NEW
YORK (World Domination Records) - The legendary 70s
Disco Diva Viola
Wills returns on the new Gaz Reynolds single 'I Don't Care' which is to
be released in late March. This track sees the second pairing between
the 2 stars after the success of 'In This House' which was released
last year.
Viola Wills is an international recording artiste who
started her career off at the Los Angeles Conservatory of Music. She
later worked with Barry White, Joe Cocker,
Smokey Robinson and many
other established recording artistes until she recorded her first album
of her own original songs "Soft Centers" in London England.
Her
first major break into the mainstream came with her version of "Gonna
Get Along Without You Now" which started a string of dance hits and
Viola's subsequent title of a "disco diva".
Determined to have a
career writing and singing her own songs, Viola recorded and charted
her first original hit "Dare To Dream", followed by her version of
"Both Sides Now". All three of the songs would land Viola in the
Guiness Book of Records for the UK.
Eventually Viola took a break
and returned to
America to work on a college degree in music therapy.
During this period she wrote and produced her one-woman show
"Willspower".
A demand for 80's music brought Viola back to Europe
where she firmly committed herself to promote her own music. With this
new committment in mind Ms Wills has formed a new band and created her
own unique style of music "Jazzspel", a mix of jazz and gospel, that
has universal appeal. Most of the band members are graduates of
Brighton University. When not gigging they teach music in their own
respective genres. The musicians' classical and jazz genius mixed in
the soulful sponaneity of Viola's gospel roots make a perfect blend for
the ears and the soul.
Some of the UK venues Viola has appeared on
or at are Top of The Pops, Pebble Mill, Soul Train, Jules Holland,
Ronnie Scott's, Never Mind The Buzzcocks and currently a residency at
Joogleberry's Playhouse in Brighton.
The new single will be
released on WORLD DOMINATION RECORDS and features remixes by some of
the latest and greatest producers including Matt Stedeford, Nathan
Bennett and
Future Force.
The Video will be broadcast on a number of TV stations around Europe, Canada and USA.
