Viola, Mike
Paul Mccarthy
The latest album "Paul McCarthy" is a must-listen for Beatles fans, power pop fans, and all twisted POP fans. With a husky voice reminiscent of Elvis Costello, the ultimate melodies that are instantly recognizable as Mike's, and an unparalleled pop sensibility, this album is a must for Beatles fans, power pop fans, and all twisted pop fans. "Paul McCarthy" is the latest work by the genius POP craftsman Mike Viola, three years after "Godmuffin" in 2020. The theme is a fantasy based on the dream of Paul McCarthy, an artist with a name like Paul McCartney, to join the Beatles as the "fifth Beatle". This is a rock album that Mike created with Brendon Urie (Panic at the Disco!) and Jake Sinclair (producer of Weezer, Fallout Boy, Panic at the Disco!) after touring with Panic at the Disco. The album features Mike's signature beatific and melodic numbers, as well as a hard rock number that he describes as "the heart of James Gang's 'Rides Again' and Black Sabbath's 'Paranoid' and the brain of a child in a gray-haired middle-aged head, and I wanted to create a monster of sound. It's a new world that also includes a hard-rocking number that says, 'I'm a monster of sound. A must-listen for Beatles fans, power pop fans, and all twisted POP fans! Mike Viola's work with Adam Schlesinger of Fountains Of Wayne on the theme song for the movie "All For You," directed by Tom Hanks and starring Liv Tyler, brought him an Academy Award nomination for Best Original Song that year and propelled him into the limelight. Candy Butchers, released the last 16 albums as a solo artist and A&R. She has also recently nurtured young talents such as female singer/songwriter Madison Cunningham.
