LOS ANGELES, CA. (Top40 Charts/ Luck Media & Marketing) - Talk about a dream "staying alive"! Twelve years after film icon John Travolta first went gaga over Nick Loren's (www.myspace.com/nickloren) rough demo for "Forever Be Cool" on the set of the blockbuster "Face/Off," the charismatic singer/songwriter's sensual R&B/pop ballad is about to hit AC, Hot AC and CHR Rhythmic stations across the U.S.

Penned and produced by Chico Bennett, a major force in pop music via his work with Madonna, Nelly Furtado, Hillary Duff and Usher, the instantly seductive ballad by the guy the industry is coining "the McDreamy of Adult Contemporary music" is the title track and second single from Loren's critically acclaimed debut album Forever Be Cool.

The album is already selling briskly via sites like iTunes, bestbuy.com and Loren's own label www.clearcutentertainment.com, and on November 18, Select-O-Hits will be distributing it to major outlets like Best Buy, Target and Wal-Mart.

This is all a far cry from 1996, when Loren was an aspiring artist who had gotten his first Hollywood gig as a stand-in for Nicolas Cage in "Face/Off." No doubt inspired by visions of Travolta's success as a singer in "Grease," Loren approached the superstar with his tape and Travolta loved the vibe.

The two hit it off, and when Travolta's stand in on the movie dropped out, Loren assumed the position. Since then, the two have become great friends and Loren has literally become Travolta's shadow as his official stand-in, double and stunt double in over 16 films. All the while seeding and nurturing his musical ambitions, Loren has developed a fascinating dual career, appearing in Travolta-starrers "The General's Daughter," "Ladder 49," "Be Cool," "Wild Hogs," "Hairspray" and the upcoming "Old Dogs."

Besides Chico Bennett, Loren collaborates with a dynamic mix of veteran and up and coming producers-most notably, Jeeve (Santana, Darius Rucker, The Game) and Claudio Cueni (Immature, 2Pac, Boyz II Men) and fast rising Chicago based studio stalwarts Jay El and Marwan Abdula.
