   About Heaven and Earth
Heaven & Earth is on hiatus right now as Stuart Smith and Richie Onori have joined forces with bassist/vocalist Steve Priest to reform The Sweet. Please check out www.thesweetband.com for more info



Heaven & Earth, a blues based rock n roll band was formed in 1996 by British guitarist Stuart Smith after being offered a record deal by Samsung to record a solo album. The album, entitled Stuart Smith's Heaven & Earth which features some of rock's top vocalists such as Bon Jovi's Richie Sambora, Joe Lynn Turner (Rainbow) and Glenn Hughes from Deep Purple has been consistently hailed with rave reviews and is considered by some to be a classic rock mainstay.

The CD has also become a much sought after item among collectors and rock aficionado's throughout Europe and Asia.

Smith was classically trained from age seven and went on to be taught by Deep Purple's Ritchie Blackmore. He toured England & Europe extensively with his first professional band "Sidewinder" before moving to the States in 1983 where he joined the reformed "Sweet" and later formed the "Aliens of Extraordinary Ability" with Keith Emerson. In 1995 he put together Heaven & Earth.

After the first release, Stuart was offered a second deal by European label Frontiers Records, known for signing some of Europe's top rock "n roll acts. By this time, Stuart had made the decision to put together a more cohesive band situation and had enlisted the help of drummer Richie Onori who had already played on the first release. Richie, a well known and respected drummer, has played with such rock icons as Rick Derringer, Louis Johnson, Bobby Kimball (Toto) and also played with Stuart in the group "Aliens of Extraordinary Ability" with Keith Emerson of "Emerson, Lake and Palmer".

Stuart and Richie made the decision to go with guitarist/producer Howard Leese from Heart to produce the second album entitled "Windows to the World" which was released in 2001 (Frontiers Records) and again received rave reviews and solidified themselves in today's classic rock genre with their fan base growing ever larger throughout the world. In support of the release, the group toured worldwide and was received by large, enthusiastic crowds wherever they played.

Heaven & Earth are now hard at work with Grammy/Emmy Award winning producer Dave Jenkins on their latest release entitled: "Screaming for Redemption" which is being recorded at their own recording studio (Wine Cellar Studios in Woodland Hills). The CD is projected for release later next year on their own label, Black Star Records. The new label was the next logical step in today's independent label environment and has already secured other signings which include Howard Leese of Heart. Others soon to be announced.

With the bands strong European and Asian following and popularity firmly established, they are now breaking into the U.S. market, set on achieving the same level of success. Black Star Records, with distribution provided by Burnside Distribution Corp., has acquired the rights to the first CD (Stuart Smiths Heaven & Earth) and has released the CD as Heaven & Earth featuring Stuart Smith in the U.S. where it was never released, with two brand new bonus tracks featuring stunning vocal performances by Bobby Kimball of Toto and Joe Lynn Turner of Rainbow. The U.S. release date is January 18, 2005. A forthcoming release, Screaming for Redemption is scheduled for release later next year.

The band has been out playing live around Southern California at venues such as The House of Blues, The Key Club and The Canyon Club with singer Kelly Hansen at the helm but recently Heaven & Earth lost Kelly to Foreigner so they have recruited Keith St John (Montrose) as lead singer and are back out playing again.

In a musical environment dominated by pop corporate thinking, Heaven & Earth has stuck to its guns and continues to blaze its own trail knowing, believing and proving that there continues to be a demand for their style of music.

I’ve been a music journalist for more than 10 years. Over the years, many artists and managers have asked me what the best way to break into the European music market is.

Here are some things you can do:



Publish artist press releases, news, and tour dates to the CountryHome Forum on MySpace, http://groups.myspace.com/CountryHomeMagazine , CountryHome Forum is part of CountryHome, http://www.CountryHome.de , Germany's Premier Country Music Online Magazine. Everything you publish to the CountryHome Forum will be published in my weekly Newsletter which has over 80,000 readers.



Publish artist interviews in English to http://groups.myspace.com/CountryHomeMagazineInterviewsEnglish , interviews in French to http://groups.myspace.com/InterviewsAvecCountryMusicStars and interviews in German to http://groups.myspace.com/CountryMusikInterviews . All these groups on MySpace are part of CountryHome, http://www.CountryHome.de , Germany's Premier Country Music Online Magazine.



Send me CDs and DVDs for review and set up an artist interview with me. All reviews and interviews will be submitted to the magazines I'm writing for. More information for which magazines I'm writing can be found at http://www.MySpace.com/ChristianLamitschka



Upload artist videos to http://www.MyVideo.de and http://www.ClipFish.de . Both websites are like http://www.YouTube.com and uploading videos is free. The websites are completely in German. If you don’t speak German and need assistance, I will help you open an account and upload a video for 25 Euro. Each additional video upload for the same artist name and at the same video website is 10 Euro.



If you have more questions about the European music market or about any of the information I send to you today, please contact me at Ch.Lamitschka@t-online.de too.
