featuring Pam Bricker, Wayne Wilentz and Jim West

Released September 11th, the new offering from Backstreet Records is "U-topia", featuring WAMMIE winner Pam Bricker on vocals, Gold Record recording artist Wayne Wilentz on keyboards and Jim West on Drums. The three have worked together for over 6 years, and have a fluid blend and comfort level that only comes with that much familiarity. The recording can be classified as a "live in the basement" sort, and has all the excitement and fire of a live recording without the crowd noise.
