Singer Ketty Lester has a career that spans music, TV, film, and stage. Her cover of Dick Haynes' 1945 hit "Love Letters" went to number five pop and number two R&B on Billboard's charts in the spring of 1962. The tune was originally the title theme from the 1945 Jennifer Jones movie. Ketty Lester was born Revoyda Frierson on August 16, 1934, in Hope, AR. She was one of 15 children born into a farmer's family. After winning a scholarship in 1955, she moved to California and attended San Francisco City College, majoring in nursing. Lester sang in church and the school choir, and performed in summer stock theater. She also appeared as a contestant on the classic '50s game show You Bet Your Life. Meeting country singer/comedienne Dorothy Shay at the Purple Onion club (where she was performing), Lester was introduced to producers Ed Cobb and Lincoln Mayorga. Herb Newman's Era Records released the resulting single, "I'm a Fool for You" b/w "Love Letters." DJs and listeners preferred the sparse, steamy B-side, making it a Top Five pop hit. The follow-up single, a cover of George Gershwin's "But Not for Me" from the musical +Girl Crazy, peaked at number 41 pop during summer 1962. Ketty Lester was issued that same year. It featured two singles, "You Can't Lie to a Liar" and a cover of Woody Guthrie's "This Land Is Your Land." Another Era single was "Fallin Angel" b/w "Lullaby for Lovers." She also recorded the upbeat "West Coast" b/w the ballad "I'll Be Looking Back" for Capitol ...

We first stumbled across Los Angeles hailing singer/songwriter Miguel Jontel in around 2007, as a featured guest on several tracks from fellow West Coasters Blu and Exile's collaborative underground classic LP, Below The Heavens. Fast forward five years and the performer, now going by the mononym Miguel, has a Soul Train Award for Best New Artist alongside BET and American Music Award nominations following his sleeper of a debut album, All I Want Is You -- titled after his J. Cole-featured heat rock single of the same name, produced by Salaam Remi. On November 28, 2011, Miguel made his first trip to the UK to headline at North London venue, The Forum, with a full-on show blitzed by spectacular lights, racy interludes and fresh renditions of fan favourites -- backed by a superb band which included the talented Thundercat, Brook D'Leau and Dru Decaro. SoulCulture TV were honoured to spend a night with the Prince-inspired artist and capture his antics from soundcheck to show, and everything inbetween, for our A Night With... series. Watch for a recap of the night, a taste of Miguel's live show, and interview excerpts sharing his views on the current shift in the sound of R&B/Soul -- plus new music to look out for from him.

New York, NY -- January 6, 2011 -- Rising dance music DJ/producer/vocalist Kid Alien's debut single "The Atmosphere" has been released today on Armada Music. Additionally, a new collaboration with Brazilian DJ/producer Klauss Goulart, "All My Sorrows (Rain On Me)," released 1/2 on Zouk Recordings. Kid Alien is a LessThan3 artist and is also the Editor-in-Chief of LessThan3.com. "The Atmosphere" made its first appearance in its remixed form on Armin van Buuren's latest installment of his legendary "Universal Religion" series, cementing the name of Kid Alien as one to watch in the international dance music community. Now, Armada Music, has released the original form, a dubstep-influenced banger known as the "Kid Alien & Starchild VIP Mix," as well as a radio edit. Also earlier this week, "All My Sorrows (Rain On Me)," Kid Alien's second collaboration with Klauss Goulart, was released on Armada imprint Zouk Recordings. "Rain On Me" displays a markedly more house direction for the burgeoning alien talent, and features soulful vocals without the "Kid Alien" effect present on "The Atmosphere." To date, Armin has featured the Klauss Goulart & Mark Sixma remix of "The Atmosphere" track on three episodes of his weekly "A State of Trance" radio show, one episode of his "A State of Trance" podcast, and the 2011 ASOT Yearmix. Klauss Goulart & Mark Sixma graced the remix that was released this week; the original and radio edit will be released in early January. Stay tuned for the ...
