Press Release Summary: International recording artist Astrid releases new maxi
single entitled \"Be Your Own Hero.\"


Press Release Body: (Miami, FL) Hero Records and Tone 1 Records announced today the
release of its newest CD maxi-single entitled \"Be Your Own Hero\" by recording artist
Astrid. This dance-oriented CD contains 11 mixes of an inspirational yet
radio-friendly track. Music industry veteran Carl Maduri (producer of \"Play That
Funky Music\" and \"The Morning After\") brought this project together with
co-producers Sam Toney, Doug Emery and Hal Batt who has a strong history of
production work with many well-known Latin artists including Julio Iglesias.

Carl Maduri commented, \"I haven\'t been so excited about a project in a long time.
I\'m also proud that a portion of the proceeds from our sales will support a number
of charitable organizations benefiting battered women.\"

Astrid is a multi-talented, multi-lingual artist whose name means \"of the stars\".
After graduating high school, Astrid began singing in a multitude of different
bands, giving her the professional versatility that led her to become a finalist on
the national TV production Star Search and then shortly thereafter to joining Jimmy
Buffet as a back up vocalist for his 1988 Hot Water Tour. Since then, she has had
the opportunity to tour nationally in the company of groups like Bonnie Raitt, Rita
Coolidge, The Neville Brothers, Ralph McDonald, Little Feat, and Memphis Horns,
Steve Cropper and several other national and internationally touring headliners.

Astrid commented, \"I am really excited to be working with Hero Records and Tone 1 on
such an important and inspirational project. I\'m also so very happy to be a part of
a project that will benefit organizations that have helped me personally to overcome
my own challenges with being a victim of abuse.\"

The details of Astrid\'s future tour dates will be available soon according to her
management company.
