AL/CAPONE BAND TO PERFORM IN MINNEAPOLIS

The Al/Capone Band will perform live and debut their new single entitled, The Mini Apple, at the Minneapolis Marriott City Center hotel on Monday night, January 25, 2010 at 6:00pm. The Marriott's Mini Apple Event puts the spotlight on Minneapolis nightlife and features entertainment from the Al/Capone Band, a Minneapolis based high-energy, six-piece jazz band. "We're very excited to host this exclusive event of great music, food and fun in the heart of downtown Minneapolis," said Tim Cahill, Director of Sales & Marketing, Minneapolis Marriott City Center. "This is only the beginning of new campaign we will launch in February designed to build significant interest in the city of Minneapolis as well as our hotel's extraordinary accommodations," he concluded. Composed by band leader and drummer, Jeep Capone and partner horn player, Allen Young, The Mini Apple, is a tribute to the Minneapolis experience. Based in the Twin Cities, the Al/Capone Band mixes jazz, R&B, funk, fusion and Latin, always staying true to its jazz roots. The Marriott Mini Apple event includes food and beverage specials and music from Mr. Smooth record album, the band's most recent CD. The live performance begins at 6:00 pm on the fifth floor of the Minneapolis Marriott at City Center. Autographed CDs will be available for purchase.

Mr. Smooth, the new smooth jazz CD from the Al/Capone Band charted at number 45 on the Smooth Indie Star its first week of reporting. The CD, a mix of smooth jazz, fusion, R&B, funk and Latin music, is now being aired on 47 radio stations around the country. “Mr. Smooth brings the listener many styles of music on one CD,” says Jeep Capone, Al/Capone’s band leader and drummer. “Although we’re found under the smooth jazz genre, our band crosses the lines giving us a unique sound that appeals to a wider audience. I think it’s that smooth blend of musical styles that makes all the difference.” One popular cut from Mr.Smooth, Jamatude, is receiving air play on the 47 stations and three more songs from the eleven-song CD have already been edited for radio, and are on their way to more stations.
