DORIS DAY DUET WITH DEVON BAND

“THE SIMMERTONES”

PERHAPS PERHAPS PERHAPS – READY FOR DORIS’S 90TH BIRTHDAY 3 APR 14 

The Simmertones are delighted to announce the release of the single “Perhaps Perhaps Perhaps” which features a duet with the Legendary Doris Day and The Simmertones’ lead singer Glyn Wilcox.

Doris Day PhotgraghThe Simmertones originally released an up tempo and off beat version of the Doris Day classic Perhaps Perhaps Perhaps on their award winning album Something for the Weekend last year. Since then Producer Richard Digby Smith from Newton Abbot’s Music Mill Records has been in discussions with Sony Music and Doris Day’s representatives in the USA to secure the original recording of Doris Day.

Sixty years on and with the magic of of Digby’s Digital skills Doris is now performing a duet on a fabulous reworking of her timeless classic.

The Single joins an impressive back catalogue of Island Records veteran Richard ‘Digby’ Smith, whose previous clients include Sir Paul McCartney, Bob Marley and Led Zeppelin. Dave Eringa of Manic Street Preachers fame provided the finishing touches prior to his project with Wilco Johnson and Roger Daltrey “Going Back Home”. A leading UK production company has agreed to make a video for the release of the new single which will be recorded in a famous local landmark in Devon.

The project will be announced on Doris Day’s 90th Birthday (Thursday 3rd April) and calls upon investors, fans of The Simmertones and Doris Day to join together to crowd source funding to ensure this track becomes an International Hit and puts another Devon band on the international music map.

Crowd funding is a great way of avoiding fat cats and investors from taking a huge chunks of money from Bands and provides a means of fans getting involved in the project. The money is to raise the funds for video production and promotion costs. Fans and investors are invited to support the campaign in exchange for pledges which range from an exclusive digital download, appearing in the Video or having a bespoke gig at an event of your choice.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT!
