AJ Edwards
Genres: Rock, Pop
Label: none
Management: Fleming Entertainment Enterprises
For singer/songwriter/guitarist AJ Edwards, music has always offered a certain ‘pull…’ “I think I’ve had this subconscious desire to play music for awhile,” comments AJ, “but it all really began to surface when I first saw U2 perform in Boston in 2001. I began teaching myself guitar a couple days after.”
The Boston born/based artist soon began to realize his passion for songwriting and spent many late nights building a balanced set of original songs and covers. “For awhile I really just wanted to get out there and play, but at the same time I felt that I needed something original to work into my act first,” says AJ. Eventually, Edwards grabbed his acoustic guitar and booked a few dates at local bars and college campuses, which resulted from his earliest steps on stage at numerous open-mike nights. Since then, he has collaborated with some highly respected artists in the local music scene including legendary studio drummer, John Dorizzi, and engineers, Dave Lefkowitz (Johnny A) and Jay Frigoletto (Alice In Chains, Oasis, Ani DiFranco) on his self-produced, debut full-band
album, “Start Over the Moon.” The record was released October 2009 and received subsequent airplay on numerous commercial and college radio stations in the northeast.
Edwards is currently in the studio working on a six-song EP, which he anticipates will be finished this summer. “There is definitely something for everyone on this record – and while I’m often most comfortable channeling my musical influences, I want more people to know what an AJ Edwards album sounds and feels like.” Edwards adds, “A proper introduction is the goal of this release.”

Six Day Slide
Genres: Rock, Pop
Label: none
Management: Fleming Entertainment Enterprises
Six Day Slide was founded by the Fortin brothers, Dave (front man – vocals) and Drew (guitar), Matt Beals (bass), and Dave Jacintho (drums) in the fall of 2004 in Boston, MA. Since then, the band has written many original rock pop songs and has also released their 12 track album Lights and multiple EPs.
The band’s name, created by Dave Jacintho, was derived from a line in the movie Swingers where the group of buddies discusses how long to wait to call a girl after you get her number – answer being “six days.”
Six Day Slide has toured all over the Northeastern United States playing bars, clubs, festivals, and rock venues. They’ve had the opportunity to share the stage with the likes of Sister Hazel, Teddy Geiger, Pat McGee, Will Daily, Dada and many other major acts.
The band’s single “New Day,” a tribute to a friend who lost a battle to cancer, is currently being distributed on satellite radio and can be heard at major department store and food chains like Lowes, JC Penny, Arby’s and Wendy’s.
