“THE CHAIN” Breaks Top 20 As It Charts At # 18 With 800 + Spins Weekly

Press release
Source: Rhonda Boudreaux, Publicist

“The Chain” from JAK PARIS quickly climbs to the number #18 spot on FMQB Hot AC. “The Chain” is now on over 40 radio stations nationally with 800 + spins weekly and continues climbing the charts. NEV Records released “The Chain”, a modern version of Fleetwood Mac’s mega hit, to radio just 8 weeks ago.

At the helm of his own label, JAK PARIS understands it takes an amazing song, passion, drive and determination to prove yourself to radio programmers and the music industry.

“Hitting # 18 is a great start for this record, proving that great music can still find its way to radio without a major label”, states lead singer and label owner JAK PARIS. “The music industry is up for grabs right now. There is no blue print for success in the current music arena, you have to write your own. I formed NEV Records in order to build an open minded, creative team that could help me deliver a great CD to music fans around the world. Through hard work, determination, and more importantly the music we are on the verge of breaking wide open.”

This modern, rock/pop version is a collaboration between alt rocker JAK PARIS and actress Scarlett Pomers (REBA) to bring attention to her charity Arch-Angels, a dedicated fund within the National Eating Disorders Association (NEDA). Proceeds from sales of the single will support the ongoing efforts to raise awareness and funds for education, advocacy, and research.

You can purchase “The Chain” at itunes.com, and Verizon Vcast. You can also buy the full CD, Electric Revolution, @ amazon.com, cdbaby.com, towerrecords.com, www.jakparis.com, and everywhere downloads are sold. “ELECTRIC REVOLUTION” was released on NEV Records March 28, 2006

JAK PARIS will be performing “N.B.D.” (Not Back Down) at the Las Vegas Music Awards on September 2 and also will perform “The Chain” with REBA star Scarlett Pomers. PARIS is the recipient of the Star Achievement Award for 2006 “Debut Artist of the Year” and his single N.B.D. (Not Back Down) has been nominated for “Song of the Year.”
