Charming Pop Duo Set To Release Debut Album 'Hey! Hey!'=20
on March 17th on Decca Records
=20
New York, NY January 8, 2009-On March 17th, The Love Willows will mark
their major label debut with the release Hey! Hey! on Decca Records. The
twosome, featuring singer Hope Partlow & guitarist/vocalist Ryan Wilson
wrote and recorded the entire album in Wilson's attic in Atlanta.
Together they created an infectious collection of cheerful tunes filled
with contemporary power pop sounds.
=20
Hey! Hey! features 13 electrifying tracks that explode with an edgy
upbeat sound. With romantic narratives like the sweet "Gotta Make You
Mine" and the punchy rock tune "Mary Jane" the group shares the
happiness and struggles of their road to stardom with their audience.=20
=20
Partlow is no stranger to the pop music world having released her first
solo album through Virgin Records at sixteen years old and headlining a
tour with The Jonas Brothers. Wilson grew up in Atlanta, playing in
local bands until he auditioned as a guitarist for Partlow's touring
band a few years back. They immediately realized their shared passion
for the 60's style and mainstream contemporary pop music and with that
The Love Willows were born. Five months after the pair finished their
first album they landed a recording contract with Decca Records. Hey
Hey! is an amalgam of high energy pop beats and retro sounds that the
band describes as "happy music."=20
=20
The Love Willows' momentum is building already with Partlow featured in
the "Girls Who Rock" section of the February issue of Seventeen
Magazine. The duo also has key song placements in hit TV shows like The
Hills and The Real World. "Strut MyStuff" will be heard in the upcoming
episode of America's Funniest Home Videos airing on January 18th. This
past fall they did an extended promotional trip across the country
visiting key "Hot AC" radio stations as an introduction to the new music
and the first single "Falling Faster." The duo is planning a nationwide
tour in 2009 and will soon announce the line-up of North American dates.
