| 'New Update' |
| |
Dramatico are pleased to announce the
signing of 2 new artistes:
Andrea
McEwan is a songwriter, singer, musician and actress.
She completed a Bachelor of Dramatic Art at N.I.D.A. –
Australia’s premier drama institute, and then worked
extensively in theatre and television in Australia. In 2006,
after moving to the UK, she was signed to Dramatico Entertainment
as a songwriter when a demo of her songs found its way into
the hands of Mike Batt. Early in 2007, she collaborated with
Katie Melua on some songs for her then upcoming album. Out
of their successful sessions came two tracks, “What
I Miss About You” and “Dirty Dice”, which
appear on the album “Pictures”. Andrea is currently
working on her own album which will be released by Dramatico
later this year.
Batt says: “There
is a strong, womanly thread to Andrea’s lyrics, and
her tunes and voice lend her work something of a Joni Mitchell
quality”.

Florence
Rawlings
Dramatico signed Florence Rawlings to a 5 album record
deal, 6 years after she first contacted Mike Batt at the age
of 13!
"She had a phenomenal voice even way back then,"
says Batt, "but it did not seem sensible for her to be
recording until she had developed and finished her education.
In the same week, I had just met Katie Melua, and it was she
who I signed on that occasion, but I always remembered Florence,
and kept checking her out every couple of years, asking her
Mum to bring her in and sing stuff. A few months ago it just
seemed that she was ready and so we are planning an album
to be recorded soon. The album will be recorded in an unusual
way compared to most albums these days. We will perform each
track with live rhythm section, horns and backing vocals,
to get a really authentic "soul" atmosphere. Florence's
voice and musical leanings are well suited to a raw soul-based
approach. We may even televise the sessions live as they happen.
More on this as our plans develop.

Here for Florence's myspace page.
 
'Voices In The Dark'
We are also pleased to announce the Hamburg premiere of Mike
Batt's 'Voices In The Dark'.
An audio visual experience at the Planetarium brings to life
the music of Mike Batt. This production will tour other Planetariums
throughout the world. It combines Mike's music with spectacular
and innovative computer graphic animations. Visit the German
website here
(An English language site is currently being developed).
'Philharmania'
Dramatico has acquired the masters to the previously unreleased
(outside Germany) album ‘Philharmania’, which
was made for Stella Music in 1998.
It is an interesting mixture of performance of well known
rock songs by a wide variety of artists (arranged for the
London Philharmonic Orchestra and a rock rhythm section).
It has just been added to iTunes and you can download it,
if you like it.
