Stephanie Eitel Ricky
has been developing an artist from Chattanooga Tennessee by the name
of Stephanie Eitel. The project is called Stephanie Eitel and Red
Delicious. The sound is current and rooted in Pop, Rock, Soul and
Blues. "I discovered Stephanie while writing and producing music
for an all girl pop group. I had been working for the managers for
some time when quite unexpectedly one of the girls dropped out to
go to college. After what seemed like hundreds of auditions later,
Stephanie walked into my studio and sang 'KILLING ME SOFTLY' acapella.
I was stunned by her casual soulful tone and delivery. She was definitely
a cut above. My immediate thought was...what a waste to put her in
a kiddy pop vocal group. As it turned out, she and the managers couldn't
come to terms contractually. Months later we got together and decided
to explore her voice and I began to create music to compliment her
style. We hit a home run immediately with a song called 'A TASTE OF
LOVE DEVINE' but the next couple of songs weren't quite as obvious
so we wrote and rewrote in search of a sound unique to Stephanie.
Now we have a style and range of material we are wildly excited about
and nearly ready to shop." |

Forrest Blackburn Ricky
was hired to play bass on the Forrest Blackburn CD. The project then
moved to Ricky's studio and he recorded/engineered the vocals and
instrumental overdubs as well. "Forrest and I hit it off musically
and I think my studio has a club house vibe he liked. It's a very
casual environment singers seem to be especially safe and comfortable
in."  |
