Why this name?
Our band name expresses our love for music that is created from the passions of our heart n'soul
Do you play live?
we play every chance we get regionally, and every moment is special...
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
it expands the availability to a broader audience, which makes dreams of sharing our music possible.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
we are not looking to be signed, but if the opportunity present itself it would have to be under certain terms and conditions. It's always better to stay independent Do it yourself Less headaches, less issues. I'm trying to help bring up my Dad's label Sounds of Good News Inc. Fo'life!!
Band History:
About AJCole-lectionz.....
Andrew John Cole (243yrs) was born on July 15th, 1982 to Carl & Dianna Cole (Regional Music Ministry Business Professionals). Every since he was 2 years old, he displayed tremendous Talent in Music Rhythm, making “on the beat” sounds with his mouth and tapping on various surfaces with his big hands. At the age of 3, he actually began playing a full drum set at his Grandfather’s Church (Dianna’s Dad, who purchased the kit for him). By God’s Amazing Grace, Drew rapidly excelled in the percussion field, playing in Church Services, Concerts and professional recording studios by the age of 7 (the Bible .. for perfection). It was only a matter of time before he began to fulfill his destiny to become a Mega-Musician (with Multi-talented relatives on both sides of the Family). After attending Christian Educational Institutions throughout his Elementary, Middle and High School years, Drew became interested in continuing his busy schedule working in the Family Company, Sounds Of Good News (SOGN). After exploring post-secondary Education options, God inspired Drew to pursue Internship with SOGN. Currently, Andrew Cole is sharing his God-given Multi-Talents with the World through his “live” performances and Recording Productions (inc. playing Drums, Keyboards, Bass, Guitar and “Secret” Vocals)...with Humility and Excellence. Moreover, he is soon to be a National “Positive” Force.
About Lucy.....
Luciana is one of Rockford’s best-undiscovered local talents. Known for her
sensual seductive vocals as well as her smooth flowing lyrics, She has captivated audiences wherever she goes. Luciana has performed in a variety of places around Illinois that include;
Rockford, Chicago, Palatine, and Joliet, it also includes Indiana, Michigan, and California. She has made appearances on cable TV, has been featured in newspaper articles, and been interviewed by the media concerning her talent. She has also performed for The Booker T. Washington Fair (Booker Fest), The National
Black Women League (The Black Family Reunion), The Juneteenth celebration, and The United Way foundation in Rockford.
In April of 2003 she was recognized for her singing and songwriting abilities
when she received Rockford’s RAMI Award for composer of the year. The Chicago native has been involved in theatrical productions since high school. The majority of her co-staring roles as an actor of a comedic nature helped
expand her creative stage offerings.
Luciana has two years of vocal training under her belt, along with a year of
training in drama. Performing has always been one of her passions; she’s been writing since the age 15. Music was her guide that sheltered her from life's situations. Chicago became too overwhelming for Luciana so she moved to Rockford where she was more able to focus on a musical career.
Luciana made her mark as a backup singer for a well-known Rockford band
called, Bea Brady rock-n-soul revue (now known as Bellinia). They performed at
local nightclubs, private parties, weddings and casinos. Inspired by the response of
the audience she decided to step out of the shadows and become a solo artist. Luciana continues to astound and captivate her audiences, and hopes that the future will open the doors of success in this long journey ahead.
