FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
San Francisco, CA--October 17, 2005--Xisco Poncé Jr. was born in the Philippines, raised in Hawaii, lived in San Francisco, Los Angeles, CA, and traveled around Europe, performing at an early age. After giving up a career and selling his house to record his full-length debut album, a year and a half later in a Los Angeles studio, all of his hard work and sacrifice has reached its fruition. The album, titled Suite, was developed to be a concept of three suites consisting of major pieces of work in movements titled “Err,” “Tear” and “Calling.”
Xisco’s voice is like a cross between Seal and Sade but he adds a personal flare to his overall sound that gives him the uniqueness that makes Suite a great CD. With musicians that have played for Elton John, George Michael, Toni Braxton, Thomas Dolby and Mister Mister gracing the entire CD, Suite offers compelling and sparkling production values with crisp combinations of stinging rock guitar, beautiful melodies, and Xisco’s angelic phrasing. Even when the lyrics are serious and true to life, it all sounds beautiful.
The release of Suite is scheduled for 11/05 in a Limited Edition Digipack of 1,000 copies only, signed and numbered by the artist. It is now available from UE3 Records. Many media outlets are available online to listen to the music and interact with the artist. Digital distribution is planned for Christmas of this year with a street date of January 10, 2006 with all brand new artwork for the release.
