For the Scott Harris Project, the coming year should be as expplosive as the music on their soon to be released debut album. The New York-based foursome came together about three years ago when band leader, Scott Harris, teamed up with bassist Pat Castania. Drummer, Sal Giancarelli, was added soon thereafter and guitarist, Tyler Anselmo, cemented the group a year later. Busy playing shows and developing as a band, SHP spent the last year recording their album which was produced by Rob Guariglia, guitarist for The Veronicas and Ryan Shaw Band.
The creative force behind the band, Scott Harris, has been a well-known artist in the New York area since his teens. Scott began writing songs on the piano at the young age of five and soon graduated to the guitar. By college, Scott had developed a loyal fan base.

Teddy Geiger
The first developing artist to be signed to Hear Music, Hilary McRae is a 21-year-old writer/singer/pianist who seems to have time traveled to this decade from the 1970s. Her debut album 'Through These Walls' thrums with the vibrant rhythms and textures of old-school, horn-drenched, uptown R&B, a dynamic setting for the timelessly bittersweet songs and rich, dusky alto of this stunningly accomplished newcomer. McRae's vocal instrument is capable of withering intensity one moment, hushed intimacy the next -- a perfect match for these songs of uncommon candor and humanity -- songs that could only have emanated from an "old soul".
