NEW YORK (Water
Music Records) - Take three UK-born Trance music sirens, add one international pop star and then mix with two highly respected and renowned producers/ remixers and the concoction -
Soda Club is quite refreshing! Summer is here and so is the American debut of Soda Club. Comprised of
Hannah Alethea,
Andrea Anatola and
Charlotte Day along with special guest vocalist and Australian dance music mainstay Gina G. Soda Club's CD, Anthem Alert, was produced by Andy and Pete Lee, of Love To
Infinity fame. The record is in stores nationwide and in Canada on Water
Music Dance, a division of Water
Music Records on July 20th, 2004.
Anthem Alert contains 14 trance anthems and three remixes plus a bonus DVD featuring the hit videos that received massive rotation on "The Box" in England plus live gig footage, making of the videos and interviews from the "Box Talks." The record also has a mix of previously recorded "anthems" and new songs which were written by Andy and Pete Lee along with Charlotte Day.
Soda Club's first single "Keep Love Together" debuted at No 18 on the Billboard Hot Dance Singles Sales Chart in June and is still on the chart. It also first entered Soundscan's Top 200 singles chart at #114 for the week ending May 23rd and continues to chart. The song is a remake of the Love To Infinity Billboard dance chart No 1 and features Andrea on vocals. It was also a Top 25 hit in the UK for Soda Club. A second U.S. single, "Heaven Is A Place On Earth," with Hannah on vocals, is available commercially on August 31st.
Gina G., who is fresh off the hit UK TV series "Reborn in the USA," is featured on the songs "Show Me (U Luv Me)" and "Burnin' Up."
Soda Club's music is also being marketed to the sports world. Every league and sports venue (NHL, NBA, NFL, MLB, WNBA, Nascar, NCAA, Rodeo, AFL, AHL and MLS), in addition to all of the major broadcasting outlets (ESPN, NBC, Fox Sports, NFL Films, etc.) received a compilation CD in May and July which includes music from Soda Club.
In addition to the mailing, Soda Club's Anthem Alert CD was given out at a recent conference held earlier this month by Scoreboard Operators and Game Entertainment that was attended by operations and entertainment heads for all of the sports teams/stadiums/arenas.
Members of Soda Club will be in the U.S. in late Summer/early Fall to promote Anthem Alert stateside. Their music has already received a nice response in England and the group's featured performers Andrea and Hannah have been touring Europe in support of the CD.
Anthem Alert is in stores across North America on July 20th, 2004. The CD is on Water Music Dance, which is a division of Water Music Records and distributed in cooperation with Varese Sarabande by Universal Music & Video Distribution.
