| Lael Alderman & Friends |
Originally from Alaska, and now based in Portland, OR., Lael Alderman has been releasing records since the early 90's. He was signed for a brief while as a "sensitive singer songwriter" to Geffen records. Following that, he made a name for himself as a rocking frontman and lead vocalist with The Bella Fayes. After the breakup of the Bella Fayes (which occurred as they began work on an album), he determined that a solo career was the path he wanted to follow.
Taking a laid back approach, most of Laels new CD was recorded in his home studio, with a little help from some friends. Producer extraordinaire, Gregg Williams, (Sheryl Crow, Dandy Warhols, Blitzen Trapper) played drums, provided advice on equipment purchases and studio setup, and also mixed "Of Birds Devils and the Heart" at his private studio.
Tour plans for the near future will include regional shows with the band, and solo shows abroad. In either context, Lael's great melodies are sung with finesse. His recent CD release show in Portland was a smashing success and allowed him to reconnect with old fans and make some new ones by giving out copies of the new CD, with hand packaged artwork, at the show. "I just wanted to get it out there, " he says.
Take the time to check out Episode 39 part 2 of the MastanMusic Hour. This is a better than average show, and a great way to preview Laels new CD and hear some exclusive recordings of new, unreleased songs as well.
