Andy
Stochansky
By some measures. Andy Stochansky
is a pop music newcomer. Although
Five Star Motel his private music
debut, is his third release, it's
his
first for a major label following
acclaimed under the radar predecessors,
Radio Fusebox (1999) and While You
Slept (1995). But the fact of the
matter is that Stochansky has been
playing music for almost his entire
life;
professionally for well over a decade
in a variety of roles and formats.
The Boston Globe dubbed his performance
at South by the Southwest music
Festival 2002 "One of the best
live shows," while Canada's
Globe and Mail declared that this
"Weaves of seductively layered
melodies... and poetic lyrics demand
attention." So rather than
the work of a fledging performer,
Five Star Motel showcases a fully
formed and inventive talent. A singer,
song writer and multi-instrumentalist
whose wealth of experience has resulted
in the distinctive creative voice
of a true artist. |

every one of her songs possesses
a beauty that gives you the chills."
(BT) Randi Laubek's current album
