The official CD of The Doo Wop Project's "Echoes of the Street".
The Doo Wop Project is Charl Brown, Dwayne Cooper, John Michael Dias, Russell Fischer, Dominic Nolfi and Sonny Paladino. Produced by Sonny Paladino for Joy Machine Records, mixed by Ian Kagey and mastered by Oscar Zambrano. "The sheer cheer and joy that The Doo Wop Project radiates through their performances makes it nearly impossible for anyone, older or younger, to resist smiling, swaying, or tapping along. Their music speaks to two simple truths: good music doesn’t have a time limit, and harmony is infectious." - RYM Magazine
For this album the group chose songs that reflect the urban connection that has always influenced the doo wop genre. New York City, Detroit, Cleveland, Pittsburgh, Newark, and Philadelphia have all produced vocal groups that recorded songs we cover on this record. As they say in the lyrics of "Looking for an Echo": ‘Although they may be oldies, we make them new again.’ With an eye to the future they ‘Doowopify’ contemporary popular songs to reach a broader audience. They hope that this album will be loved by the doo wop faithful, and also serve as a vocally refreshing introduction to the genre for generations to come.
