Music Unites sees music as a common medium that helps to unite diverse cultures in our own neighborhoods and transcend boundaries in the global community . Adding Universal Motown to the mix is a pretty perfect pairing as the label once famous for a specific and niche form of music has trancended their own boundaries to now offer up A-class artists from every genre imaginable. Taking their name from little known Australian beach in which they spent their childhood , Tamarama's Jay Lyon and Nicolas "Pottsy" Potts have nurtured a sound reflecting life on the shores of OZ. With a mix of folk, rock, and reggae rhythms, breezy melodies and easy going lyrics this new collection of songs will surely catch your attention. http://www.myspace.com/tamarama On the new Blue October album, Approaching Normal, Justin Furstenfeld, moves his band forward into confident new territory as a songwriter and as a storyteller. Steve Lillywhite, the producer synonymous with U2 and five-time Grammy Award winner guided the way and the result is an album that breaks the mold of whatever anyone may think Blue October is. http://www.myspace.com/blueoctober
