Specimin A's Latest EP TOMAHAWK Now Available

Specimen A—brothers Phil and Mo Jones—have today released the 2-song Tomahawk EP on ROTTUN RECORDINGS—Excision's monster, independent label.

Specimen A is a formidable production and DJ outfit with many strings to their bow, synonymous with nothing less than quality. No territory is out of bounds. Be prepared.

Oxygen Network Announces Development of New Reality Show Featuring the Life of Caroline D' Amore

The Oxygen Network has just announced that they will capture Caroline D' Amore's life on a new reality show aptly named, 'That's D' Amore'. Although still in development, the show will center on Caroline and her two sisters as they attempt to 'keep it real in a not always so real town'. Refreshingly, her family's story of rags-to-riches will feature prominently in the backdrop, expounding on the journey from a single struggling pizzeria to eleven highly successful restaurants, the most recent of which just opened in Las Vegas at Planet Hollywood's Miracle Mile shopping district; an amazing feat for a company still family owned and operated. In line with her meteoric rise to international stardom, Caroline's creative focus is geared toward Hollywood glamour, having made guest appearances on television shows such as, 'Entourage' and '90210', and performing in films including, 'Sorority Row', “Daydreamer' and 'Pizza with Bullets' which she won a best supporting actress award at The Angeles Film Festival.
