Albion and Onori Making Some Noise at NAMM

Day Two of Winter NAMM 2012 – the weather is wonderful – wish you were here!

So far it’s been a big success – the buzz about Albion Amps continues to grow. Everyone who plays one is raving about it. Our demonstrators are showing the Albion line off to perfection, and even president and chief designer at Albion Steve Grindrod is lending a hand on the strings and personally demonstrating his amps – including the prototype for his newest amps coming out this summer – the Gulfstream.

The range is comprised of 6 brand new products covering the 15 & 30 watt market area, and it’s getting a great response so far!

And of course Richie is doing some playing himself!

Richie Onori Completes Full-Length Concept CD

Richie Onori — Fri, 11 Nov 2011 00:29:26 +0000

Richie Onori, a well-known, world class drummer, has devoted this last decade to extending his abilities by preparing himself as a vocalist, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist.

Onori knew he had found his calling when he started to write songs which communicated his beliefs about societal issues that were not being addressed by other artists. He believes music is a vehicle that can be used to communicate truth and awareness, as well as to promote change, which has been the case for many influential artists in our most recent history.

He has recently completed his first full-length concept CD, which evokes messages and visions that he believes are important to communicate.
