Queensbury, NY. (Top 40 Charts/ Frank Palangi Official Website) - Solo artist Frank Palangi, whose music ranges from acoustic rock to heavier flavors, has announced the new single from new CD.
'I'm Waiting,' from the album of the same name, stands as the tone-setter for the CD (thus its selection as the lead single). It's a sterling example of Palangi's style, both as a songwriter and performer. Propelled both by rich melodies and driving riffs and percussive grooves, 'I'm Waiting' is a brilliant blend of heartfelt, emotional songwriting and Palangi's own brand of hard rock energy. Mid-tempo but with balanced, heavy crunch, 'I'm Waiting' moves with an urgent pulse that draws in the listener with tangible hooks.
The verses have the pull of Homer's beloved, dread sirens, luring the hearer into a big-sound chorus that explodes with color, all of which is in line with Palangi's songwriting philosophy. 'I like a good drum beat and catchy guitar riffs,' Palangi says. 'And the chorus and theme MUST stand out.' And the song's production is gleaming and pristine, bringing just the right amount of density versus space to the tune.
Thematics are vital elements in Palangi's songwriting. Every one of his songs is built from a core theme that shapes the construction of the song and gives Palangi a focal point as he creates each new tune. 'It sets a goal and makes you think hard on that one idea,' he says, emphasizing his belief that an artist should put his all into everything he or she writes.
Not only does Palangi write all his own music - he also brings it all to life. He sings and plays every instrument on the entire 'I'm Waiting' album. The ability to be self-contained as an artist is an important part of Palangi's musical world. He endures severe allergies, as well as asthma, and being in a position to do everything himself staves off obstacles that would otherwise arise if he was in a collaborative project.
Palangi previously released the 2006 album 'Falling Too.' He is currently working with A&R Select, the premier A&R firm based out of Los Angeles, CA.
