The Constellations will release their debut album Southern Gothic on EMI's Virgin Records on June 22. Rising stars of the Atlanta scene, the band--which is fronted by charismatic vocalist Elijah Jones--is set for a breakout year in 2010. Southern Gothic was produced by Ben H. Allen (Animal Collective, Gnarls Barkley), and features guest appearances by Cee-Lo and Asher Roth.

Following recent opening slots with Snoop Dogg, Hockey, Greyboy Allstars and RJD2, The Constellations will continue to tour extensively throughout the summer, including performances at major festivals such as Bonnaroo, Lollapalooza, and Mile High. The band was named one of SPIN's "Must Hear Bands At SXSW," and PASTE's "Best of What's Next." They are also currently featured as one of iheartradio's "Artists To Watch."

Southern Gothic is all about what happens in The Constellations' Atlanta stomping grounds afterhours, a spectacle rife with seedy scenes and eccentric personalities, and propelled by a manic energy that hustles the audience deeper into the unexpected. Your tour guide on this madcap adventure is the magnetic frontman and vocalist Elijah Jones--the ringleader of the twisted circus that is The Constellations--who spent two years writing and recording the album with producer Ben H. Allen.

"Atlanta is strange," says Jones, "because we're all basically pushed together." The hip-hop heads, punk rockers, and indie kids all rub shoulders and mix it up. Southern Gothic reflects that inclusive diversity in its far-reaching sound. One expects nothing less from a singer who cites Tom Waits and Cee-Lo of Goodie Mob and Gnarls Barkley as his musical heroes, working with a producer who name-checks Fela Kuti and Gorillaz among their record's key influences.

The band's name refers to the myriad musicians from the regional scene who either contributed to making the album or have since played in The Constellations live band. One luminary who drops in is Cee-Lo, who added a verse to the electro-rocker "Love Is A Murder." Another guest is suburban rapper Asher Roth, lending his playful rhymes to "We're Here To Save The Day." Other highlights include the funk number "Felicia," for which Jones drew inspiration from the laidback '70s vignettes of Iggy Pop and Lou Reed, and the album's centerpiece, "Step Right Up (A Tribute To Tom Waits)."

At the end of 2009, American Express recruited DAVE MATTHEWS and JOHN LEGEND to participate in their Pairings event. Pairings are showcases of the finest musicians, chefs, and winemakers. This time around, two Pairings happened, one on the East Coast in New York City, with the other on the West Coast in the Napa Valley.

NEW YORK PAIRINGS

The New York pairing featured John Legend, James Beard winning chef Tom Colicchio (also of Top Chef fame), and Susan Lueker, director of Simi Valley. The three gathered at Colicchio's famous restaurant, Craftsteak for the event.

NAPA VALLEY PAIRINGS

The Napa Valley Pairing featured musician Dave Matthews, award-winning chef John Besh, and Genevieve Jannsens of Robert Mondavi Winery at the Mondavi Winery to discuss musical influence, great food, and what ties them all together

www.pairings.com/napa

Now, you can visit the website, www.pairings.com and take a tour by each city’s hosts as they talk about their crafts and their passions, and what brings them together in an ICONoclast-style conversation.

The trios gather come up with a meal and playlist for the night then team up with their wine sommelier. The experience is brought alive through videos that document the experience – beginning with an overview, background of the chef, the musician, an intimate look at the actual event festivities, and ending with an intimate performance by the musician.
