Artist description The sound varies from the mellow and soulful to raw, rhythmic power - sometimes in the same song. The music itself is eclectic but not too pretentious to reveal the honesty and of a good pop song. The style pays tribute to classic influences but, unlike alot of modern rock, still maintains a distinct voice. Stay tuned for Neal Pinto's upcoming EP "the Unauthorized Autobiography" which is scheduled for release in late 2003. For more information visit the official website at www.NealPinto.com
