ANTHONY DAVID MAKES THE GRADE: Noted Soul Singer/Songwriter appears on the cover of Billboard MagazineSophomore Album – The Red Clay Chronicles set for September 26, 2006(June 30, 2006)
Long Beach, CA -- Anthony David, Billboard Magazine Breakthrough Artist 2005 is making the grade again as he graces the cover of the July 1, 2006 issue of the venerable publication. Along with such notable underground soul artists as Eric Roberson and Frank McComb, David is considered primed for exposure beyond the underground Soul scene he’s conquered with his Bill Withers-esque vocals and acoustic guitar.
Anthony David first came to the public’s attention as a background singer for his hometown friend India.Arie under the name Tony Harrington. He also holds the distinction of penning one of her most popular tunes “Part of My Life,” a version of which appears on his 2004 Brash Music debut 3 Chords & The Truth. The lead single from Arie’s latest offering is also an Anthony David composition – the inspiring “There’s Hope.” David’s sophomore album due in stores September 26, 2006, titled The Red Clay Chronicles, picks up where his acoustic guitar driven debut leaves off and features an appearance by guitar great Earl Klugh, as well as “Words” a duet with India.Arie. “I am very humbled to be able to continue to share my music with the world every day. Having the support of Earl Klugh and India.Arie on this project is beyond words.” The lead track from The Red Clay Chronicles will be the cautionary tale “Stop Playn” which appears on a 4-song mini-CD distributed in 350,000 boxes of Pro-Line Soft & Beautiful Botanicals. The CD project also featuring Music by Heather Hedley, Geno Young, and Yolanda Johnson was the brainchild of Dallas’ Neo-Soul Café host Frances Jaye and can be streamed at www.sandbmusic.com.
