“Hollywood’s Not America,” the lead single from Capitol Music Group recording artist FERRAS’ premiere album, Aliens and Rainbows, will make its on-air and online debut on The N, the network totally for and about teens, as part of a new exclusive promotional campaign to support the new album release. The campaign, which begins today, will include “The N Presents FERRAS,” a six-city high school tour and an exclusive video mash-up of FERRAS’ latest single with never-before-seen clips from The N’s hit series, Degrassi: The Next Generation. The N will premiere the new video on air and online at The Click, The-N.com’s broadband media player beginning Wednesday, April 16.
The multi-format radio hit, tipped as a USA Today “Pick of the Week” and an Entertainment Weekly “Download of the Day,” has sold nearly 100,000 copies since its release eight weeks ago. The video for “Hollywood’s Not America,” directed by Paul Brown (Smashing Pumpkins, Death Cab for Cutie, Evanescence), is one of only three videos in “Love” rotation at The N, the “VH1 Top 20 Video Countdown” and also MTV Hits, Music Choice and LOGO’s new music show, “New Now Next.”
People magazine pronounced FERRAS “the new piano man,” drawing favorable comparisons to Elton John, Coldplay and Hall & Oates, in a recent review of Aliens & Rainbows, which was produced by The Matrix (Avril Lavigne, Jason Mraz, Korn) with Gary Clark (Natalie Imbruglia, Lloyd Cole). The young artist, who has already performed on NBC’s “The Tonight Show with Jay Leno” and “Today” show as well as CBS’ “The Early Show Saturday Edition,” just wrapped up a tour with Capitol Music Group label mate A FINE FRENZY. While the high school dates aren’t open to the public, New Yorkers will have an opportunity to check out FERRAS’ live show at Joe’s Pub in the East Village on Wednesday, April 23.
