RadioIndy is pleased to present Hypnotiks with a GrIndie Award for the CD "In the Way"
"In the Way" is the two-song EP from Hypnotiks & Damien Lynch, a production duo from Northwest London that explores new possibilities with their music. The album features two versions of their medium tempo "In the Way," one edition with vocals and an instrumental version. The instrumental version showcases the creative programming of the duo, where inventive beats and drum loops are combined with many melodic textures and colors of sounds. The vocal version adds their intoxicating and hypnotic melodies to mix, layering well-delivered harmonies that provide a smooth feel and depth to the recording. Both versions are memorable and well-produced, with the focus being catchy hooks combined with syncopated drum sounds. This two-song EP is a great introduction to Hypnotiks & Damien Lynch, leaving the listener eager for more. Fans of hip-hop with a chiefly melodic sound will enjoy "In the Way."

RadioIndy is pleased to present David Cahalan with a GrIndie Award for the CD "Dedicated"
With the fittingly titled "Dedicated," David Cahalan pays tribute to the music of The Carpenters, for whom he is a former background singer. He modernizes each tune with his melodic, individual style, breathing new life into the original while making it his own. He opens the set with the familiar "Hurting Each Other," updating the standard tune with his modern style of pop. He gives the classic "Close To You" a contemporary flair with a bright, bouncing groove, and smooth lead and background vocals. His version of "For All We Know" is a touching ballad, featuring soulful vocals by Cahalan and a shimmering soprano sax melody. His rendition of "Superstar" features a great horn section and a brilliant string arrangement. "Bless the Beasts and the Children" is a wonderful duet, with Cahalan and his female counterpart in fine form. With "Dedicated," David Cahalan pays a suitable and proper tribute to truly great songs that were sung by Karen Carpenter. This is surely an album that all Carpenters' fans will appreciate.

RadioIndy is pleased to present Simavi with a GrIndie Award for the CD "Memories Of You"
"Memories Of You" is a noteworthy release by the male vocalist known as Simavi. Simavi gives us a look at the past and into the future, putting his spin on both the classic and contemporary. He breathes freshness into jazz standards, keeping the beauty and integrity of the original, yet making them his own by infusing his style, personality, and flair into each track. Simavi also self-produced the album, further highlighting his personal stamp on this collection. From the lush string arrangements of "Moonlight in Vermont" and "Love Looks So Well On You" to the swinging renditions of "The Way You Look Tonight" and "Fly Me To The Moon," Simavi is comfortable and at home in each setting. He is backed by an incredible orchestra of talented musicians featuring brilliant soloists, swinging horn sections, and well-crafted arrangements. His versatility is also on full display as he moves seamlessly through the Brazilian number "The Girl From Ipanema" and the more contemporary style of "To the Ends of the Earth." He also adds his sincere, heartfelt vocal style to the touching ballads "I Wish You Love" and "Memories of You." Simavi's "Memories Of You" will be enjoyed by fans of adult contemporary male vocalists and/or big band music.

RadioIndy is pleased to present Lauren Frost with a GrIndie Award for the CD "Words For The Birds"
Singer/songwriter Lauren Frost has created a fine collection of memorable pop songs with "Words For The Birds," an outstanding set featuring skillful musicianship, clean production and most notably, her soulful vocals. "Wait & See," "Take It Slow" and "Hello Lovely" are all great examples of her polished and refined sound, intelligent writing, and soaring vocal ablilities. The supporting cast of musicians is very talented, providing exceptional solos and support throughout. Listen to the funky swagger of "Heavy In Your Shoes" and the melodic pop of "Sangria Tale," where Frost's infectious personality really shines through. Another highlight is "Little Boy," which features a percussive groove and showcases Frost's ability to blend harmony and melody so beautifully. The remix version of this track will have you ready for the dance club. "Cheezits" offers a look into Frost's humorous side, and she gives a witty, entertaining performance by once again injecting her personality and style into the track. The album also includes the tender moments of "Whatever Happens" and "Drop Off My Heart" which are expressive, soulful ballads that showcase Frost's immense vocal range. This is an impressive release from a very talented singer/songwriter that is highly recommended for fans of female vocalists and melodic pop.

RadioIndy is pleased to present Paul Vincent Gandolfi with a GrIndie Award for the CD "Lifesketch"

It is apparent from just one listen that Gandolfi's intent and focus is on crafting well-written songs with wonderful harmonies, enjoyable melodies and clever arrangements. The personal, heartfelt lyrics in each composition hold significance and meaning.

"Endangered Heart" features an enchanting piano intro coupled with a mysterious, sincere vocal from Gandolfi. The production is transparent and clean, providing a product that is ready for mainstream radio. "Stranger Than Fiction" is a catchy, memorable song with interesting rhythmic changes. "The Poet & The Muse" is a deep, affectionate track with lyrical guitar lines and another passionate vocal from Gandolfi, again supported wonderfully by the background vocals. This album will appeal to the fans of pop/rock that enjoy simplistic instrumentation, meaningful lyrics and genuine, sincere vocals in the vein of John Mayer and Jack Johnson.

RadioIndy is pleased to present Paul Vincent Gandolfi with a GrIndie Award for the CD "Stir The Menagerie"
"Stir The Menagerie" by Paul Vincent Gandolfi is a well-written, well-performed indie pop album that highlights the sheer talent of the fantastic singer/songwriter. Paul has been to many places in his musical journey, including bands, musicals, and film scores. What comes from this effort is an intimate taste of great vocal performances, thought provoking lyrics, and fine arrangements. The album sounds fantastic, with vocals at the forefront, as Gandolfi has a very distinct voice that is, in turn, complimented well by the arrangements. One highlight is "Bleed," which opens with a gentle melody and evolves into an ear grabbing lyrical performance. You'll remember the words to this one in no time. "Show Me" is another standout that features a delicate piano progression and gives listeners an intimate look at Paul. A cover of Leonard Cohen's "Hallelujah" wraps things up and is the powerful finish to a powerful album. If you enjoy indie/pop/rock music, you will not be disappointed with "Stir the Menagerie."
