Hey there!

ARIEL has recorded and released a brand new song for the Hillary Clinton campaign. The amazing vocals are handled by our extremely talented label mate, the lovely Michelle Jacques of Chelle! & Friends (found here on MySpace at: http://www.myspace.com/chelleandfriends).

She's backed up by the familiar ARIEL lineup. George and JJ, who wrote the song incidentally, along with Walter on bass and Christian and Kristian on guitar.

We made a video to go with it in the style of a James Bond movie trailer. It's up at You Tube. The link is:

Please check it out. Hope you dig it.

Greetings Arielites,

Wanted to let you all know that we've added a new fiendish thingy on the site. You can now "demand ARIEL to come to your city" and play by clicking the button on the new little red box on the lower left of our profile (Scroll down a bit brother). So if you'd like us to come through your town next time we're out making the rounds, let us know and we'll do our best to make it happen.

Also, please keep on requesting ARIEL on those radio stations. They tend to forget pretty fast if someone doesn't remind them the people want their ARIEL.

If there are any RADIO PARADISE < http://www.radioparadise.com> listeners out there, give some positive votes to "Franklin, Jackson and Grant," and "Crank Up the Victrola" currently on their listener review list. If we get a few more positive votes, they'll add us.

Thanks for your support!

ARIEL

You can now download individual tunes for 99 cents each. ARIEL has signed up with SNOCAP, the hot new MP3 dispenser that's going around, and we've placed a store on our MySpace page. We will also set it up on our official home page too as soon as we can figure out where to put it. Meanwhile, all the songs from "Sure Thing, You Bet!" are up and ready to download. We will be adding some of our older material as well. And of course, new recordings as we complete them. We'll try and get some of the choice live recordings up too. Thanks for supporting ARIEL!

A big thanks goes out to East Bay ARIEL fans!

The May 2nd edition of the East Bay Express just named ARIEL the Most Rousing Band in their annual Best of the East Bay contest.

We'd like to express our gratitude to ARIELITES everywhere, especially our East Bay fans, for making ARIEL number one!
