising and recovery efforts. The new church will be rededicated to the Virgin of Guadalupe, the patron saint of Loboc.

The choir's performance can be seen here: (CBN TV News website) http://goo.gl/fpFOsn .
