DC FONTANA release their debut single December 1st!
A double A-sided single, "THE CONTESSA" / "SNAKE CHARMER" will be available from ALL download sites or as a beautiful 7" limited collectors' edition record available from www.dcfontana.com
Taken from the eagerly-anticipated debut album "Six Against Eight" the sizzling single is out on the dctone label as a pre-Christmas cracker.
THE CONTESSA is a hip-shakin' instrumental screamer that is already detonating dancefloors across Europe with its Hammond & horns attack that leaves you breathless with its amphetamine-like attack.....
SNAKE CHARMER's foxy vocal from Karla Milton complete with risque lyrics and a fizzin' psychedelecised groove hammers home the message that DC Fontana are serious contenders.
Produced by long-time Julian Cope guitarist & producer Donald Ross Skinner, mixed by his younger brother & ex-Primal Scream drummer Gavin Skinner and recorded at Echo & The Bunnymen's studios in Liverpool, England, this double dose of sonic medicine is the perfect tonic from the usual stale festive fare on offer.
The digital format should be available on all the usual sites including I-Tunes, Amazon, Napster, Play.com, HMV, Tesco etc....
And the physical vinyl comes on deluxe HEAVYWEIGHT vinyl to weigh in with a punch.....
The album will follow sometime early in 2010 (dates to be announced) either as downloads or a pristine CD complete with a deluxe booklet.
We know you got soul!!! Really looking forward to tonight - always a joy to play the yardbird with soul food cafe & Che Groovara. With Rev Chunky it should be twice as funky! Stay on the good foot,
