Check out Errol and Kaye Leslie, one of RadioIndy's favorite Reggae artists

RadioIndy is pleased to present Errol and Kaye Leslie with a GrIndie Award for the CD "New Life"

"New Life" is the third gospel reggae release from impressive writer/composer duo Errol and Kaye Leslie. Originally from Jamaica, but currently taking up residence in Florida, Errol and Kaye smoothly incorporate Caribbean reggae rhythms into their gospel songs for their music ministries. The result is twelve upbeat and rhythmic tracks about the importance of Jesus in our day to day existence and the necessity of putting one's life into God's hands. Errol and Kaye, combined with the backing vocalists, create some great vocal dynamics on this album. Errol has a great booming bass reggae vocal, and Kaye a strong alto more lenient to the gospel end of the sound. "New Life" features great production quality. It sounds very clean and makes you feel as though you are in a Caribbean tent revival. "Caribbean Gospel Medley" defines Caribbean gospel perfectly with an attention-getting beat, great vocal layering, and lyrics about redemption. The title track, "New Life," is an Elvis-esque southern gospel track with great booming doo-wop vocals from Errol, more great vocal layering, and a classic arrangement. Overall, "New Life" is an accomplishment, as it combines the fun, upbeat sounds of the Caribbean with serious and heartfelt gospel lyrics. If the fusion of reggae with gospel appeals to you, I strongly recommend that you check out Errol and Kaye Leslie.

RadioIndy is pleased to present Lee Michaels with a GrIndie Award for the CD "My Life"

RadioIndy is pleased to present Lee Michaels with a GrIndie Award for the CD "My Life"

Pianist Lee Michaels has recently released his debut CD "My Life" which blends the soul of Motown with a touch of classic rock. Hailing from New Jersey you would expect to hear something in the manner of rockers Bruce Springsteen or Bon Jovi. However, Michaels serenades the listener with songs like "The Rain Will See Us Through" which is extremely influenced by the early sounds of Elton John. Michaels belts out some R&B with the song "Believe" with a nice balance between the electric piano and vocals. His vocals attain a quality reminiscent of the soul legend The Miracles while keeping his Barry Manilow piano ballads high in the mix. If you dig Sir Elton, you will dig "My Life" as it is a treasure of pop music embedded with artistic piano arrangements.

RadioIndy is pleased to present Ephrem J with a GrIndie Award for the CD "Latin Evolution"

Ephrem J's latest release "Latin Evolution" is a terrific mix of adult contemporary and Latin flare. Although the disc is sung in Spanish, any listener will want to hear Ephrem's crisp and clean vocals and the strong and solid rhythm section. The CD opens up to an upbeat start with the lounge grooves of the song "Tequero." Ephrem also gives the listener a few options as he displays two wonderful versions of his song "Ella." One version is a saucy salsa mix while the other has a mid-90's light rock tone to it. "Latin Evolution" is a great addition to any fans of Latin music and is well worth hearing.

"On The Levee Road" by The Delta Flyers (Acoustic/Blues Artist from Austin, Texas (TX))

"On The Levee Road" by The Delta Flyers is a pleasurable assembly of genuine acoustic blues tunes. The captivating, hook-laden musicianship and hearty vocal performances steal the show on this record. What's more, the prolific story-telling lyricism delivered by songwriter Stevie DuPree brings each of these tracks to life. The title track, "On The Levee Road," illuminates the controlled, passionate vocal performances that set this CD apart, while flaunting some nice harmonica solos. "Railroad Bill" assumes a more upbeat, energetic vibe, and exhibits a memorable chorus. Moreover, "Dancin' with the Devil" stands out as edgy and takes on a more electric sound.

"Naughty and Nice" by CRgruve (Rap/Pop Artist from Maine (ME))

CRgruve dishes up a collection of sharp R&B/Rap with a splash of Pop mixed in on their latest release, "Naughty and Nice." Not only are the songs smooth and silky as you will hear on "Lunar Dance" and "Water," but the vocals resonate with suave personality. CRgruve's witty character comes through with amusing lyrics on songs such as "Filfy (Father I'd Like to Freak)" and "Milf." With a driving beat and synth powered tones, "Trolling for Slop" hits the mark, but pay close attention to the lyrics as they are truly humorous and definitely one of a kind. Original and creative with dance floor abilities, these songs are groovin' to say the least. The musicality is excellent with a nice dynamic balance between vocals and instruments. Fans of R&B/Rap won't be disappointed when listening to CRgruve's entertaining album "Naughty and Nice."

Family fun and entertainment is just what Lanny Sherwin delivers on his newest CD, "Meltdown." Although geared towards children between the ages of 4-12, everyone will enjoy these wonderful pop songs, with their catchy melodies and lightly sprinkled country influences. Sherwin's lyrics are as encouraging & wise as they are humorous. For instance, in the title track, "Meltdown," he effectively sings about anger & connects to his young listeners with the wisdom of his advice. Lively and upbeat, "Granny's Got a Guitar" is not only funny but has a catchy, rock feel to it. "A Cappella, Part 3" shines with its fantastic harmonies in a song that celebrates the life of a musician. Sherwin has a gifted insight into the mind of a child and he uses his music to inspire a positive attitude, but it's his motto that really sums up his ability to relate to his audience on their level: "Don't Drive Parents Crazy." If you're looking for something new and original for the kids to hear, then pop in the CD "Meltdown" and before you know it they will be singing along.
