Milton is a New York City-based singer/songwriter known in clubs and college radio stations up and down the east coast for his hummable melodies, spot on lyrics, tight, groovy band and soulful, energetic live shows. His most recent CD Grand Hotel received heavy airplay across the U.S, staying several weeks in the National Top 20 Americana chart. The CD, produced with veteran producer Bo Ramsey (Lucinda Williams/Greg Brown) was praised in the New York Times and many other publications. The closing track "Booker" was featured as NPR's song of the day. Prior to Grand Hotel, Milton had spent two years playing gigs on the road, taking a short break to score the HBO documentary "Hard as Nails" in late 2007. With his second self-titled CD, released in November 2006, Milton had continued to expand upon the fan base created with his debut. His song “In the City” was named one of the best songs of the year by WFUV's station director Rita Houston. Milton has appeared on bills with artists ranging from Yo La Tengo to Norah Jones to Al Kooper. As a solo act or with his band, Milton has played sold-out gigs opening for acts like British pop star Jamie Cullum and singer/songwriters Colin Hay, Shelby Lynne and Joan Osborne. Milton continues to pack New York’s Living Room and Joe's Pub, where he and the band will play again in November 2009.

£leTriKa sounds completely different from any Metal band you have ever heard. The Brazilian rhythms and the Portuguese language added to the songs makes its style unique, giving birth to a new kind of Metal. If you are really looking for something new about Metal, you should check £leTriKa out!
Hugs from Brazil, Claudio David
