In its finest form, the concept of fusion in music represents an ideal blend of a wide variety of sources and influences, to create a unique vision that defines exactly who the artist is. And when that artist is as capable and gifted as the outstanding vocalist and songwriter Ron Boustead, the result is Mosaic, his newest CD and his first recording since his acclaimed 2006 release, Blend. The album weaves a wide variety of musical motifs, colors and influences, performed by a remarkable assemblage of musicians, to create an aural pastiche and a finely-honed musical statement.

Vocalist extraordinaire Paul D'Adamo is no stranger to the world of Phil Collins and Genesis. His debut CD 'Tell Me Something' not only showcases a mixture of original compositions and re-done, lesser known classics by Phil Collins and Genesis, but also features essentially the core of Phil Collins's touring band: Brad Cole, Leland Sklar, Daryl Stuermer, Chester Thompson, Luis Conte, Arnold McCuller, Amy Keys, Lynne Fiddmont, and renowned jazz saxophonist Gerald Albright (who also worked with the Phil Collins Big Band). Of course, many members of Phil's touring band are active session players, and there have been projects where a couple of them have played together, but 'Tell Me Something' represents the first time almost all of Phil Collins's entire ensemble of musicians have come together on a project...without Phil Collins!
