Released in November 2009, Rihanna’s fourth studio album Rated R debuted
atop the Billboard R&B Albums chart at #1and was the biggest first-week
Soundscan tally of Rihanna’s career. The eagerly anticipated album
arrived to a chorus of acclaim from critics and fans alike. Rolling
Stone raved “one of the best pop records of the year.” The Chicago Sun
Times called it “by far the best, most layered and most heartfelt effort
of the 21-year-old artist’s career.” In its year-end recap,
Entertainment Weekly named Rated R the Pop Album of the Year.

Rated R is the long-awaited follow-up to the RIAA double-platinum Good
Girl Gone Bad (May 2007), which contained the non-stop string of hit
singles that began with the MTV VMA and Grammy Award-winning global #1
hit “Umbrella” (featuring Jay-Z), then “Shut Up and Drive,” “Hate That I
Love You” (featur-ing Ne-Yo), and “Don’t Stop the Music.”  Good Girl
Gone Bad spent 98 total weeks on the Soundscan chart, earned cumulative
global sales of more than 36-times platinum in at least 18 territories
around the world.  The CD+DVD package Good Girl Gone Bad: Reloaded
(January 2009) continued the string of hits with the #1 “Take A Bow,”
the #1 “Disturbia” and Top 20 “Rehab.”

Good Girl Gone Bad was the third album release in less than two years by
Barbados native Rihanna, who turned 22 on February 20th.  It followed-up
2006′s RIAA platinum A Girl Like Me, which contained the back-to-back
hits, “S.O.S.” and “Unfaithful”; and her RIAA gold debut from 2005,
Music Of the Sun, featuring the world-wide smash, “Pon De Replay.”

Artists of the Month: Cavo

Cavo will be opening in support of Daughtry April 28th at Jobing.com Arena.

Get your tickets here: http://www.ticketmaster.com/event/1E00442CD64A9CDB?brand=jobingarena

Cavo, after nearly nine years together, had a good shot of getting where they are today: releasing their major-label debut album, Bright Nights * Dark Days, last summer on Reprise Records. With songs like the propulsive first single “Champagne,” the uplifting power ballad “Let It Go,” the blistering “Cry Wolf,” and the strutting “Blame,” the album is a passionately played collection of hard-hitting rock and roll with keenly felt lyrics about life, love, and the acceptance that comes with realizing that all we can do is to try and be the best person we can for those we love. “I think it’s amazing when a songwriter can open up a piece of themselves and let the whole world see it,” says Walker, who writes Cavo’s lyrics. “It may not be beautiful, in fact it may be really ugly, but great art comes from an honest place. It has to. And that’s what we try to do with our songs.”
 
The current line-up of Cavo — which also features Chris Hobbs on guitar, Chad La Roy on drums, and Brian Smith on bass — solidified after Smith came on board in 2006, but the original nucleus formed when Walker hooked up with Hobbs and La Roy in March 2001. Walker had wanted to front a rock band ever since seeing Pearl Jam’s Eddie Vedder onstage for the first time. “I had sung since I was kid,” Walker says, “but seeing him made me realize that writing songs and singing with a rock band were what I had to do. And I knew immediately that Chris and Chad were doing something special. We all shared the same passion for it. Chris is someone I consider to be a musical soul-mate; he’s very artistic and has a great sense of how the end result should sound. Chad is just pure energy; his playing is like a shot of adrenaline. They’re the kind of guys who, even if they weren’t signed to a label, would still be playing music together, and that’s how I felt.”
 
That commitment to music got Walker, Hobbs, and La Roy through some rough times ahead — the group endured numerous production setbacks, a former member’s alcohol addiction, and the end of another member’s marriage, all of which is chronicled on Cavo’s aptly titled independent album, The Painful Art of Letting Go, which they self-released in 2006. “We’ve had some major losses and some major gains throughout this process, but it has only made us stronger as a band and as friends,” La Roy says. After Letting Go was released in September, Cavo were ready to hit the road. The only problem was they didn’t have a bass player. Walker knew Brian Smith from the St. Louis scene and asked him to join. “Brian coming onboard literally changed everything for Cavo,” Walker says. “When he started playing with us, everything was different. It was more intense. His technical ability gave Chris the opportunity to start indulging his creative side, which in turn shaped the sound on our new album.”
 
In January 2007, Cavo wrote their first song as a four-piece — the ringing, tribal-sounding “Useless,” which Walker feels encapsulates everything about their musical direction. “It was clearly different than anything on our previous album. It was more aggressive, probably because of Brian. He plays parts, not just notes, and that made the music more aggressive. So I had to step up my game and become a more aggressive singer to match where the music was headed.” Soon they had two more songs, “Champagne” and “Cry Wolf,” both of which made it onto an EP that got the attention of the program director at St. Louis radio station The Point, which put “Champagne” into rotation. A few live showcases in the summer of 2008 later and Cavo signed on the dotted line with Reprise Records last October. “Signing with Reprise meant everything to us,” La Roy says. “It’s a chance for the world to hear and feel our music, and an opportunity that many people can only dream about.”
 
Record producer David Bendeth, who has worked with Breaking Benjamin, Paramore, and Red Jumpsuit Apparatus, among others, caught Cavo at their showcase in New York City and told the band he wanted to help them make a great album that could stand the test of time. “He basically said that he wanted to record with us whether we signed a deal or not, and his passion for our music was really inspiring,” Walker says. “In the studio, he spent the time to make the songs the best they could be. He cared about the final product and it shows.”  Adds La Roy: “I had a feeling this record was going to be something unbelievable and epic, but when I heard the final tracks, I was speechless.”
 
In addition to Cavo’s own songs, Bright Nights * Dark Days features an additional track, the powerfully emotional “Ghost,” co-written by Nixons singer/guitarist Zac Maloy, who has also worked with David Cook and Chris Daughtry, and the Norwegian songwriting team Espionage. “I was a Nixons fanatic,” Walker says, “so I had to get my geek moment out of the way when I first met Zac.”
 
“One of great things about being signed to a major label is that it allows our band so many amazing opportunities,” Walker continues. “It was also validation — like somebody telling you that what you’ve been focusing on your whole life wasn’t a waste of time. People would ask me, ‘How long are you going to keep playing in this band; when are you going to quit this hobby?’ Being in a band isn’t a hobby, it’s really hard work. But when it works, and you’re out there playing music with your best friends, it’s the best job ever.”

Festival organizers made this traveling punk rock circus the summer’s best bang for your buck. Appealing to everyone from traditional punk fans to backpacking hip hop kids to metal heads, VANS Warped Tour has its finger on the pulse of the most fiery acts in absolutely each and every genre–from more traditional punk acts Dropkick Murphys, Pennywise and Alkaline Trio, to the straight up rock of Street Sweeper Social Club, the blistering metal of Dillinger Escape Plan and the party rock of Andrew W.K..

Plus, keeping our environment in mind, the WARPED ECO INITIATIVES (WEI) will continue to be a big part of the tour in 2010. Facets of WEI range from biodiesel fuel for touring trucks and buses to environmentally friendly catering for bands and crew courtesy of Tada Catering. There’s even a solar-powered sound system on the Kevin Says Stage.  WARPED will again collaborate with Philippe Cousteau’s environmental organization Earth Echo International to cultivate environmentally-friendly programs that encourage awareness through action, and to bring these initiatives to into the collective fan consciousness.  Furthering WEI’s online presence, the WARPED website (WWW.WARPEDTOUR.COM) showcases pages for each tour date, including public transportation options and carpool message boards as well as eco contests and initiatives. WARPED TOUR and EarthEcho International will again organize a volunteer watershed cleanup at NOAA’s Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary in Monterey, CA.

In addition, the VANS WARPED TOUR has partnered with the TJ Martell Foundation once more. For each tour date, the TJ Martell Foundation will auction a pair of tickets and the opportunity for fans to watch their favorite band from the side of the stage. Plus, the third annual Vans Warped Tour/TJ Martell bowling event has been scheduled for Monday, June 28 in Phoenix, AZ. Bands will square off in a rock n’ roll bowling competition of epic proportions. Working in conjunction with 103.9 (The X), WARPED will auction off a spot on every band bowling team, allowing lucky fans to roll alongside their favorite rockers.

It will no doubt be another year to remember for this summer tradition. See what the press has said about past installments of the tour:

“Best Tour/Festival Of The Year”

                                    –Alternative Press, February 2009

“Trends pass. Rock festivals come and go. But the Warped Tour marches on.  Warped hasn’t just survived–it continues to thrive: Fourteen years after quietly premiering as a celebration of the teenage skate-surf-punk culture, one decade after expanding to a massive multi-stage event, the traveling music party remains one of the summer’s perennial draws…”

–Brian McCollum, Detroit Free Press, July 17, 2009

“…as much a coming-of-age experience as a concert event. The bonding between the bands and their mostly young fans is very real, with autograph sessions and mingling being as common as the catchy riffs pinging around the pavilion.”

–Christopher Porter, Washington Post, July 19, 2008

“…about 100 bands on 10 stages made for several forms of success…”

–Jon Caramanica, New York Times, July 28, 2008

“…the ultimate sampler platter for what’s hot and rising from the underground or has already arrived…”  

–Darryl Morden, Hollywood Reporter/Reuters, June 22, 2008

The Vans Warped Tour® is made possible through the support of Vans® and sponsors such as: Kia Motors, truth.com, Monster Energy, Trojan, Skullcandy, Ernie Ball, Alternative Press, NAMM, Wonka, American Rag, Altec Lansing, Glamour Kills, Skatera, Sabian, Smartpunk, Dickies, FUSE TV, Zildjian, PETA2, Shirts for a Cure Project, Amnesty International and many others.
