Los Angeles, CA. (Top40 Charts/ Off The Edge Productions) - Paul Marturano, the off-the-wall comic/accomplished pianist from Philadelphia who recently appeared on American Idol and caught the nation's attention as Paula Abdul's 'Stalker' is reaping the benefits. His company, Off The Edge Productions, LLC has generated thousands of dollars on the internet with CD and digital song sales through his website www.paulpiano.net
Marturano has signed a ringtone deal. Stalker and his other songs are available on most major carriers and he has released new audio and video versions of Stalker on Itunes with the help of producers that have worked with several major artists such as Nelly Furtado. The song will be released to over 450 radio stations nationwide and a portion of sales will be donated to IDOL GIVES BACK as a thank you to American Idol!
Marturano has used his celebrity status for charity, adopting homeless animals out to loving homes on a Philadelphia Radio Station and has played and appeared at several events for animals for not only his organization, Loli's Place, Inc (www.lolisplace.com) but for other animal organizations as well.
According to Marturano, he is grateful to American Idol for all of the success which is 'greater than he could have dreamed'. Marturano reviewed American Idol each week for Clear Channel Radio, has appeared on several TV shows, is in talks with record companies and licensing companies that will spread merchandise and his songs across the nation, and this fall you will most likely see him starring in his own TV show. The show is currently being pitched to cable and major networks by a well known TV production company.
Marturano's agent began booking Paul's outlandish comedy duo on the comedy circuit and Watch Out!!!!!! because Marturano's completely clean Billy Joelesque band Paul Marturano and the Toasty Walkers will be touring the college circuit come this fall.
Marturano states, 'When I went on American Idol, my goal was to make America laugh and give them something that they will never forget seeing. I think I've accomplished that. So far, America and, because of Youtube, the world, has only had the chance to know the comedian inside of me, Now, I am working to entertain them with the rest of who I am.'
