New Hampshire band Little
Memphis is set to release their long-awaited
debut CD "Let Me Down Easy" on Wednesday,
March 12th, 2008 on East Country Records. Little
Memphis consists of core members Dan LaPorte
and Todd LeBlanc both from Lebanon, New Hampshire.
The duo has joined together to release some
strong rootsy country music as recommended by
Nashville producer Scotty Turner ((Slim Whitman,
Jimmy Bryant, Willie Nelson, Nilsson).
Little Memphis will kick-off
their cd release with a party on Friday, April
4th at Elektra Night Club, 66 Benning Street,
West Lebanon, NH beginning at 9PM. Nashville's
Dave Northrup (Travis Tritt) and Ray Whitlock
will join Little Memphis on drums and keyboards/background
vocals respectively for the this show. For directions
to the venue or more info, please visit http://www.electranightclubs.com.
As a precursor to the CD release,
LaPorte and LeBlanc will co-host the KIXX morning
show on Friday, March 7th at 7AM. LaPorte and
LeBlanc will also sing tunes from the upcoming
release during the show which will be simulcast
on http://www.kixx.com.
Strangely enough, Little Memphis
evolved from a band named Dan D and The Burning
Love. Dan LaPorte, out of a deep love of Elvis
Presley's music, set out with Todd LeBlanc to
form the tribute band. While the tribute shows
were fun, exciting and truly rewarding, Dan
and Todd wanted to push their musical boundaries
even further. They began working on recording
a project in Northern Vermont. Once the project
was done, they began sending it out to various
producers around the country.
Shortly thereafter, Dan and Todd
received a phone call from Scotty Turner, a
well-respected Nashville producer and publisher.
Scotty was impressed with the sound of Little
Memphis. There began many phone conversations
eventually leading to a meeting in Nashville.
Scotty presented Dan and Todd with the original
material from which they would select their
album songs. So in November, 2007, they began
recording their first album Let Me Down Easy
produced by Scotty Turner and engineered by
George Clinton (Shania Twain, Alabama, Martina
McBride) at Bayou Studio in Nashville.
Let Me Down Easy is available
at digstation.com and http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/littlmemphis.
