New York, NY (Top40 Charts) You simply can't argue with the list of legendary artists that the members of
Radio Exile have either performed on stage or in the studio with - Paul McCartney, Bob Dylan, Hall and Oates,
Allison Krauss, Billy Idol, John Waite, members of Pink Floyd, Styx, Journey, Van Halen, the Rolling Stones, and
Black Sabbath. And working with these renowned names has obviously rubbed off on their sound, as evidenced by the unmistakably classic rock sounds heard throughout their self-titled album, and their recently released video, for the track "No Pity on the Highway�
Charlie states, "'No Pity on the Highway' just kind of captures that great classic rock sound of the late 70�s, with Dave�s Bonham-esque intro and Kenny and Jimmy�s great guitar riffing." Chandler adds, "It makes you feel as if you were rolling down the highway, so the lyrics kind of developed out of that, but kind of taking on life as being the highway that you are travelling down."
Comprised of members Chandler Mogel (Lead and Backing Vocals), Charlie Calv (Piano, Keyboards), Jimmy Leahey (Guitars, Backing Vocals), Kenny Aaronson (Bass), and Dave Anthony (Drums, Percussion, Backing Vocals), the group has enlisted the help of such studio vets as Grammy-nominated engineer/producer Steve DeAcutis (Vanilla Fudge, Cyndi Lauper, Corey Glover, etc...), producer/A&R man Steve Lunt (Britney Spears, �NSync ,
Joan Jett ,etc...), and mastering engineer Alan Douches (Fleetwood Mac, Yes, Train, Pete Townsend, etc....).
And the music press has already taken a liking to this fast-rising band, as evidenced by the following glowing quotes:
"Occasionally something will sneak up and hit you so hard you wonder 'where the hell did that come from'?....If there is a 'must have' album this year, here you have it boys and girls." ROCKTOPIA (UK)
"You�ve got to hand it to Charlie Calv...he delivers classic melodic rock records....an unstoppable tour de melodic force. A terrific debut album from the guys, with a major production and some very memorable songs." MELODICROCK (AUSTRALIA)
"The buzz in melodic rock circles round
Radio Exile has become so loud over recent weeks.... one of the better melodic rock acts to arrive this year" SEA OF TRANQUILITY (USA)
Undoubtedly, the praise will soon translate to connecting with the rock masses, and
Radio Exile's self-titled debut is the perfect introduction.
