California's DEIRDRE HUGHES has a two song release on MMG titled "Change" and "All You've Got Is Now". Both songs have done well throughout the world, especially in France and Australia.

RICK STOREY, who has performed in Europe and throughout the U.S., including current daily performances at California's Disneyland, has had two previous MMG releases titled, "Quarter Moon Midnight" and "California".

Not only is he a great musician, but he has a singing style we feel is catching the world's attention. His first releases on MMG have done really well around the world. His latest release - an instrumental titled, "Maggisto" - has done the same.
The singing talent of MAYFLOR HONTANOSAS was discovered by MMG Records in the summer of 2003.

She has been singing for the past several years in music cafes in and around Mangagoy and Bislig City, but never recorded professionally until early 2004. With a singing voice that has the same quality as that of many of today's top stars, we feel she is being accepted worldwide as a soothing breath of fresh air to country music.

ZANE PROSSER has a voice and style of singing that's reminiscent of the days when country artists were country! He sings a country song the way it should be sung, and once his singing begins you'll want to listen to the entire song. This man definately has talent not only as a singer, but as a well-seasoned musician as well. He has performed throughout the U.S. and shared stages with some of the finest in the business. When it comes to true talent, Zane takes a backseat to no one. He's been there, done it, paid his dues, and he knows how to sing a song everyone who loves country music will enjoy. His release on MMG titled "I'm Satisfied With You" has gotten attention worldwide.
Although the group now consists of four members they continue to be known as the CHRIS TALLEY TRIO. It would be safe to say no other group has won any more - or maybe not even as many - awards as the members of the Chris Talley Trio have won. Each member of the group is a highly-talented musician and their vocals match their musicianship. They have two songs out on MMG titled "Make me A Pallet" and "Sittin' On Top Of The World". We predict the Chris Talley Trio will soon take it's place on the bluegrass list as one of the world's most-liked bluegrass bands. They're great, and they have received excellent radio play on stations around the world.
The JUST BLUEGRASS BAND had a song titled, "Three Little Things", released on MMG in March 2004. This group of guys is unquestionably one of the best bluegrass bands on the market today, and we predict a lot of great things will be happening for them in the future. With the superb musicianship and great vocals this act has, the only direction for them to go is up! Their latest MMG release is "Your Love Is Like A Hurricane".
