7th heaven Newsletter October 2009
7th heaven Newsletter October 2009
Welcome to the 7th heaven October Newslettter
Busy sums up this month. Most of the work being done is away from the stage. We have been working in the studio recording TONS of music. So this newsletter will be brief so we can get back to work on making music. Look for our new "U.S.A.-U.K." DVD now available when you purchase our "U.S.A. - U.K." CD.
New Music Video for "Still Be Here"
Our NEW "Still Be Here" music video is now online!
This video tells a story of Keith falling in love and has cameos of each band member thru it. Shot in one day in various locations. The girl in the video is a paid actress/model. This video is not suited for kids.
Check it out here:
http://www.7thheavenband.com/pages/video/musicvideos/stillbehere.html
It is also on our YouTube, MySpace and Facebook pages.
Radio Interview and 7th heaven spins
I just did a interview with The Kat 105.5FM in Kanakee, IL that will air this Thursday at 8pm. So if you live in the south suburbs, tune in. They will play "This Summers Gonna Last Forever" & "Better This Way" off our "U.S.A.-U.K." CD. The website is: http://www.kat1055.com
For those who can't pick the station up, it will be streaming off a website afterwards, I will put that interview on our website and in our next months newsletter for all of you to hear.
7th heaven on WXRT?!?!
Yup... can you believe WXRT played 7th heaven? Not just once, but twice this past week. What makes this a interesting event is that we don't really fit into the demographics of the station. However, the DJ Richard Milne who does a show called "Local Anesthetic" decided to spin "Better This Way". So a HUGE Thank You to him for that. Ironically, it was a DJ from 101.9fm (a station that SHOULD be playing 7th heaven) that we met at Millennium Park this summer who told us about Richard, so Thanks to Jeff Corder as well.

Email Jeff at 101.9 The Mix and tell him to spin 7th heaven: jcorder@wtmx.com

It is also where 7th heaven first got it's start by it's first "club" show. We were 15 years old at the time. Come out and see Tony DiGiulio, Richie Hofherr, Chris Senior, Nick Cox and Michael Mooshey play a couple songs from the past. It should be a great night to remember. We'll be on at 12 midnight.

7th heaven LIVE on the net RIGHT NOW!
October 9, 2009 we played Shark City in Glendale Heights, IL, a place we play often where we play a long set of originals and covers. Perfect Mix Sound did a webcast that night that people around the world tuned in and watched.. how cool. It even has our 30 songs in 30 mins medley. Since we have fans around the world who can never see a full show, or at least a club show of a mixture of things, we thought we'd share the cool video with all of you. Check it out here: http://www.ustream.tv/recorded/2324647

NEW ORIGINAL CD & DVD - U.S.A.-U.K. IS NOW AVAILABLE!
Our new original CD called "U.S.A.-U.K." is now available on iTunes. It is also available thru our "store" on our website and at all shows. The CD is $10.00 and contains 18 songs. If you only get one of our CD's, this is the one you should get. The entire CD can be heard on our jukebox. This product now comes with a DVD of all of our music videos off this CD.
Some reviews:
· Great songs are the heart of any great record and this album features great songs. - MelodicRock.com (Australia)
· It's hard to find something wrong with this U.S.A. - U.K. 100/100 - CrossRocks.com (France)
· Splendid 2nd release from the awesome US melodic rockers, which kicks out the sh** of the latest Def Leppard releases. - AORHeaven.com (Germany)
· In my opinion one of the best releases of year 2008. - Hardsounds.it (Italy)
· A remarkable piece of work - RockAvenueRecords.com (Japan)
Another good review of "U.S.A. - U.K."
Melodic.net (Sweden) just did a review of "U.S.A.-U.K." and gave it a good review:
"The Chicago based AOR band 7th Heaven is a bit like the town Reno, they're the biggest little band in the world with sold out records and national tours every year without a major label deal or airplays on radio. The 18 track album U.S.A - U.K is the first one with Keith Semple who replaced Andrew Blake in 2006, 6 songs from their 2003 album Silver has been re-recorded with Semple for U.S.A - U.K but we also get 12 new songs from this extremely underrated AOR band.
There was a documentary made about the Canadian metal band Anvil that became a blockbuster movie in the theatres this year, that told the story about a band that has struggled over 25 years without getting big. 7th Heaven is Anvil of AOR, bandleader Richard Hofherr writes songs that could've been recorded by Def Leppard except that Leppard is huge and 7th Heaven is not.
Songs like Better this way, Still be here and Electronic Karma should be Top 100 hits if there was any justice in this world."

7th heaven Newsletter September 2009
Welcome to the 7th heaven September Newslettter
What a great summer we had! We have all shared so many good times and memories for a lifetime. To see all of you come out and support the band has been amazing and while we just did a huge workload we aren't slowing down at all... in fact we have TONS going on in our world. We are starting to work on a new original CD that we hope to have done by the end of the year. We also just started working on our HUGE box set that we'll be releasing early in 2010 (more info on that later). We also just shot a video for our song "Still Be Here" that we should have done next week.. so look for that. So here's a few more things we have going on.
New Music Video for "This Summers Gonna Last Forever"

Welcome to the 7th heaven August Newslettter
There's times when the stars seem to align and a certain type of synergy seems to be working. Right now that is what our world is like. In the history of the band we have not had so much momentum. So many of you have so kind to come out night after night and support us. It really is appreciated. We don't always have the time to chat or tell you thank you, so THANK YOU!!!! :)
Why aren't you guys huge? On Radio? Signed? Etc...
Well, this is a interesting question we keep getting asked over and over again. The answer is a difficult one to answer but I can tell you that the reason we were just on WGN was because of YOU! That's right... a few of you took the time to call the station and tell them to have us and they contacted us. So when we tell you to call the radio and tell them to play us, it will work if we all work in numbers. If you think we should be somewhere email or call the place and tell them to have us or play our music. You would be surprised how often this actually works. A few of our shows have happened because a few of you contacted the people in charge and told them to check out 7th heaven... let's keep that going.. it's working.
YOU are our best salesmen.

 Michael Jackson R.I.P. We lost a GREAT performer last week. Michael Jackson was one of the best performers ever. The collection of accomplishments he made was amazing. He was a MAJOR influence on me as a performer, producer and writer. I always respected that he would stop at nothing to put his best foot forward and thought every detail of his work needed to be the utmost best. I respect that work ethic. When people die I think it's safe to say that in one way or another each of us stop for a second a reflect on our own lives. Michael Jackson shows me that the single most best thing one can do for yourself is to achieve. Achieve the goals you set for yourself and after you die, your accomplishments will stand on their own and no one can take that from you. They are more important than money or stature. When I think of Michael Jackson, I will always think of accomplishments. Thanks MJ! |

 Rain? Cancelled shows? This past week one of our shows was canceled due to the threat of rain. Many of you were curious if we were playing or not. We have our calendar all over the place. However the single best place to come to see if a show is canceled will be the front page of our website. I will always update our website as soon as I know if the show will be canceled. Many times the show won't be called until we are at the place, which prevents me from giving you fair warning, but when I can I will always change the home page on our website and the tour page. If you are unsure, check our website. Will also post on our Facebook page. |
