STAN BUSH "In This Life" (July 2007 LA Records)

Praised as a world-class rock singer, Stan Bush is best known for his song âThe Touchâ featured in the Transformers Movie. Stanâs new album includes âThe Touchâ as a bonus track on his U.S. release, as well as âTil All Are Oneâ, theme song for the Transformers convention (BotCon), where Stan will be a featured performer. With powerful melodies that have made Stan a popular artist around the world, his new album is his best ever!

Producer and guitarist Holger Fath has helped Stan create a masterpiece with âIn This Lifeâ. The title song has an almost spiritual message about searching for truth. âTake It All the Wayâ is about going for it! Other songs on the album are about love and life, and all share a common message of living life full-out! âSouthern Rainâ is a heartfelt âunpluggedâ acoustic song about Stanâs early years growing up in Florida, and features a guest appearance by guitarist Rocket Richotte (David Lee Roth, Rick Springfield, Steppenwolf).

The musicians on âIn This Lifeâ include drummer Matt Laug (Slashâs Snakepit, Alice Cooper, Richard Marx, Eddie Money, Anastacia), and Lance Morrison on bass guitar (Alanis Morissette, Don Henley, New Radicals, Rod Stewart). Holger Fathâs guitar work, production, arrangements, and keyboard programming all combine to make it a brilliant rock album! Holger was on three Grammy winning albums as guitarist and arranger, and worked with top European bands, and has co-written three top 40 hit songs. Additional keyboards: Dirk Nagel. Tracking and mixing of âIn This Lifeâ: Michael Blum, Titan Studios. Michael also worked with The Who, Pink Floyd, Madonna, etc,⦠Songwriters on the album include Stan, Holger, and Curt Cuomo (Kiss, Eddie Money, Edgar Winter).

"Heart vs Head" appeared in the movie "The Wraith," starring Charlie Sheen. In addition, Stan sang the title tracks for two Jean-Claude Van Damme films: "Kickboxer", a major film sequel to the highly successful action adventure film, "Bloodsport."

In 1997, Stan won an Emmy Award for Best Original Song. "Til I Was Loved By You" was featured on Guiding Light, a popular American soap opera. Another of his songs "Capture the Dream" was featured in the 1996 Olympic Games, and aired on NBC in a special tribute to the Gold Medalists of the U.S. Swim Team. "Capture the Dream" was also used for the World Cup Soccer Championship.
