14 MP3 Songs
ROCK: Folk Rock, POP: Folky Pop
Details:
"This new record was made to promote world peace and understanding...and God knows we need this record NOW!"
Listen and you will see.....
This "off the cuff" live show remark from Danny has become the "calling card" for "Four Chord Wonders" - the first official album under Danny''s own
name away from critically received Mothership known as The Sorentinos.
Danny felt uneasy calling the new music as The Sorentinos since longtime sidekick bassist and buddy Rob Ruiz decided to "rest" from the band. As many
know, once a Sorentino always a Sorentino and no one really quits or can in the end even if you are fired! As The Godfather''s Michael Corleone says, "Every
time I want out....they keep dragging me back in!" - True words as you will find out.
"Four Chord Wonders" on The Major Label is the logical progression with newly road-tested songs built to last for high mileage and durability as shown by
audiences'' eager response. If you play it, they will want it.... Even if it isn''t recorded yet!
Incredible as it seems, Danny continues to perfect and raise the standard of his songwriting lyricism this time adding more cutting-edge humor and transparent
truth which is universal to all - so much so that it makes you hurt and laugh out loud at the same time.
The lead track "Sensitive Singer songwriter" sets the tone somewhat sarcastically followed by honest tongue-in cheek humor "That Would Be Me"
balanced by the poignant reflection of "A Good Day Now" - strong contenders already with radio play are "It''s People I Can''t Stand" (unfortunate that a
critical swearword can''t be aired - so we conveniently placed a friendly version at the end of the album) as well as multi-cultural truth of "Do What She
Says" - many more of Danny''s life observations round out the album for a truly colorful album. The exclusive website only Danny solo album called "So
Low" freed Danny on a certain level to look at himself and see where he stands in the songwriting universe hierarchy.....and we''re glad he did.
Danny Sorentino''s observations of "life as it happens" through songwriting has continued to be the strength and dialogue which brings fans into "the world
according to Sorentino". A world which, remarkably mirrors everyone else''s - the same joys, hopes, frustrations and downright confusion we all go through;
like it or not. But once you''re in....you''re in for good.
Danny adds, "I have always thought of myself as a writer first and a musician second. The music is the method I use to deliver the message and hopefully with
ever year that goes by, I get a little better at delivering the message".
Recent Sorentino members Kenny Susan on drums and background vocals and Russ Kerger on keyboards with now long time AWOL UK-based guitarist
Steve Lee and new bassist and old friend Kent Fossgreen all added their parts to the record. The sound is complete as ever. To back-up the Corleone quote -
Rob Ruiz adds bass to "It''s People I Can''t Stand" - see what I mean, "once you''re in...you''re in for good."
The San Francisco Bay Area artist has remained on a steady course -- a potent mixture of guitar based musical influences ranging from the Beatles and
Rolling Stones to Tom Petty, Bob Dylan and Neil Young to actually combine into something uniquely Danny''s own. Simple, straightforward lyrics relating
universal feelings in a timeless manner. All the goodness without the fat - nothing wrong with that -- neatly wrapped in a tidy value-for-money package.
"The End Of The Day" (2001) was a coming together of sorts and seventh album in a string of acclaimed releases by The Sorentinos on The Major Label as
many Sorentino members from all the years participated in the making. The album was voted Top 10 Best Album from fans'' votes on https://www.tradebit.com,
https://www.tradebit.com Chief Editor Sue Cavendish''s Top Album Of The Year and heralded in many others throughout America and Europe distributed by
Evangeline/Universal.
"All Good Things..." (1999) and "Family" (1997) were critically acclaimed and brought huge favor from both sides of the Atlantic. "Welcome To The
Past," (1996), "What We Dream" (1995) and "Obviously Five Believers" (1994) add to the impressive CD catalogue. Dan''s prolific songwriting has never
meant of shortage a material to record.
Staunch Tinomaniac''s radio KRSH/Santa Rosa CA continues to air tracks matching most superstar acts including the awarding of the coveted "album of the
week". London''s Time Out "Venue of the Year" winners the 12 Bar Club and The Borderline have all but adopted the band offering unprecedented support in
the UK scene which also includes the BBC Radio''s "Whispering" Bob Harris (an English institution) among many others.
Sorentinos songs have so far graced no less than four "Melrose Place" episodes including the opening credits which are normally reserved for artists such as
Sting or John Mellancamp. Other songs have been used in films "Lover''s Knot" starring Tim Curry and Jennifer Grey, successful indie film fest movie
"Follow The Bitch", and was soloed in CBS (US) Movie Of The Week "Co-ed Call Girl" starring Tory Spelling.
All this creates for a unique band calling America and the UK home and who continue to take on the world on their own terms.
A Sorentino favorite saying is "Life is what happens in the meantime....". It continues for sure.
