Talented Teen Music Group to Showcase At Hard Rock Café In Memphis
Alex Tintinalli Band Launches New CD during International Blues Challenge
Memphis, TN – January 21, 2010 – Award-winning teen recording artist, Alex Tintinalli and his super-group of teen, musical prodigies will be showcasing their talents to an international audience consisting of record labels, media, festivals, managers, talent buyers and of course die-hard blues fans tomorrow afternoon at The Hard Rock Café in Memphis on historic Beale Street as part of the 26th International Blues Challenge (IBC).
The band will also be releasing their new CD “Live At The Gig Theatre” and will perform songs from that CD during their set. The 8-song, 45 minute CD was recorded live during a concert in November 2009 hosted by the Grand River Blues Society in Kitchener, Ontario.
The IBC represents the world's largest gathering of Blues acts (39 US states, 12 countries, 5 continents and 453 performances in 21 venues) represents an international search by The Blues Foundation and its affiliated organizations for the best blues bands, solo/duo and youth acts ready to take to the international stage. This year there will be 110 bands, 82 solo/duo acts and 32 acts (a total of 730 musicians) that will fill the clubs up and down Beale Street today through Saturday as part of this prestigious event.
Originally referred to as the young, “blues guitar whiz”, singer-songwriter, recording artist, Alex Tintinalli has since grown to become a passionate, soulful vocalist and song-writer leveraging his arsenal of tastefully melodic guitar licks in a style of modern blues-rooted music all his own he likes to call “Funk-Hop”.
Since releasing his debut blues album, Nothing To Lose in 2007, this talented 17 year old has released two studio CDs, two live CDs (most recently in January 2010) and a DVD. Tintinalli has also won numerous awards for his guitarmanship, vocal ability and songwriting skills. Alex credits his local blues community for giving him the opportunity to develop as a credible artist while being schooled by some of best musicians.
Backing Alex is a group of tremendously talented, young Canadian musicians who have cut their teeth in the thriving blues scene in their hometown’s of Kitchener and Waterloo, Ontario. During the summer 2009 they performed together at blues festivals in Windsor, London and Kitchener, Ontario through to Mont-Tremblant Quebec and Lewiston, New York and received much praise for the incredible musicianship and professionalism they exhibited as they brought their audiences to their feet in applause and awe.
The Alex Tintinalli Band will be performing at the Hard Rock Café on Beale Street at 3:15pm on Friday January 22nd. The band will be selling their CDs at their performance.
