<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black">Multitalented DJ and singer/songwriter<b> Samantha Ronson is performing
</b>tonight at the House of Blues Parish Room (off of The Foundation Room) on Sunset. Samantha’s musical versatility and artistic depth are showcased in her debut album,
<b><i>Chasing the Reds</i></b>, via her own label, <b>Broken Toys Records,</b> which she will perform songs from at this show. Nearly a decade in the making,
<b><i>Chasing the Reds </i></b>is an account of heartbreak, compiled journal entries, compelling headlines, and every interaction in between. From the edgy, rock-infused title track, to the achingly sad
<b>“Love Song”</b>, to the windows-down sing-along anthems <b>“Sometimes When You Win You Lose”, “Half Awake”
</b>and “<b>Promise</b>”, this album, produced by Samantha and <b>Jimmy Messer</b> (Kelly Clarkson, Kanye West, Neon Trees), is a true testament to
<b>Ronson’s </b>songwriting prowess and ability to capture true, relatable emotions.
<b>Ronson </b>enlisted the contribution of a few friends in the recording of this album including
<b>Slash </b>on <b>“Love Song”</b>, <b>Wale </b>on <b>“Summer of Sam”</b>, <b>Alex Greenwald
</b>on <b>“Captain Jack”</b> and brother <b>Mark Ronson </b>to co-produce the ratatat party jam
<b>“Skyscrapers”</b>. (<a href="mailto:gina@pressherepublicity.com//janelle@pressherepublicity.com">gina@pressherepublicity.com//janelle@pressherepublicity.com</a>)
