GREAT WHITE Great White is an American blues-based Rock and Glam Metal band. Great White formed in 1981 in Los Angeles, California under the name Dante Fox. Their sound is notable for its similarities to Led Zeppelin. Great White singer Jack Russell's vocals are often also very similar to Robert Plant's distinctive wail. Great White is known primarily for their hit "Once Bitten, Twice Shy", a cover version of a song written by Mott the Hoople's Ian Hunter. Their album "Once Bitten..." was certified platinum in April 1988. Their follow-up album "...Twice Shy", included their biggest hit, "Once Bitten, Twice Shy", for which they received a Grammy Award nomination. This album was certified double platinum in 1989. Their other albums include "Out of the Night" (1982) , "On Your Knees" (1982), "Great White" (1984), "Recovery: Live!" (1987), "Hooked" (1991), "Let it Rock" (1996), and "Can't Get There From Here (Great White Album)" (1999). JAK PARIS This Las Vegas based artist is going from zero to sixty by virtue of a combination of powerful vocals, melodic depth, and undeniable expressive music with a wide instrumental range. His music hints of pop rock, alternative rock, modern rock, with a vast pallet of songs that appeal to just about everyone. JAK PARIS has achieved national attention with his first release, Electric Revolution, with electrically and emotionally charged, N.B.D. (Not Back Down) and softer ballads like Seasons Change." JP is an innovator, creating his own style of multi-layered music that combines alt-rock and electric composition with a very fine line between hard rock and pop music. JP has the ability to mesmerize with passionate lyrics, a driving intensity, and then going into a ballad with a solid melody. He carries the emotion and love for his music, and it shows on his new CD, Electric Evolution.
