BTW: "I am extremely excited about the national release of 'Ignition,' " Sam Grow tells P&P. "It is my first release and my first full-length album that I have done. I put countless time and effort into the writing and recording of this record, and I hope that the songs can hold longevity within my listeners."
BTW: "I've been working for Matthew Knowles, Beyoncé's father, as a producer
for the past two years," Homyk says. "My own CD, which I am releasing independently, is more pop/rock, yet has a slight hip-hop/R&B twist, as this is my production specialty and natural percussive nature. Nonetheless, I often get compared to artists such as Gavin DeGraw, Maroon 5 and James Blunt."
