Sylvia Tosun Newsletter September 2008 TOPS INTERNATIONAL CHARTS! Sylvia Tosun's new single, "Underlying Feeling", has made a huge impact in the UK... climbing to the top of Music Week's Upfront Club Chart to #2! #1 on the DMC World, UK, UK Club, World Commercial, and World House charts! #2 on the World Trance chart. Massive global DJ's such as Judge Jules & Armin Van Buuren are supporting the release! ****************** AN UNDERLYING FEELING, IN THE U.S.A. The international buzz of Tosun's new single has begun to reflect back to the states. JUST ADDED IN ROTATION: XM Satellite Radio Audio Rotation on Music Choice Video Rotation on LOGO Video Rotation on Music Choice ****************** Billboard Magazine Raves Juilliard-trained singer/songwriter Sylvia Tosun has asserted rare musical aptitude within the twirl community, gracing Billboard Hot Club Play with a trio of exceptionally crafty hits-"Sanctuary" and "Sleepless" in 2006, and "Head Over Heels" earlier this year. Entrancing "Underlying Feeling" is yet another instantaneous melodic amulet, this time conjuring the silkier side of her vocal prowess, sweetly proclaiming romantic intent. Soulshaker remixes maintain integrity, adding spicy instrumental charms (and delish piano tinkles), while the original mix conjures the sensual potential of Saturday night. "Head Over Heels" demonstrated Tosun's charms as a millennial must-have, but she bounds forward here-not to mention a (YouTube) videoclip where she dresses the part of a near-dozen ethereal fantasy figures. "Underlying Feeling" delivers eight cylinders: melody, production, performance, attitude, visual, beauty, innate talent and persistence. If you hadn't yet noticed, a star is born.-CT ****************** Sylvia DEFECTS to the UK The Sted-E & Hybrid Heights remix of "Underlying Feeling" has been licensed by Defected Records in the UK to be featured on their upcoming "GOA IN THE HOUSE" compilation.

Antigone Four News UPCOMING SHOWS Antigone Four has been invited to play with Joan Jett and the Blackhearts this FRIDAY NIGHT, 10.24.08, in Morristown, NJ Joan Jett & Antigone Four The Morristown Community Theater 100 South Main St. Morristown, NJ 07960 Antigone is on at 8PM sharp! GET TICKETS ONLINE NOW or call 973-539-8008 10a-6p Hi everyone,For those of you who missed the Troy, NY show earlier this month, we had a great time with our friend Trina Hamlin sitting in on harmonica. You can check out the Storybook jam with Trina and the band, including footage of the "blackout" mid jam on our Antigone Four You Tube Channel. Check out this clip of the Storybook jam just as the electricity came back on and the club worked to get lights back on the stage. You may notice about a minute into the clip that Kristen looks more pregnant than usual. That's because she announced from the stage that she IS indeed expecting a baby next February! More dates before year's end?We are strongly considering booking a few more dates before the year is up and will keep you all posted on any live show dates we may add in the coming months. We've been having a great time with friends sitting in at recent shows and are strongly considering adding a 5th member, so any upcoming dates will likely include our artist friends. We're looking forward to the new year with some <hopefully> big changes (we'll see...) and big announcements (babies)! We want to thank all of our fans for sticking with us during this transitional time and hope you stay with us as we move into the next phase of things. In the meantime, come out and see us play with Joan Jett and the Blackhearts this Friday night in Morristown, NJ (our friend, Nini Camps, will be sitting in). See you soon! Kristen, Cathy, Dena & Jen

Kendall Payne News Christmas has come EARLY for those of you who digitally download your music!!! It is official; BOTH my new albums are available for digital download RIGHT NOW!!! Just got to www.digstation.com/kendallpayne and you'll see them. To purchase, click on the album and follow the instructions. You'll have to sign up really quick and enter your credit card info, but it is SAFE AND LEGAL so don't you worry your little head. Then it's a matter of minutes before it's blasting through your speakers! YAY!!! If you've been totally out of the loop, here's the scoop! In July of 2008 I recorded two new albums. I rented out a church for a week, on the first Sunday I played a live worship concert for a couple hundred of my friends and fans, I repeated that recording the next Sunday just to make sure we got everything we needed.... That album is now called "That's Why There's Grace" It's a live worship album filled with songs that I (didn't write- except the title track, but never the less) love! Monday-Saturday of that recording week, I decided to make a Christmas album. No use wasting all that fancy equipment, right? For 3 years now every December my husband, Tyler, and I have hosted a "Christmas-Carol-Sing-a-long" party, where all of our nearest and dearest gather round the piano and sing the classics. It was my dream to recreate this 'feeling' on the cd. So there aren't any 'bells and whistles' on this album, just vocal and piano, and I LOVE it!!! Some of you aren't digital downloading people, and your saying right about now, but I want to hold the cd in my hands and look at the pretty pictures and read the liner notes! So to you I say, I'm sorry, you're gonna have to wait another week. (sniff sniff) BUT, I PROMISE I'll let you know the SECOND it's available in hard copy form. You'll receive another email just like this one, but with more info. CDBaby is my online distributor and it just takes them longer to get things up and running. And for those of you who are partial to itunes, sadly it takes about a month and ½ to get everything up on itunes, soooooo.... I suggest checking out www.digstation.com/kendallpayne Ahhhh the joys of being an independent artist! What can I say? Well, I guess I CAN say I'm glad to be an artist of any kind, independent or not! I am truly blessed to have you all in my 'life'; you who support my musical endeavors. I do hope you enjoy these two new records, they both come straight from my heart! Enjoy! and much love, Kendall Payne (aka Kp)

Antigone Rising Hi everyone! We've got 1 more big show before the end of this year, plus a HUGE online store special that you don't want to miss! Antigone to Feature Shannon McNally 12.18.08 - NEW YORK CITY! Over the past few months we've begun a really great friendship with singer/songwriter Shannon McNally. Many of you may know her from her years on Capitol Records. We know of her from years on the road traveling in similar circles, and as of late our friendship has turned a bit more collaborative. Shannon is originally from Long Island, NY so her roots are based in familiar territory, though she now claims her home down south in Mississippi. It reflects in her cool vocal style and guitar playing. We're putting together a great show of music with Shannon, including Antigone songs you'll know, a few Shannon McNally originals from past recordings, and hopefully 1 or 2 originals we're working on together! To find out more about Shannon McNally, read this great review of her 2005 Capitol Records release, Geronimo, that ran in Rolling Stone Magazine. Also learn more about Shannon on her websites. Antigone Feat. Shannon McNally Thursday night - 12.18.08 THE BITTER END, NYC 147 Bleecker St. (bwn LaGuardia & Thompson) ACTUAL SHOW TIME 9PM for more info. call 212-673-7030 -Kristen, Cathy, Dena & Jen Antigone Rising/Four

A Request From Cassidy Dear Friends, I hope 2009 greets you with open arms. A new year always feels like a fresh opportunity to achieve the things that may have gotten away from us in the previous year. For me, 2008 was a year of change as I parted ways with Antigone Rising and branched out on my own, beginning my solo career with The Cassidy Project. This transition has been scary at times, yet immensely rewarding for me as an artist. Your words of support have allowed me to continue. Since beginning The Cassidy Project, I've been getting so many wonderful emails asking when the studio album is coming as well as requests from across the country to come and play. As you know I, like thousands of other artists, am independent and rely solely on the fans for support. This is where you come in. I can't do it alone but together we can make it happen. In order to record the studio album and tour, we need to raise $25,000. This will go to studio time, the musicians, duplication, promotion, and tour support. This figure is low, but I have found generous contributors to donate their time and talents to support our cause. Any donation that you would be willing to offer would be so appreciated. There is no amount that won't help. Please see below for details about how to donate, and what you can receive for your contribution. I know that these are tough financial times. Whatever you can do, even if it is attending a performance to show support or writing a kind word, I am eternally grateful. Have a happy and healthy new year. Please see the rest of this newsletter below for upcoming shows, a live radio interview on January 14th, and downloads on Amazon.com. Love and thanks, Cassidy cassidyproject.com/donate/Upcoming Shows!January 16th Canal Room w/ Sasha Dobson 285 W Broadway New York, NY 10013 (212) 941-8100 February 7th Tin Angel 20 S 2nd St Philadelphia, PA 9pm Tickets $15 February 8th The Birchmere w/ Over The Rhine 3701 Mt.
