"Beau Hill is well-known among musicians for his knowledge, skill, understanding, and know-how," says David Knight, founder of Flynsolo. "Having Beau on board will help us make our next release 'Addictions' from great to excellent."

"Addictions" will be available for sale on January 20th, 2008.

Beau Hill Brings Plenty of Experience
Beau Hill is best known for his work with Alice Cooper, Bob Dylan, Eric Clapton, and Europe. For more than two decades, Beau Hill brings his experience and dedication to the entertainment business in a variety of roles. His experience includes recording artists, co-writing hit singles, record production with sales approaching 50 million units, fronting his own band, and artist management. In addition, Beau Hill was co-founder of Interscope Records; a Universal affiliate.

New Release "Addictions" is Addictive
Flynsolo's new release, "Addictions," brings an all-embracing mix of Americana, rock, classical, and jazz but never strays from the pop music idiom. The lyrical and musical themes are unique yet accessible, and they immediately resonate in the hearts and minds of all who listen. The new album boasts delicate arrangements, velvety textures, anthemic choruses, and flawless performances.

"With this truly addictive CD, we want to cast a gentle light on the problems that comes along with being addicted," explains David Knight. The "Addictions" album is dedicated to people in recovery of any kind of addiction.

Contribution by Prolific Musicians
Flynsolo recruited for "Addictions" an all-star roster of some of the most well-respected and prolific musicians in the music industry. Liberty DeVitto wrote elaborate drum parts for the entire Addictions album.

"We replaced several broken drumheads from DeVitto's powerful and stunning performances," said David Knight. DeVitto is best known as the drummer who Billy Joel chose to work with for more than thirty years. In addition, DeVitto recorded drums on many hit albums and played in live situations with artists, such as Paul McCartney, Mick Jagger, Elton John, Meat Loaf, Cyndi Lauper, and The Carpenters.

Dr. Mike Deasy, one of the most recorded guitarists in the history of music, presents unique lyrics and melodies on the Addictions album. Deasy's guitar play can be heard on many hit albums from the 50's, 60's, 70's, 80's, and beyond. He worked with artists, such as George Harrison, Elvis Presley, Joe Cocker, Elton John, The Beach Boys, Ringo Star, Michael Jackson, Frank Sinatra, Barbara Streisand, and Simon and Garfunkle.

Jay Davidson plays sax, piano, and leslie organ in several Addictions tracks. Jays credits include his work with Whitney Houston, The Rolling Stones, Aerosmith, and Mariah Carey.

Other well-known artists who contributed to the "Addictions" album are Rick May (best known for his work with Depeche Mode, Andy Summers (The Police), and Michael Jackson), Lakieta Bagwell (best known for her work with Dolly Parton), Gerald Veasley (best known for his work with Grover Washington Jr., Miles Davis and Philip Bailey), Grace Little (best known for her work with Philadelphia International Records), and Freddy Villano (best known for his work with Widowmaker and Quiet Riot).

Recording sessions took place in cities from Key West, to Philadelphia, to California, and the distinct sound is the result of myriad collaborations with artists all over the world.
