Imagine Tina Turner singing Americana music. Now, stretch that image to imagine a voice that goes beyond this by blending roots, soul and R&B into a fresh, intuitive and well-written country music..that is Petrella's ground-breaking new CD entitled DREAMS OF THE HEARTLAND. In the whole world of AAA, Americana and Alt. Country, there are plenty of acts that sell hundreds of thousand (even millions) of units; but there is none that compare to Petrella. Dubbed "a true vocal power house who will lead you to believe that every song is sung by a completely different person" by Matt Yeager of the Morning News, Petrella's style melds hints of Aretha Franklin, Patsy Cline, Macy Gray and - yes - Tina Turner into a beautiful, versatile sound all her own.

She stimulates, intoxicates and rocks around the clock! 100 Proof Woman is an incredible Album blending roots, R&B with gospel into a fresh, intuitive and well-written Country-Soul fervor that is ground-breaking. Petrella has inked a distribution deal with TMG Street Pride records/Warner Music Group to distribute this album with a street date of April 18, 2008. In the world of Country and Soul, there are plenty of Acts that sell millions of units; but there is none that blend pure Soul and Country together as well as Petrella. On this Album you will find Petrella’s style melds hints of Aretha Franklin, Patsy Cline, Macy Gray and yes, Tina Turner all wrapped as a beautiful, versatile sound all her own. With songs like “Glory of Love”, her rendition of the classics “Every Time You Go Away” and “Don’t’ Let Me Be Lonely Tonight” as well as the Title track 100 Proof Woman, this album is surely award bound! Petrella hails from Hot Springs Arkansas where she grew-up singing in Church and having the fever to record, her first single (I Found Somebody) hit the industry trade publication CASHBOX at the 52.

Please submit your artist news and events to CountryHome Forum to help your artists to get well known better in Europe. If you do not have the time to submit your artist news and events by yourself, please send it me to: Ch.Lamitschka@t-online.de and I will submit them by myself to CountryHome Forum.
I know that many artists from North America don't have their music videos uploaded to German video websites. The most popular websites are MyVideo.de and ClipFish.de. That means your European audience does not have the chance to find them.
I understand that most of you don't speak German and are not able to upload videos because of the language barrier. If you would like me to upload your videos to the German video websites, please let me know.
Thanks
