I don't like providing too much focus on any individual,
but in this case, I think the attention is merited! Lead
vocalist TC has an awesome voice, and I think potential
listeners should know that! He has a very cool, gruff
voice that is well suited to the style of music that
HUMAN X plays. In fact, his voice almost adds a Southern
Rock element to the sound! (I may be hunted down and shot
for my previous comment, but it's true!) This quality is
particularly evident on the song ""Don't Hate Me"". The
rhythm of the song helps to add to that feel, but TC
sounds very comfortable singing in this style. (In fact,
he is the lyricist and main songwriter in the band, so it
had to come from him in some way!) Truly, the vocals are
the signature component of this band's sound, and that
fact should be acknowledged!

If your smart and you see the man in the photo above,
stop him and say hello while you have the chance. He's
one of those people who may someday soon be the kind of
person that you'd love to meet, but would never have the
oppurtunity to.He's ANTHONY Culver-T.C., for short-and
been-south, west, and possibly overseas.
Back up to a kid whose mom bought him a ukulele years
ago.
""I couldn't play it and one day she traded it for a
guitar,"" he said in an interview last week. ""that, I
could play.""
T.C. is a self- described ""eclectic"" individual. He's a
fan of all varieties of music- ""I love everything there
is about music,"" he said. ""I can listen to everything.""
He says he was somewhat of a loner as a child, a kid who
liked to read books and build models. He's still a big
reader (non- fiction) and an addict of The Discovery
Channel, preferring shows on the environment, society and
animals. Before moving to a music career full- time, he
worked with autistic children. His mom is a homemaker and
dad owns a carpet business. He's from a family of 4 boys
and one girl who grew up in Massachusetts and Maine.
Once he decided that the music running in his blood was
to loud to ignore, he answered an ad. The band Sudden
Impact was formed in MA. Success followed but the band
disbanded. He came to NY.,
T.C. also performs as a solo act. ""I live and breath
music."" he says.""I always look forward to perform
anywhere from clubs with a few people to 40,000 people
with no problem."" When not on tour and in town T.C. hosts
a open mike. ""There are a lot of talented people in these
little towns"" he says. He's ""enjoying his time here it is
peaceful.""

Anybody who knows anything about Hudson Valley music has
probably heard of T.C, the band's lead singer and
acoustic guitarist, formerly of Monkee Boyz fame.
But T.C has long matured past jungle antics by
cultivating his own acoustic originals and pumping them
up.

Frontman T.C. commands attention with his hypnotic and
haunting guitar riffs and melodies created by his own
unique style.

But there's something loud 'n' crunchy on this
granite-hewn debut disc that I like. Recorded at
Millbrook Studios. T.C. is on lead vocals texture their
balls-out drive on these 11 kiln-hot originals with
eye-for-an-eye melodies, cognizant lyrics, and a
challenging emotional bent.

Rick M. Savoie is one of the diehards.
Two years ago, Savoie founded Rock Solid Music Group, a
record label, artist management and publishing company
that represents the culmination of a lifelong, rock 'n'
roll rendezvous. Now, with the help of the fledgling
label's signature artist, HUMAN X, Savoie will put his
experience to charitable use when Rock Solid presents
Music To The Rescue,"" a tsunami relief benefit concert
The idea for the benefit came about when T.C.,
and Savoie were watching a film about the devastation
in south Asia. ""After the video was
over,"" says Savoie, ""T.C. just turned to me and said that
we had to do something. I thought it was very moving and
heartfelt the way he reacted, and so we decided we should
unite a lot of the musical artists in Dutchess County
with the local community to help the cause.""
""I was intrigued by the whole thing,"" says T.C. ""I kept
up with all the updates and I noticed there were a lot of
scams. I wanted to show that there are people who will
really help, and I wanted our band to participate in
that.""
""It makes me feel good to do something positive for the
world,"" T.C. explains. ""We did a benefit for cancer and
helped raise $15,000. That was amazing. This tsunami
benefit is going to have music from all different genres
and it shows that there are a lot of artists who are
concerned and trying to do good things. And it's the
music that really bring people together. Music is
essential for people all over the world, so it's a good
way to go about raising money for the cause.""
Savoie agrees. ""Music can change lives, help someone
kick an addiction, save a relationship. It heals people.
It's something everyone can relate to.""
Savoie also points out that the benefit owes a debt of
gratitude to Nicole's, which donated the use of it's
upscale banquet hall for the event. ""We were going to go
to a club, but Nicole's stepped up as a sponsor and we're
very grateful for that.""
""Music To the Rescue"" is a heartwarming story on
uniting artists with members of the community for a
desperate purpose. It is proof that some good can come
from even the most horrific circumstances.
""I want people to think of our band as part of the
community, to show we are willing to help. And I believe
in the power of music.""
