Jimy Graham is an Award-Winning Blues, Rock and Reggae Artist who has performed his music worldwide.

At age 8, he picked up the guitar and began playing melodies in his native state of New York. He found that he loved the many variations of sound that music had to offer; from the soul of Motown, to the truthful strains of the blues, the power of rock, to the allure of Caribbean beats.

As a teenager, he was overheard by a neighborhood musician that was working with Wilson Pickett. The neighbor encouraged Graham to audition for Pickett’s band; and the audition resulted in Jimy’s first professional job. The young artist received quite a break considering the guitar job was previously held by legend Jimi Hendrix. (Another parallel with the life of Hendrix would occur years later, when Graham would portray him in the production of “Morrison: A Rock Opera” at the Hollywood Palace).

Ever hungry to pursue his musical dream, Graham found himself traveling to the West Coast. There he performed and recorded with Los Angeles based Reggae band, Babylon Warriors. Jimy also had the opportunity to open for UB40 with Reggae Superstar Pablo Moses.

Zimbabwe Africa was to be Grahams next stop as a guitarist. As he was asked to tour with Reggae superstar Don Carlos for the legendary Black Uhuru. The tour was quite extensive and went extremely well.

After which, Graham returned to New York, and did session work with artists such as Peter Tosh, Dennis Brown, Grace Jones and Sly and Robbie.

After all this traveling and playing Jimy found he had developed a name for himself.

Next, Japan was calling. In Japan, Jimy performed with Japan pop icons TRF at the world famous Budokan. The artists performances as a solo artist also continued and he went on to play packed houses in other areas of Asia. Venues like Shanghai’s Piccone Club, Hong Kong’s Rock school, The Roomful of Blues in Singapore and both The Hard Rock Cafe and The Roadhouse in Macau, China were all on the performance menu.

Now known as an A list musician for soul, R&B, Blues, Rock and Reggae; Graham got the call to perform in Jamaica. Accepting the offer Jimy played around Jamaica and ended up selling out nights at Kingston’s trendy Red Bones Blues Cafe. Graham would later play main stage at Jamaica’s Jazz and Blues Festival 15th Anniversary in 2011. His performance electrified the crowd with a set that included a medley of the National Anthem of Jamaica and the Star Spangled Banner (With portions played with his teeth ala Jimi Hendrix).

RSP is happy to welcome Jimy Graham as a new artist and artist family member.

The music of Dark Rouge Park combines classic electronic SynthPop sound with thought-provoking lyrics and unique vocal styling. The lyrics focuses on the reality and sadness in life while promoting survival and coping.

“Parallel World addresses topics you don’t always hear discussed in other music, and they do so in such a deep, meaningful way,” describes one fan after hearing the album. “The music stays with you long after the songs are over.”

Even though, Dark Rouge Park formed in 2012, the band members have been on stage for 20+ years individually.

Thomas Sathmari’s first work, called Space Project was released in the early 90’s, followed by the second album, called “Space Project II”.

Thomas was a member of another band, called “Car Wreckers”, and in the 2000’s he was the songwriter, producer and keyboardist a special group, called MOTIVA.
This band plays classical Hungarian Folk songs, but the music is electronic/synthpop while the feeling and the overall voice follows the traditional Hungarian Folk.

Janos Karsky started his musician career as a Club DJ in various places, followed by a 2 year Radio DJ era. He started to work on the earlier song’s of Dark Rouge Park alone as a solo musician. He wrote instrumental songs under name Dark Light Shadow.

Edina Simon, the front person and the singer of the band has a very long musician and on-stage experience. She worked together with a lots of popular European and Hungarian bands as background vocalist, including a well known Eurodance group, called Groovehouse, and a Pink Floyd tribute band, called “Keep Floyding”.

Dark Rouge Park finally formed in 2012, when Thomas and Janos started to work together. Edina finally joined to the group in 2013 and they soon finished their first song, called Let Me Go.
Their songs focus to negative things, which are part of the life. Songs about deep depression, domestic violence and abusive relationships, they talk about the cyber bullying, the danger of the cyber dating and the negative side of the social media, death, lost love and sadness.

Of course, they try to help to get out from this negative situation, therefore the sad song always shows a happier outgoing.

Closed Circle is a band that incorporates so much and yet defies so many rock genres, that all you can do is listen and be amazed.

The band was formed in 2008 by three young guys (Doug Weiand, Felipe Durli, and Matheus Carrer Neto) who liked heavy rock and progressive music.
Felipe began playing bass at the age of twelve and from the beginning he listened to bands like: Guns n’ Roses, Iron Maiden, Metallica, Deep Purple, Dream Theater, and Rush. Then he turned his attention to bassists like: Billy Sheehan, Stu Hamm, Marcel Jacob, Marcus Miller, John Myung, and others.

Through the years he played in many cover bands and in one of these situations he met a friend, named Matheus. Although, cover bands kept them busy, there was a longing to make their own music and whats more instrumental rock.

Enter Doug, guitar extraordinaire at the age of fifteen. An artist influenced mostly by heavy metal and rock yet with the sensibilities and experience in jazz and rock fusion as well.

Now realized before their eyes was a sound and a focal point of music . Music that would embody a theme and concept approach for each songs rhythms, scales, techniques, and musical harmony an all rock framework.

Thus, the CD “Illusion Effect,” would be the result of this quest.

Then before the CD could be finalized drummer Matheus left the band.

Luckily Doug and Felipe would persist in the completion of the album and the search for a new drummer. The drummer they found after a world search was Devadip Chunga.

Devadip Chunga is a peruvian drummer taught by the great Peruvian drummer and teacher Christian Sakata.

Christian is a master, so therefore it is no wonder that Devadip is a drumming wonder himself. Brilliant in his drumming technique and skills Devadip’s influences are drummers like Horacio Hernandez, Thomas Lang, Dave Weckl, Gergo Borlai, among others. After that, he participated in the international competition “V-Drums Championship” organized by Roland and won the Latin-American V-Drums Competition in 2011.

Devadip, is also a sponsored Roland Artist, who has traveled around the world giving drum clinics. In 2013 he participated in another international competition known as “Big Drum Bonanza” hosted by international renowned drummer Thomas Lang and he won that as well. Always improving himself, he continued to study with other teachers such as: Virgil Donati, Thomas Lang, Chris Coleman, Dave Elitch, George Kollias, Jon Dette and Stanton Moore.

As if all of this was not enough, Devadip also appeared on the TV Show Peru’s Got Talent where he garnered thousands of fans even though he was second to the shows final winner.

Remus Tucker is based out of Denver Colorado and is a purveyor of fast moving Southern Fried Rock. His mix of good ole Southern Rock and Blues keeps feet stomping and butts moving. Tucker has played with the likes of Firefall John Lee Hooker Jr. and has always left crowds satisfied.

The artist’s influences are many, with vocal styles that are reminiscent of Freddie Mercury, Robert Plant, Geoff Tate, and Ronnie Van Zant.

Remus is also backed by some of the hottest musicians in Colorado, so here is some information about them as well.

Paul “P.D” Smith is the lead guitarist for the band and he pushes the envelope from melodic leads to downright ripping rock for this southern band. So, it is simply no problem to ride the line between back home old timey and in your face rebel music.

Rhythm guitarist Jimmie Clinton hails from the back woods of Tennessee and has moved on up to the foothills of Colorado. He learned his craft at the knee of his father, Jimmie Clinton Sr, who was a Nashville singer and song writer. Jimmie looks forward to making you get up and boogie at any Remus show.

Chris “Dr. Love” Love is a bass player who is a consummate professional who can get the job done. As a matter, he handles the guitar and bass maintenance for the band as well. Count on him to keep a bass groove going for Remus.

Drummer Robert Harris has been playing since the age of 10. Rob has worked and recorded with artists such as: Joe Satriani, Night Ranger, Cheap Trick, The Fabulous Thunderbirds, and Brownsville Station to name a few. He has now thrown his sun glasses in the ring with Remus Tucker and shows those fellas what rhythm looks like.

J.C. Russell is the backing vocalist for the band. A singer from an early age, she has graced national stages with her angelic voice and beautiful countenance. (Kind of makes you wonder how the heck she got roped into singing with these good ole boys.) Anyway, J.C. adds just the right flavor to the group.

Remus’s debut album, “The Remus Tucker Band: South of New Orleans” .

Originally from Zambia, Africa the Party Phreaks have made music that has indeed garnered attention and interest from Party Lovers everywhere.

There is no genre they will not include no matter whether it is Pop, Rock, R & B, Dance Electro, House or Hip Hop.

The group landed their first record deal with Westside Records in 2011. Their debut CD “Party Time” was soon followed in 2012 with a publishing and distribution deal through the British Label, Red Admiral Records.

Party Phreaks music is finding its way in the dance and party world and their social networks are beginning to reflect this fact. A month ago the group was ranked #1 on REVERBNATIONS Manchester, UK charts for (Dance / Pop & Hip – Hop / RnB & Rock). They are currently holding at #7 as of this writing.

The group also has over 3,100 likes on their Facebook page and growing.

Now it’s time to hear a bit from the band themselves.

Hi, my name is Zozi Jones and I am the ‘Party Phreaks ‘bandleader. I rap and I sing but most of the times I do both, I like to call it Rapsing, plus I am also a song writer…the kind that writes from the heart (if you know what I mean). Music has been an emotional roller coaster for me, especially at the time my style of rapping and singing was not recognized as a talent. I started writing songs at the age of 13. In 2009 I met my best bud Moomba Hamukwala  aka  M.R

Sippin  who believed  I was the greatest rapper alive. Together we set the hood on fire with our rap music, and even though our music then was all about pain and life situations, the hustle and the grind we also kept the fun part of music. I later met F.Biko and we worked hand in hand looking for everything from band members to publishers to labels.

I am pleased to say it was a miracle and a blessing to find three other members to round out the Party Phreaks.

F. Biko here and I am a guitarist, member and producer for the group. I first produced Zozi Jones’, ‘Soldier On The Battle Field’ and ‘Devil Dance In The Morning’. We then proceeded to write a party love song called ‘Loving Her Tonight’.  Although it was destined for a national television program we decided to keep the song and create a band that represented all the party people around the world. I love the experience of being a Party Phreak.

Work, Party, Work, Party….it’s your girl Kassy. I was born in a small town called Kabwe and my pretty mom taught me the best lessons of life a daughter could ever learn. I took all she taught me to heart and it has served me well. So, it is no surprise that I am still mama’s little perfect girl. I love wearing heels, a perfect hobby for me because I really love shoes (heels to be specific…Lol). My favorite color is pink and a little black too. I like to make myself look beautiful but most importantly I am comfortable in my own skin. Come rock – a – party with us!

So I’m the girl they call Luna, and they say I started singing before I could learn how to crow. I am a happy person and I love having a good time. I like to see things positive, colorful and I love to look for the fun side of life. I am the second to last born in my family but the youngest female. Can you say protected by fences! Some people say I’m crazy and weird but I just say “thanks for noticing” lol.
I love being a Party Phreak, Halla xoxo

Hi, I am A.R the newest member of the Party Phreaks. I love the music, the energy and being in this fun group. Keep the party going and make sure you’ve got plenty of Party Phreaks music on hand!

Party Phreaks Good Time music will get the attention of Party Lovers everywhere. No matter what color, creed or country. We all love to Party!
