This summer won’t be remembered for the warm weather, ice cream trucks or girls in bikinis. 2008 is an “FNMTV Summer!” What is “FNMTV?” A 24/7 non-stop summer music celebration for and by the music fans, combining the best music experiences from TV and the Web. Each week MTV will premiere exclusive music videos and performances from the most talked about and soon to be talked about musicians. But in the end, it is all about the fans – as MTV turns over the controls to let them create their own music experiences on MTV.com and choose the best of the best to make it onto MTV for the world to see.
Kicking off “FNMTV” will be “FNMTV Premieres…” beginning Friday, June 13th at 8pm ET/PT. The new Friday night music event, hosted by talented musician, entrepreneur and activist, Pete Wentz of Fall Out Boy, will shine the spotlight on what viewers love best about music on television – the exclusive, epic live event that can’t be missed. Each week MTV will exclusively debut the hottest videos and set the stage for amazing live performances and special guest appearances. Artists featured on “FNMTV Premieres…” will range from the up and coming to the already arrived. Panic at the Disco, Flo-Rida, The Ting Tings, Snoop Dogg, Lil’ Wayne, The Pussycat Dolls, Duffy, Boys Like Girls and Vampire Weekend are some of the enormous talent already confirmed for the show.
After the debut of exclusive new videos and live performances each Friday night, the show never stops throughout the week, as fans are invited to put their own take on the music they have seen — like it? hate it? play with it, create it, and totally reinterpret it! Can you measure up to the vocal stylings of Usher? Send in those Karaoke videos! Do you have an opinion about a video you want to weigh in on? We want to hear your review! The FNMTV site on MTV.com will be the place for users to view all the submitted UGC. Music fans will then be the judge and jury as they determine the best of the best fan-submitted content that will make its way back onto the MTV big screen — from fan-submitted videos to user text comments, each showcased with the corresponding music videos played on-air.
“F is for feedback, N is for new, and together ‘FNMTV’ is the summer music event that brings it all together. Starting in June, MTV will focus on exclusive NEW music video premieres, and via mtv.com, the instantaneous feedback from our audience and culture at large as they make the music their own,” said Brian Graden, President of Entertainment, MTV Music Group. “MTV’s new paradigm enables us to not only initiate a conversation around music via flagship premieres, but also reflect that conversation back on television in real time. ‘FNMTV,’ along with interactive amateur competitions like ‘America’s Best Dance Crew’ and ‘Making the Band,’ the perennial viewer-driven ‘TRL,’ further MTV’s mission of enabling this generation’s great musical democracy.”
“Our audience has an insatiable hunger for the new and the fresh… We’re going to be loud about what’s new and use the power of MTV to engage music fans around music videos.” said Amy Doyle, SVP, Music and Talent, MTV. “Every week this summer we are going to highlight the most exciting artists and music and elevate the true art of the music video.”
MHD will also add to the “FNMTV” summer music strategy by airing weekly “FNM TV Premieres… Live Sets” show packages consisting of live performances that were featured on the show. Each performance package will air several times in HD throughout the week after their Friday premiere. In addition, leading up the “FNMTV Premieres…” show’s season finale MHD will run a marathon of all the Live Sets featured.
MTV will ask the audience to submit their UGC creations using MTV Mobile. Also, through text messaging viewers will be able to answer polls and submit comments about videos shown on-air as well as check out select live performance from the “FNMTV Premieres….” show.
Dave Sirulnick and Jesse Ignjatovic (Den of Thieves) serve as Executive Producers for the “FNM TV Premieres…” show. Amy Doyle and Joanna Bomberg serve as Executives in Charge of Music & Talent. Garrett English is Executive in Charge. Jen Jones serves as Producer.
Official sponsors of “FNMTV Premieres…” are Verizon Wireless and Rhapsody.
Tony Lucca is an innately gifted singer/songwriter with a resume any musician would find gratifying. He’s written and self-produced five studio albums, three EPs, several live recordings and a popular DVD. He’s won the L.A. Music Award for Best Male Singer/Songwriter. His music has been featured in film and television (including Friday Night Lights, Brothers & Sisters, Shark, Felicity and Kevin Costner’s “Open Range”). Lucca has been seen on E! Entertainment, A&E Biography and performed numerous times on NBC’s Last Call with Carson Daly. He’s performed with notable artists including pop icons *NSYNC, Marc Anthony and Joss Stone, as well as indie favorites Josh Kelley, Jason Mraz and Bob Schneider. He’s galvanized an international following and has sold out premier venues coast-to-coast, including Joe’s Pub in New York and the Hotel Cafe in Los Angeles.
Lucca, however, isn’t just any musician. He’s an earnest, diligent artist who consistently strives to grow and create music that he and his listeners can find both meaningful and entertaining.
He’s been in bands since he was 10, recording in the studio since 13, then started touring and performing for fans around the same time he got his first drivers license. It wasn’t until the Michigan-native turned 18 and moved to Los Angeles that he realized his true potential as a legitimate artist. After familiarizing himself with the landscape, Lucca began writing and recording music with some of the most talented artists and players around.
Tony’s work has spanned a wide range of genres and musical styles: from a jazz-infused pop sound (reminiscent of Steely Dan’s Aja period) to a very woodsy, Laurel Canyon style (influenced by Joni Mitchell and Jackson Browne), all while maintaining a consistency of texture and tone entirely his own. His lyrics and vocal quality are instantly identifiable, even to those who have heard his music once or twice.
Lucca’s latest offering is a robust collection of rock-n-roll rhythms, soulful vocals and thought-provoking lyrics that keep you listening start to finish. Come Around Again is as fresh and emotive as it is classic and familiar. From the titillating opening track, “Foxy Jane” to the sweeping and inspired “Maybe We,” Lucca shows the depth and breadth of his creative musings. In “Close Enough,” he displays an astute sense of awareness of the goings-on in today’s social and political climates. “Father Time” and “Pretty Things” reflect Lucca’s appreciation for a well-told story of heartbreak in the same vein as Jackson Browne or the Black Crowes. Finally, he closes the record with a simple, haunted rendition of the late Chris Whitley’s “Wild Country,” taking aim at what can only be assumed to be his relationship with the recording industry as he bemoans the “compromises I can’t comprehend.”
Come Around Again is a must-have for any Tony Lucca supporter and quite possibly the best introduction to his brilliant ongoing career.
