  • The World Premiere of “Last Dance”

    July 1st, 2010

    The day has arrived, it’s time for my “Last Dance”. Below is a snippet from the Press Release, but just skip to the end if you want to get dancing!

    Think you know Donna Summer’s “Last Dance”? Think again.
    Girl In The Red Dress has taken the legendary 1978 track and worked her unique magic on it.

    The new “Last Dance” combines an infectious up-tempo beat with the Girl’s trademark dark-edged vocals. Far from a copycat cover version of the Paul Jabara-penned classic, the Girl’s reworking is a passionate but forceful cry from the heart, bittersweet and unforgettable. And very danceable.

    Produced by Chris G at Studio Chicago, the track was co-engineered by Amber Moelter, the founder of ALM Talkies and creative force behind Girl In The Red Dress.

    “Last Dance” is the second release in a series of imaginative cover versions of tracks from iconic female artists, re-recorded by Girl In The Red Dress.

    It follows the Girl’s chart-topping version of “Who’s That Girl?”, which turned the Madonna song into a soulful French waltz and spun the track in a new and unexpected direction to great acclaim.

    “Last Dance” by Girl In The Red Dress is available in MP3 256kbps format, which will play on iPod® and all MP3 players.

    Download it securely through Paypal or with credit card for $0.99.
    Don’t waste a minute, because it’s time to DANCE!

    Thank you to all the fans who have been so supportive of my music. I love to express myself through singing, but you make the party much more fun! I hope you love this track and play it at the end of your next party. Let’s make this Summer hot.

    If you’re still not sold, here’s the teaser video to tempt you:

  • A “Last Dance” tease

    June 27th, 2010

    On Social Saturdays I write about Social Networking.

    I’m super, super excited to present to you my, er…Girl In The Red Dress’s newest single “Last Dance”. It is derivative of the classic disco track from Donna Summer, but as I’m sure you’ll notice Girl got her hands dirty and fooled around with the melody until it became her own.

    So, here you go…the teaser for the track. The song will be made available here at ALM Talkies online this coming Thursday, July 1. Just in time for your 4th of July celebrations…

  • Buy debut Girl In The Red Dress EP now!

    May 10th, 2010

    On Music Mondays I write about music.

    The Girl In The Red Dress debut EP “Disguise”  is finally available to buy on our store for only $5 (plus S&H). You can conveniently use Paypal or major credit cards and we’ll ship all over the world. Also available on our store is the limited edition Red and Black Latex Case, which included an autographed CD plus a limited edition Dirty Step Upstage mirror for $40 (plus S&H).

    What’s included: 3 original songs that I wrote and recorded over the last year:

    1. Disguise – Upbeat rocking pop with killer guitar solo by Rowan Robertson (former Dio lead guitar). This is the origin story of the character Girl In The Red Dress, from upcoming movie “Dirty Step Upstage”.

    2. (Nothing But My) Heartbeat – A song plucked from a dream, it is for anyone that is haunted by a former love. It is an slower tempo club-pop anthem. But wait till the ghosts come out half-way…

    3. Dirty Step Upstage – Title track for the upcoming movie “Dirty Step Upstage”. Hard hitting industrial beats, amazing electric guitar by Rowan Robertson (Dio), and a dark story told by a red latex girl on a quest for fame.

    I designed the artwork that is all around the case and the 12-panel fold out poster and lyrics sheet. There are only 1000 copies, so get your copy of the debut EP from Girl In The Red Dress, first edition.  Once they’re gone, they’re gone!

    Get yours now!
