Release Notes:
Now Servingà Led by firecracker front woman Collette McLafferty, edibleRed is an
eclectic New York City-based five-piece collective of atypical musicians. The
memorable songs the band creates can be heard on their debut CD, Welcome to My
Bad Behavior, slated for release in late May, 2007 on veteran indie label Select
Records. Featured lyricist McLafferty is edibleRedÆs femme-fatale who describes
her sound as one of ôa classically trained voice that slowly degenerated into a
rock singerÆs.ö It is fitting that having once performed for Jeff Buckley
ôbefore realizing who he was,ö she blends songwriting skills like BuckleyÆs with
the style and panache of Debbie Harry and a rich voice a la Tracy Bonham.
Alongside McLafferty is edibleRed co-founding member, the Grammy nominated
drummer Tom Papadatos. edibleRed is masterfully supported by the
so-tasty-they-must-be-bad-for-you licks of cellist Dave Eggar. Known to some for
his groundbreaking classical string quartet Flux, Eggar has toured extensively
with some of rockÆs hottest acts. From an acoustic European tour with
Evanescence, to performing with the Who at Carnegie Hall, to playing on
recordings by artists as diverse as Breaking Benjamin and Nelly Furtado, Eggar
is the prima fixe of edibleRedÆs menu. Lead guitarist Sean McMechen brings
edibleRedÆs hard rock roots to the surface. After years performing in metal
bands, McMechen graduated with a degree in Fine Arts and guitar from Jersey City
College, and then continued his guitar study at Parsons College in Manhattan.
The tight, crunchy rhythm section makes mouths water thanks to the delectable
skills of bassist Marty Osterer and drummer Tom Papadatos. Osterer already has
one #1 single under his belt - as the session bassist for Murder Inc. Records,
he was featured on the Jennifer Lopez and Ja Rule smash ôIÆm Real.ö He has also
laid down bass lines for LL Cool J and Kelly Price. Papadatos graduated with a
performance degree from Berkelee College of Music in Boston and played with
classical crossover artist Sasha Lazard at the CD release party for her recent
ôMyth of Red.ö Recently, Papadatos toured Indonesia and Singapore with New York
blues guitarist Hugh Pool. Aside from being one of the most talked about bands
in the tri-state area, edibleRed has been cultivating a diehard national
following, and planting seeds internationally thanks to non-stop touring, and
radio and TV appearances on FUSE TVÆs IMX and Brooklyn Radio Online. McLafferty
was featured on an episode of FUSEÆs ôTattoo Stories,ö and The Style NetworkÆs
ôSplit Endsö where she got a brand new coif from the scissors of a hot Los
Angeles stylist. In February 2007, members of edibleRed were special guests on
an episode of the Dr. Keith Ablow show where psychic twins predicted their
imminent success. edibleRedÆs songs have been included on the Oxygen NetworkÆs
ôGood Girls DonÆt,ö and most recently the bandÆs lead single ôSugar and Springö
was featured in an episode of ShowtimeÆs ôThe L Word.ö Their music can also be
heard on KROCK2Æs ôDomestic Disturbance.ö Bring all these ingredients together
and you have a psychedelic rock recipe sure to satisfy any appetite.
