Lorenzo to Play Two Shows with Fuel

While Lorenzo figures out what their live schedule will be for 2013 in support of their new album, Ignition, the band play two dates next week with Fuel.  Fuel, who have hits including "Shimmer," continue to tour extensively and the Lorenzo/Fuel dates make a great billing.  Leading up to the shows, Lorenzo meet this weekend in Cincinnati for rehearsals for Fuel, and possibly a few more dates before the end of the year.

Lorenzo's "Ignition" Out Now and Draws Sparks at Radio

Lorenzo's long-awaited new album, "Ignition," is out, and as expected, gaining traction at radio.

It's very early in the game for "Ignition," but fans and radio alike are reacting enthusiastically to the new disc.  Spearheaded by the group's first single and video, "Not Ready to Say I'm Sorry Yet," Lorenzo has picked up airplay heavily in the midwest and east, including Canada.  Spins have been steadily increasing and there is no reason why the momentum won't continue into the western region.

Led by singer/guitarist, Marko, the band has been redefined over the last year with the likes of Stuart McConnell (guitar), Aaron Farrier (drums) and Heathen mainstay, Jason Viebrooks.

As the story at radio builds, the band has its eyes set on a healthy tour beginning by early next year.

Five Finger Death Punch Grabs Gold Again with 'American Capitalist'

Five Finger Death Punch's latest album, American Capitalist, has been certified Gold in the United States.  ('Capitalist' was certified Gold in Canada, earlier this year.)  American Capitalist is 5FDP's third Gold album in as many releases and should cross the 500,000 in sales in the U.S. very soon, if it hasn't all ready.  Coupling strong support at radio with songs such as 'Under and Over It' and 'Coming Down,' and successful touring, the album hit the half-million mark in the shortest period of time of all the group's releases.  The album was co-written and produced by Kevin Churko.

In This Moment's "Blood" Debuts at #15

In This Moment scores its first top 20 album with "Blood."  ITM opens at number 15 on the Billboard top album charts.  Kevin Churko co-wrote and produced the new release.  Key touring (including with Five Finger Death Punch) certainly helped fuel sales of the band's new album.

Habana Eva Finally Gets Released in U.S.

"Habana Eva," the Fina Torres ("Woman on Top")-directed film has finally gotten a commercial release in the U.S.  Airing on cable outlets such as HBO, the critically well-received romance/comedy apparently is being well-received by viewers.  Cisco DeLuna co-wrote the score to this Venezuelan picture.

New ITM Album, "Blood," Due Out August 14

The new In This Moment album is due out August 14.  Kevin Churko teams up with the band again for  "Blood," which is also the first single, out now.  Churko co-wrote and produced the upcoming release at his Hideout studio.  Kane Churko (Kevin's son) writes on four of the songs, as well.

Airbourne is in Las Vegas writing with Kevin Churko for the band's new album.  The Aussie rockers are looking to build on their success from their last album, "No Guts. No Glory."  Writing sessions are at Churko's Hideout studio.
