From the Desk of Keith Hill | Soul/Funk Artist Steve Arrington Now Represented

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

Date: October 3, 2012

Keith Hill Announced as Booking Agent for Soul/Funk Artist Steve Arrington

I'm pleased to be able to announce that Steve Arrington of Slave, Steve Arrington's Hall of Fame and solo projects will now be represented by my office in the area of Talent Booking. I'll be joining his existing Management Team to begin the program of exposing the public and fans to a great body of work that audiences will love around the world.

This is a very special development for me personally, as I've always been a fan of the music of Slave, Steve Arrington and Stephen "The Fearless Leader" Washington, producer of the principle Slave recordings we've grown to love. For me to be part of Steve's Management and Direction Team is exciting! Many, including myself, never got to see Slave perform in the group's heyday. Neither did I get to experience Steve Arrington live. So,our goal is to re-introduce Steve Arrington to his former fan base while developing new fans.

Having played a role in the resurgence of what I call Classic Funk, I know there's a place for the songs that Steve has contributed to. His distinctive voice and the fact that his songs have provided inspiration for good relationships and wholesome values is something that I personally connect with. Songs like "Watching You", "Just a Touch of Love" and "Nobody Can Be You But You" (to name a few) come from a good place in Steve's heart that many can relate to.

Fans and talent buyers can look forward to vibrant shows that have proven to already be crowd pleasers. We're already witnessing fans singing along with Steve on the more popular songs like Watching You. It's a great musical experience! And, I look forward seeing these shows presented throughout North America and the world.

For information on booking Steve Arrington, call 214.714.7462 or email me at keith@uptownjazzdallas.com.
