Hailing from Central Virginia - Fighting Gravity with their upbeat blend of reggae, ska and pop they have delighted fans in the college circuit for close to 10 years. But I think Billboard said it all with this review.. BILLBOARD MAGAZINE Review 10/24/98 - Noteworthy singles. It's payoff time for this Virginia-bred band, which has been wooing college crowds around the nation for more than a decade. With its first-ever single, a slick, beautifully sung testament to devotion, the foursome shows what it's learned since those early days. Musically the song features a comfortable, organic arragement, mixing bass drums and guitar (including some nice melodic hooks). What really sells this uplifting track, though, is the harmonies that swell throughout its crisply executed 3 minutes. The story is just beginning for this talented ensemble; the first boat is leaving the dock now. Be on it: triple A, modern adult, top 40 and hot AC. One of two songs produced by David Lowery of Cracker for the Y&EE CD. |

Hailing from Midlothian, VA, (see a trend I think more labels need to canvas the Central Virginia bands... but thats me) Rachel Leyco has been writing and performing regularly now for about 2 years. The amount of inate talent this young woman has is amazing.. With her smooth vocals, tight delivery and excellent back up band she breathes life into her songwriting. The thing that amazes is not only is she extraodrinarily talented, she is so at the tender age of 18. We are not talking a Britney Spears or Country Diva wannabe either. The RLB sound is very professional well written and adult in its style. With such a early jump on things this band is going to be huge. |
