LOS ANGELES, CA -- (April 26, 2004) -- Minga, the Amazon.com chart mover and neo-soul singer/songwriter, will soon hit the airwaves in over 80 radio markets across the US, and internationally on Radio Scilly in the UK. Minga is a featured artist on the nationally syndicated radio program "Women in Music with Laney Goodman," and all of the songs from "Flipside" (FUA Records), her debut CD, will be spotlighted on the show's upcoming broadcasts.
"Take cool, sensual beats, add one part velvet voice, mix it all together and you get a lush, tripnotic groove called Minga… I picked all of her five cuts. I love her style and groove," said Goodman of her decision to add "Flipside" in its entirety to the radio show's spring and summer playlists.
Since the March release of "Flipside," Minga has garnered rave reviews in publications
across the U.S. and abroad, including the San Francisco Examiner, The San Diego Union-
Tribune, Cleveland Free Times, Music Connection, and Vision Magazine, among others. She hit Amazon.com’s Top 20 "Early Adopters" chart after only two weeks at retail, and currently, the sultry, jazz-infused grooves of the single "Good" and the title track reside on DJ playlists at prominent West Coast nightclubs, including Temple Bar and Zanzibar (Los Angeles) and Candelas (San Diego).
"Women in Music with Laney Goodman" is a weekly, one-hour radio series featuring an eclectic mix of important female artists from around the world. Nationally syndicated since 1996, the series is heard in nearly 90 radio markets in the US and UK, and through live streaming on thirteen Public Radio Affiliate websites.
FUA Records was founded in 1995. In addition to FUA's artist roster releases, the label has produced compilation CDs in conjunction with various music publications and radio stations, and has licensed music to US and foreign media companies including ESPN, Roxio, AEI/DMX Music, XCZone Films and Hollywood Pictures.
