Here’s some of the early feedback for “Stay All Night”

“It’s catchy as hell, has big chunky riffs with a devastating lead guitar - 5/5” David Farrell – Planet Mosh “This is proper rock n’ roll the way it should be made.

Ballsy, bold and tighter than a drum and has your head nodding from the get go.”

Adam Onslaught - Metal Nation Radio “They sound superb.”

Scott Munro – TeamRock “Stone Broken have it all. Huge chunky riffs, massive infectious choruses & killer production.

Definitely one of the strongest heavy rock bands currently on the circuit. Ones to watch!”

JOHN LIPSCOMB AND ADRIANNE LUGO The Painting and The Piano, by John Lipscomb and Adrianne Lugo, is set to be released in February 2016.’”

T

he Painting and The Piano is an improbable story of survival and love.

Growing up more than a thousand miles apart and worlds away from each other, Johnny and Adrianne seemed to have all that a child could ask for. However, the demons of their respective mothers would tear their young, fragile lives apart.

Holly. Both are involved in the AA/Recovery community.

Adrianne currently works at a recovery house and Johnny continues speaking, sponsoring and helping others in recovery.

Praise for The Painting and The Piano: “Two adults overcome damaging childhoods and addictions to find each other and rebuild their lives together in this affecting debut memoir.” - Kirkus Reviews.

Eventually, destiny would bring Johnny and Adrianne together, but first they had to endure the painful toll that alcohol, drugs, and a negligent court system would take on them.

With parts of Adrianne’s story ripped from national news headlines, their story takes them from the depths of despair and near death, to their first serendipitous introduction and the moment each knew they were finally safe.

“Have you ever read a book, that upon finishing, you just knew would be a story that would stay with you for a long, long time? Well, that certainly was the case for me when I finished the last words of The Painting and The Piano… Authors John Lipscomb and Adrianne Lugo have done a splendid job in telling their unique stories in a wonderfully intertwined way that pulls them both together. The stories, though difficult, are told delicately, and will grab readers from the very

Filled with hope, inspiration and humor, The Painting and The Piano is an unforgettable story of pain, loss and the undying human quest for happiness. Told as a tandem narrative, Adrianne and Johnny’s stories are unique, but share parallels that create a taut and emotionally compelling narrative.

luna rosa una Rosa are a quartet hailing from Corby Northamptonshire.

Rosa brings a raucous sound that the music industry has been missing for far too long.

Big beats to shake your cranium, groovy rhythms, guitars that scream and wail like a banshee. Walls of sound that force the people to move, all laced with anthemic lyrics.

Luna Rosa bring an Alternative/Indie sound that crosses over into various genres to create something new.

Forming in 2014, Luna Rosa were quick off the mark getting a set together and racking up almost 80 gigs within a year.

In 2015, Luna Rosa traveled the country while playing all over; coast to coast. Gaining airplay from the likes of Tom Robinson on BBC6 and various other stations. November saw the release of their single “Fever” and their self-titled debut EP. In 2016, Luna Rosa are touring for their self-titled debut EP to really push it out there with the hopes of recording another EP that would be ready for the summer time.

lex, a Soul/R&B vocalist and actor is no stranger to the entertainment scene. Having started his entertainment career at the tender age of 7 years old, he toured throughout the southeast region with his siblings.

Alex has a growing worldwide following due to his #1 hit singles titled, “Hope For Us” and “Love Line”, as well as his Top 20 Billboard success, “Don’t Walk Away” with his brothers, A7, and his electrifying, soulful, engaging performances.

Alex’s polished lyrical styling and dynamic energy is a breath of fresh air with a very earthy twist that transcends multiple audiences everywhere he performs; including two (2) of the Presidential Inaugural Galas, Premier of Bermuda Gala, Premier of Ireland Gala, as well as many other prestigious galas, schools, colleges, corporate events, and festivals worldwide.

Most recently, Alex performed at the Macy’s Thanksgiving Parade in NYC. Alex has not only headlined his own shows, but has graced stages with entertainers and actors, such as Al Green, Bobby Rush, Eric Benet, John Legend, Kirk Franklin, Lamman Rucker, Leon and many others.

In addition to Alex’s music career, he started his own music program for students, ACT: Arts Conservatory for Teens. By creating ACT, Alex is giving kids between the ages of 11-18 the opportunity to express themselves freely and encourage them to be creative while refining their artistic skills in a professional environment; a chance Alex himself was never given.

ACT also serves as a support group between academic institutions and parents; ensuring that students are prepared to pursue higher education. It

has a 100% graduation rate, and a 100% college placement rate.

Alex firmly believes in an artist’s social responsibility; the accountability of empowering local communities through partnering with organizations that will support the cause. For Alex, it’s his ACT program that provides the platform for that social responsibility. He’s made it his duty to empower the youth of socioeconomically challenged communities worldwide.

“Please Come Home for Christmas, is one of my favorite holiday tunes”, says Alex. “This holiday, I am dedicating this song to the women and men who often leave their homes and families to serve our wonderful country. It is one of my ways of saying thank you!”

Eventually, Alex plans to have more ACT’s; each in a major city, throughout the U.S. and abroad.

Arriving just in time for the festive season and family gatherings, Alex’s recent Holiday song “Please Come Home For Christmas” appears on the album “A Classic Holiday” and Presented by MBK/ Sony Entertainment.

Other Featured Artists Include: ALICIA KEYS, TYRESE, BRANDY, ELLE VARNER, COKO, JUSTIN SKYE, GABI WILSON, AND MANY OTHERS!!!

Alex’s soulful and invigorating rendition of “Please Come Home for Christmas” brings in the holidays with a body rocking, toe tapping, head bopping excitement!

avvy, fun, creative, adventurous, determined and delightfully unexpected are a good start, but adjectives begin to run out well before facets of SaraBeth’s artistry do. A force-of-nature Texan who is already building a meaningful presence as a singer, songwriter and entertainer, she is a virtual lock to take the next step – if only because she hasn’t missed one yet.

Earning fans one show at a time, landing considerable regional media exposure, scoring two nationally charted singles, developing a base in her native Texas, expanding it nationally and even internationally with a successful U.K. Tour in 2014, SaraBeth has made astounding strides in a very short time. And the release of her self-titled EP and aggressive first single “I’m Sick Of It” will surely carry her even further. Unusually, however, for someone who’s gone all-in as an artist, music wasn’t her life’s goal.

Raised in the Dallas area, SaraBeth found joy in music, to be sure. “I always loved singing,” she says. “My first song was ‘Frosty the Snowman’ and my mother says it

running for your life exercise versus running

INTRODUCTION It’s amazing to me to see how many untruths there are within and surrounding the medical profession. Despite the rigors of getting into medical school, its intense curriculum requirements and long training hours, people listen to TV and movie personalities for advice or some muscle bound trainer who barely got out of high school. Myths, incorrect ideology and even downright corruptible advice to sell something is all around us. For me, one of the biggest TRAGEDIES is running and it almost snuggles up to Shakespeare.

1.

People run for many reasons but none of them make any sense unless a lion is in pursuit. Studies have reported that power walking (get heart rate up) is just as beneficial health wise as running but

won’t wear out your knees, hips or ankles in the process. So why do people do it? A false sense of betterment, Pea-cocking, and forget about those endorphins because these molecules have been found to be too big to get into the central nervous system so they don’t effect brain enjoyment.

running gear

2.

If you have any doubt about running and people knowing what they are doing, let’s look at running sneakers. First there was the “minimalist” ones, to be followed by the “maximalist”, to “FAT” soles, to “FLAT”

soles, to the “MIDSOLES” to God knows what’s next. Nobody knows but everyone is an expert and mostly to sell you footwear.

For you runners out there, I’m sure you are running out of money and closet space too because of all that footwear. The fact is, there is no “real” running shoe because you’re “Running out of Time”.

THE TRUTH

If you want maximum benefit from exercise, “DON’T RUN”.

By the way, you can break it up 20 minutes here, 30 minutes there, as long as it adds up to 3 hours weekly. One more thing. It’s been shown that excessive exercise, running, causes a free radicle avalanche in your lungs that can lead to pulmonary fibrosis (scarred lungs) so if you insist on running, make sure that you take a bushel of antioxidants every day and get that oxygen tank ready!

Beauty Tips for Christmas Tips for looking your best on Christmas Eve!

make the skin look good and fresh. By the time Christmas Eve

On Christmas Eve many people go out to parties or visit with families. It is a time to be around others and to spread joy. When going out on Christmas Eve a woman wants to look her best. There are some tips to help a woman look great for this special evening. She will be looking as good on the outside as she is feeling on the inside.

Do Not Forget Sunscreen When the temperature is cold and winter has arrived many people do not think that sunscreen is needed. This is a big mistake.

Just because a person is not spending hours outdoors does not mean the rays of the sun do not reach them. Every time a person is heading outside they need to apply sunscreen. This is important to do even on cloudy days. Sunscreen will help keep the body protected and will also help keep the skin looking great.

Use Lip Color In the winter lips tend to dry out. They can become cracked which can be painful at times. Adding Chap Stick will help hydrate the lips but often Chap Stick does not come in a color.

For Christmas Eve a lip shade with a little color is going to be needed. To keep the lips hydrated while still looking good select a lipstick that has moisturizing properties. Usually this information can be found right on the package. Popular colors for Christmas Eve include pinks, reds, and even a coral tone.

A little bit of lip gloss can also be applied for an extra shine.

Exfoliate

De-stress

comes around the woman will be looking her best at the party.

The holiday time can be very stressful. There is so much to do and there is limited time to get it down. Also everything is very expensive which can put a big dent in finances. In order to stay looking good for Christmas Eve it is important to handle this stress. There are procedures that can help a person relax. A massage is a great way to unwind. When a person is not feeling stress their skin will be healthy looking and they will have a glow. When feeling the holiday pressure take a minute and do something to help get rid of the stress.

Stay Hydrated When a person goes out for the holidays including Christmas Eve they may have an adult beverage or two. Or several. Alcohol dehydrates the skin making it look tired and dull. A person needs to remember to drink plenty of water. This will replenish the body and allow the skin to stay healthy. Water is important for the glowing look as well.

A person should increase their water intake to help keep the skin looking good especially if they know they are going to be celebrating.

Do Not Overdo It As a woman is preparing for this night she may add additional steps and products to her skin care routine. This is something that should not be done. Adding additional products can irritate the skin and cause redness. She should stick with her usual ways. It is also important to keep up with this routine. Around the holidays there is so much to do that things often get overlooked. She should continue to clean her face and skin as normal.

Exfoliating the skin will help keep it looking fresh. When a person

Monthly inspiration Recently I heard my 4 year old daughter crying in her room. I kept calling her and asking why she was crying but she kept on.

Eventually, I found out her drawer would not fit back into her dresser so she thought she must have broken it.

She tried to fix it on her own but was unable to and so she started to cry.

Call on Him! Run to Him! Cry out to Him! He can handle it!

He is able!

“Call upon Me in the day of trouble; I will deliver you, and you shall glorify Me.” (Psalms 50:15 NKJV) You can do all things through Christ. You can make it, you have what it takes.

Be Inspired! With Love, Eloho

When I figured out why she was crying, I said “You should have just come to me and said ‘Mum, I think my drawer is broken, and I’d have fixed it for you.” Eventually, that is what I did.

It got me thinking, ‘how many times we try to fix things on our own without calling out to God for help!’ Our Heavenly Father is just waiting for us to reach out to Him and ask for help!

This is for everyone reading this! Be encouraged! He can fix it!
