Las Vegas singer Daniel Lowery has written a new anthem for the American troops. Full of patriotism, pride, and passion, this emotional and touching tribute salutes American troops and urges Americans everywhere to be thankful for the freedoms our country grants us. See below for assets to share on Watch Mojo, including audio and video streams, and an interview with Daniel.

Patriotism in song usually emanates from country & western singers. Patriotism, pride and passion are felt, but seldom verbalized, by African-Americans. “I’m An American,” an emotive and timely new ode to American troops, touchingly delivered by established Las Vegas crooner Daniel Lowery, who is African-American, was released nationwide on May 5th.
The song, written by Lowery, Miami producer/songwriter Hal S. Batt and Nashville songwriter Jennifer Constantine, is an uplifting tribute to American troops and a reminder to the American people of the precious freedoms that we sometimes take for granted. “I want this song to be an anthem,” says Lowery. “I want to send the message that we need to come together as a country and be as one and change the way things are going on here.”
Producer Batt, who has worked with an array of superstars, including Julio Iglesias, Shakira, Sandi Patty, Jean Carne, and Regina Belle, agrees. “The reason for this song is to give people hope. It’s because they’re doing their job that I’m able to do my job here. I feel indebted to do a song that’s going to make them smile.”
A poignant, touching video accompanies the release of the single. “I’m An American,” the first single from Lowery’s upcoming self-titled Timbo/Jam Records CD, is available at CDBaby.com, itunes and www.timbojamrecords.com.
Lowery is an established Las Vegas singer, having shared the stage with everyone from Bill Cosby to Gladys Knight. Originally performing under the moniker of Jamariah (Swahili for “dream chaser”), he built up a substantial following. One of the few African-American singers with his own Vegas act, he has performed at the Monte Carlo Hotel for nearly four years.
“I’m An American” is the right song for these days and times, lending a human aspect to the current status for thousands of our courageous military men and women. Those honorable troops are our family members and this song gives a voice to them. Now more than ever, Americans are strong and looking toward a brighter tomorrow for everyone.
Daniel Lowery’s heartfelt “I’m An American” beautifully demonstrates that a Black man in America can have an anthem too!
As one of the 20th century’s most iconic entertainers, Francis Albert Sinatra made an indelible mark on the world. In the 10 years since his passing, Sinatra’s legacy not only endures but also continues to grow in stature. As the first initiative under the newly established Frank Sinatra Enterprises (FSE), a partnership between the Sinatra Family and Warner Music Group, FSE has partnered with Reprise, Warner Home Video, MGM Home Entertainment, Turner Classic Movies, and the United States Postal Service to commemorate the Chairman of the Board, whose music and movies have an everlasting impact on popular culture. The month-long celebration will include the release of all-new CD and DVD collections, a television film festival and specials and a commemorative stamp.
On May 13, Reprise will release “NOTHING BUT THE BEST,” a single-disc collection from Sinatra’s Reprise Years that features 22 classic cuts remixed and remastered from the original master tapes, plus a previously unreleased recording of “Body And Soul” featuring a new arrangement. The compilation will be available in physical and digital formats, online at www.franksinatra.com, and in more than 7,000 Post Offices across the country. For a limited time, each CD will contain a collectible, commemorative Sinatra stamp with official USPS first-day issue cancellation. The stamp was unveiled in December 2007 by the U.S. Postal Service and will go on sale May 13.

Rage Against The Machine, The Smashing Pumpkins and Dr. John are among the more than 110 acts confirmed for the 2007 VOODOO MUSIC EXPERIENCE, which expands this year to three days to accommodate the number of artists who comprise the diverse talent line-up.
Set for Halloween weekend in City Park, New Orleans’ signature fall music event encompasses three full days of music–October 26, 27 and 28–with performances from Wilco, Tiesto in Concert, Kings of Leon, Sinead O’Connor, Common, Ben Harper and Galactic, among others (full list below). These acts will appear in the VOODOO MUSIC EXPERIENCE’s three distinct performance areas–Le Ritual, Le Flambeau and Le Carnival–each of which highlights a unique side of the personality of New Orleans—New Orleans’ signature fall music event.
For its ninth consecutive year–and despite 2005’s devastation to the region–the VOODOO MUSIC EXPERIENCE will again take place in City Park set amidst lush lagoons, bayous, one of the largest collections of mature oak trees in the world, all in the shadow of the New Orleans Museum of Art and just minutes from the historic French Quarter and Central Business District. The VOODOO MUSIC EXPERIENCE is known for its wide-ranging line-up of talent that each year reflects the multitude of cultures that define this historic and beloved American city.
