   About Ferras

Meet Ferras.

Ferras (pronounced Fer-AHSS) approaches a big pop hook the way a Formula One driver approaches a straightaway: he floors it. At each turn on the 25-year-old’s debut album – the sensual “Take My Lips,” the anthemic “Liberation Day,” the tour de force title track, “Aliens and Rainbows,” and the soon to be hit single, “Hollywood’s Not America,” to name but a few – it’s evident a daring young artist has arrived. While inspired by Bowie, The Beatles and Elton John, Ferras’ songs are infused with a distinctly personal sensibility.

Growing up in a small, southern Illinois town, Ferras always felt out of place. The feeling was only compounded when, shortly after his parents’ divorce, his father took him to the airport, promising a trip to Disneyland, but instead spiriting him away to his homeland – Amman, Jordan. Ferras took solace in the Casio keyboard his father bought him and began writing songs. His mother eventually succeeded in bringing him back to Illinois, but the sense of alienation persisted until they moved to Southern California and he began pursuing a music career in earnest.

Produced by The Matrix (Avril Lavigne, Jason Mraz, Korn) with Gary Clark (Natalie Imbruglia, Lloyd Cole), Aliens and Rainbows is a potent reminder that sometimes it takes an outsider to give voice to the emotions buried deep inside us all. And its message clearly resonates. Well in advance of its April 2008 release, Ferras performed on the “Today” show and lead single “Hollywood’s Not America” was tapped for two episodes of the hit Fox series “American Idol.”

Hear what America is saying about FERRAS...

“The new piano man on the scene comes off like a baby Elton on songs like Hollywood’s Not America” -People Magazine

“Aliens & Rainbows is an action-packed collection of high-gloss piano-pop production numbers in which the scenery counts for just as much as the sentiment.” - Billboard

“A star is born…” - Billboard

“The title track off the LA-based pop singer’s debut album calls to mind a certain “Paino Man.” - New York Post

“…recalls Elton John’s Candle in the Wind…” -USA Today

“Hollywood’s Not America will likely lead to instant stardom.. -Boston Herald

“Ferras offers a fabulous voice, beautiful melodies, gorgeous backing tracks, and solid story telling.” - The Bristol Observer

“Ferras effortlessly draws from Elton John, David Bowie and The Beatles, though his vocal prowess is refreshingly original.” - Gay & Lesbian Times

So my brother Markus just called me and asked me to listen on the phone while someone sang..(mind you, it was 2:30 a.m. my time)  I immediately  wake up and start to listen.. The song is " Purple Rain" by Prince.. But I've never heard it this AMAZING!!  It was sooo good it gave me the chills thru the phone.. THe entire song was just speechless.. When the song was over my brother asked, " do you know who that was"?  I said, " no".. " but whoever it was, let him know if  I was there he would have been going home w/ me after the show"!!  He went on to say" that was Ferras"!

I said, " OH MY GOD!! That song was beautiful!! 

I just needed you to know that you truely are an Amazing Artist!! Even @ 2:30 in the morning.. And i look forward to meeting you and watching you perform live..

Lots of love... Felicia Nicole Molinari~
