Press Release Summary: JAY GRAYDON and RANDY GOODRUM - the new supergroup JaR - are
releasing their first album - SCENE 29!

Press Release Body: JAY GRAYDON and RANDY GOODRUM, having worked together many times
in the past, have teamed up as the new supergroup - JaR - and are now releasing
their first album - SCENE 29. This album is a melodic masterpiece with songs across
the board - a mixture of Pop, R&B, AC, AOR and Jazz. Two years of hard work, writing
and recording new material, has resulted in an incredible set of songs with amazing
melodies and outstanding playing and singing by these seasoned musicians and
accomplished songwriters. The album is superbly crafted, loaded with original,
sophisticated, catchy songs, with subtle harmonies and interesting melodic hooks,
co-written and co-produced by Randy and Jay. The musical concept is totally new, yet
slightly familiar to anyone into the Steely Dan sound, as the songs build on a
similar formula with complex jazz-influenced chord structures that are pleasant to
the ear with unexpected musical twists, as well as apt, fun and innovative lyrics.

As usual Jay Graydon plays his guitar with elegant and intelligent accuracy and
Randy Goodrum, the piano virtuoso, with many international hits over the years, adds
to the magic of JaR with his inventive solos, jazzy voicings and exciting lyrical
flavors. Further, the groove is mature, featuring both cats' voices in a harmonious
blend - the perfect pair of exceptional musical gifts. More info at www.jarzone.com
