Review
"She's About to Cross My Mind" is the new soundtrack to the old Swinging London! Solid from start to finish! From the opener "Cruel Girl", each hook-filled song is drenched in Beatles-like melodies and chord changes - jangly, ringing, guitars, and wonderful harmonies! We just hope we're having as much fun listening to it as Seth and Mike probably had creating it! We just have to stop ourselves from playing it too much! Not a bad problem to have! Can't say enough about this one! --KoolKatMusik.com
Product Description
The Red Button is made up of Los Angeles-based singer-songwriters Seth Swirsky and Mike Ruekberg. Ruekberg's indie credentials are rock solid as writer and singer for beloved Minneapolis-based pop-rockers Rex Daisy and wrote the soundtrack for an underachieving but beloved indie film (Dummy, starring Adrien Brody). Swirsky's legitimate music credentials are impressive: He's written hit songs for dozens of artists, ranging from Al Green to Tina Turner to Taylor Dayne. (He's also written three hugely successful books about baseball!) The two met in 2004, when Seth was recording his first solo album, Instant Pleasure (which went on to win Best Pop Album at the 2005 Los Angeles Music Awards). They shared one passion above all: A love of concise, melodic pop songs. She's About to Cross My Mind is the result of that meeting: eleven pop songs created, says Goldmine Magazine, the way God and Paul McCartney must have intended. Amplifier Magazine and International Pop Overthrow Music Festival founder David Bash says Swirsky and Ruekberg can now wear their rightful crown as the Peter Holsapple/Chris Stamey of the New Millennium .
