New City Canyons' Recording Artist John Wilde Group To Appear at Tuscaloosa Venue

The John Wilde Group--just signed by New York's City Canyons Records-- will appear at The Booth in Tuscaloosa on October 10.

New York, NY (PRWEB) October 6, 2005

The John Wilde Group, the highly regarded British blues and rock band, appearing at The Booth in Tuscaloosa, Alabama on October 10, has just been signed to a multi-album contract by New York's City Canyons Records.

Styling itself as a record label without borders, the Manhattan based independent label has already signed several international artists including the UK’s ANEMO, whose album “slowburn” was released on September 6, as well as David Steele, also from the UK, and Valerian from Finland whose respective albums “Underneath the Ice” and “Intimations of Sorrow” were released late last year.

Also on the City Canyon’s roster are New York artists, Jen Elliott and Bluestruck, Timothy Dark and Sara Wendt. Wendt’s EP, “Here’s Us” is due for release next month.

The John Wilde Group, now touring the U.S., combines the edge and excitement of modern alternative rock with song-based, groove infused blues rock with a retro edge comparable to late Beatles (68/69) The Kinks, Humble Pie and Traffic mixed together with a heaping helping of the guitar and rhythm orientated, harmony laden groups of the early 70's.

A particularly exciting stop on the tour includes an appearance at Manhattan’s famous Red Lion on November 1 where the band will appear with its City Canyons label mates Jen Elliott and Timothy Dark along with some special guest stars.

More information about City Canyons Records and its artists can be obtained by e-mailing City Canyons Records or visiting the label's website at http://www.citycanyons.com where a preview sample of music from the John Wilde Group’s upcoming album, “The Pearl Sessions” may be downloaded. City Canyons Records is distributed in the U.S. by Avalon Distribution in Orlando, Florida.
