FOREVER BE COOL IS CLIMBING THE AC CHARTS!


NICK LOREN—A CLEAR CUT WINNER!





The Singer, Songwriter And Veteran Actor
Is The Only Indie Artist in The Top Ten
On FMQB’s AC40 Chart





Loren Continues To Score Big with “Forever
Be Cool,” The Title Track From His Debut Album,
Which Will Be Part Of American Airlines’
In-Flight Audio Service In Time For Valentine’s Day






Continuing to live up to the title of “Forever Be Cool,” the title track from his popular debut album, singer-songwriter Nick Loren (www.ClearCutEntertainment.com) is quickly scaling the Top Ten of the ACQB AC40 chart and finding himself once again in the company of major label superstar artists.





With “Forever Be Cool” now at #6 and gathering momentum to crack the Top 5, Loren is the only independent artist in the Top Ten. He’s just ahead of Leona Lewis, Pink, Nickelback and James Taylor and hot on the heels of O.A.R., Jason Mraz and American Idol stars David Cook, Daughtry and David Archuleta.





Loren’s a ClearCut winner in more ways than one. Aside from being his highly anticipated debut as an adult contemporary artist, Forever Be Cool is also the flagship project of ClearCut Entertainment, the multi-media company owned by Loren and his wife Denise Loren. Beyond the music, ClearCut is very actively developing numerous film, TV, DVD and book publishing projects.





And just in time for Valentine’s Day, people flying all over the world will hear Nick’s ultra-romantic vibe when Forever Be Cool becomes part of American Airlines’ in-flight audio service. Also in February, passengers can read all about the singer’s multi-faceted career in a profile appearing in the airline’s American Way in-flight magazine.





The album has sold briskly via sites like iTunes, BestBuy.com and on ClearCut’s website. On November 18, Select-O-Hits began distributing it to major outlets like Best Buy, Target and Wal-Mart.





Loren, as the album’s executive producer, assembled and led a powerful team of top producers and songwriters to help him vocally and musically express his deep-seated passionate romanticism. Moving beyond the realm of mere collaboration, Loren’s elegant vocals inspired his robust creative team to achieve a dynamic level of excellence guided by his unique vision.





“Forever Be Cool” was penned and produced by Chico Bennett, a major force in pop music via his work with Madonna, Nelly Furtado, Hillary Duff and Usher. Loren brought in a dynamic mix of veteran and up and coming producers -- most notably, Jeeve (Santana, Darius Rucker, The Game) and Claudio Cueni (Immature, 2Pac, Boyz II Men) and fast rising Chicago based studio stalwarts Jay El and Marwan Abdula to embellish his work on other tracks of Forever Be Cool.





Loren is currently shooting a video for “Forever Be Cool” in Paris, the romantic locale of his latest film “From Paris, With Love”; the movie’s cinematographer Michel Abramowicz is the video’s director and film director Pierre Morel is working the camera for the shoot. Once completed, the clip will be used to launch the single into the mainstream in 2009. ClearCut is positioning Nick and Forever Be Cool as a project that can be branded into multiple sectors, including live performances, merchandising, video, film and TV.





Over the years, Loren has been film icon John Travolta’s stand-in and stunt double on over 16 films, including “Face/Off,” “The General’s Daughter,” “Ladder 49,” “Be Cool,” “Wild Hogs,” “Hairspray” and the upcoming “Old Dogs.”

Monday, July 28, 2008 

Coined as the "McDreamy" of Adult Contemporary Music, Nick Loren is bringing his infectious passion to the airwaves with his first single "Fallen." Industry and radio personalities are already comparing Nick to the likes of BabyFace and Stevie Wonder, and Nick is proving himself unique with his sensual voice and sensitive, amorous lyrics. On his debut album, "Forever be Cool," Nick demands attention with a style that is as fresh and innovative as it is relevant.

 

 Nick describes his music as a gratifying blend of all the styles he loves. His passion for music began at an early age, as Nick performed in front of audiences as early as age four. Nick had been turning heads in his local church as he soulfully sang and played the drums. At the age of six, Nick spent time touring with his stepfather's band, helping with lighting and occasionally performing on stage. After moving to Long Beach, Ca., Nick was introduced to the music of Donnie Hathaway, Stevie Wonder, Lionel Ritchie and other artists that would leave him forever changed. This music would influence the artist Nick Loren was to become.

 

 In high school, Nick began to polish his skills singing, performing and writing every chance he could. He began recording with L.A. producer Chico Bennett (Madonna, Nelly Furtado), and this relationship grew into one of mutual respect and enthusiasm. With Chico's encouragement, Nick began to pursue music as a career.

 

 In order to support his dream, Nick began working in the television and film industry, eventually becoming a stand-in, double and stunt Double for no other than icon, John Travolta in over 16 films. Most recently Nick has starred opposite Michelle Pfeiffer in "Hairspray," and will appear in 2008's "Old Dogs," starring John Travolta and Robin Williams.

 

 Through all his success in film, Nick never lost sight of his passion for music. His album entitled "Forever Be Cool" showcases Nick's impeccable vocal style and musical ingenuity. For this record, Nick once again teamed up with Chico Bennett, in addition to producers Jeeve (Carlos Santana, Darius Rucker, The Game) and Claudio Cueni (Immature, Tupac's "Better Dayz"). Nick has all the soulful romanticism of an old-school crooner, but with the modern sex appeal and musical freshness needed on today's radio. With his natural talent, sex appeal, and most importantly, his ceaseless determination, Nick is capturing the hearts of his listeners by doing what he loves the most.
