Warrior/Universal Releases Changes By Lareau On July 3, 2007

New York, NY. (Top40 Charts/ Warrior/ Universal Music Group) - Warrior/Universal Music Group Distribution announces Changes, the major label debut of Lareau featuring singer/songwriter Larry Lareau, drummer Darrin Payne, lead guitarist Pete Gool, bassist Roger Christopherson, and keyboardist Anthony Brown on July 3. The album comes with a bonus track, 'Change My World,' mixed and mastered by three-time Grammy-winner F. Reid Shippen

The band—from the Jamestown area of Western New York and the Warren area of Pennsylvania—hearkens back to an earlier era of bands like The Eagles, The Byrds, Buffalo Springfield and America, on into other such musically-inclined acts as The Fray, Maroon 5, and The Dave Matthews Band where the emphasis is placed on the actual music, composition and harmonic structure.

In this age of style over substance and studio trickery masquerading as talent, Lareau is like a cool mountain stream. The band's title track, 'Changes,' was among the most added songs on Adult Contemporary radio in the country for the week of June 11, 2007, in such distinguished company as Paul McCartney, Gwen Stefani and Bon Jovi, according to industry trade magazine Radio & Records. 'Changes,' in fact, reached No 10 on FMBQ's AC chart, and is currently No 33 on Billboard's AC chart and No 35 on the Mediabase charts.

"We are pleased to be working with Lareau," commented Warrior President Jim Ervin. "They are a group that demonstrates artistic vision from both a songwriting and performance perspective."

Lareau's music is a feel-good easy-listening' blend of sophisticated harmonics, catchy melodies sung in Larry's earthy and warm baritone, intricate musical interplay and an overall sense of total joy, complete with uplifting lyrics and a get-you-out-of-your-seat backbeat.
