NASHVILLE—March 19, 2013- Singer/songwriter, guitarist, television personality, professional sportswoman, activist and mother, GRETA GAINES, will release Lighthouse & The Impossible Love on May 14, 2013, on her own Big Air Records.

Lighthouse & The Impossible Love is the follow up to her 2008 Justice Records release, Whiskey Thoughts, which was lauded by Vintage Guitar Magazine as “one of the best records of 2008” and went to number one on Sirius/XM for most plays. The 10 new tracks for Lighthouse & The Impossible Love were recorded with longtime friend, multi-instrumentalist and engineer Eric Fritsch (Willie Nelson, Sheryl Crow, Scott Miller) in his Nashville-based Eastwood Studios. Primarily tracked live in the studio, it has the vibe of an intimate show, tweaked with a plethora of vintage gear. This is Gaines’ most fully realized effort to date; it is personal, honest and raw.

Gaines emerged in 1992 when she became the first Women’s Extreme Snowboarding Champion. In 1997, she co-hosted the Big Air Snowboard Competition on the first MTV Sports and Music Festival. From 2000 to 2002, she hosted “FREERIDE with Greta Gaines,” a half-hour show on the Oxygen Network. In 1999, she released her self-titled debut, followed by the 2003 release of It Was Hot and Can’t Kill The Flavor in 2006. Greta has played Lilith Fair and toured as the opening act for Sheryl Crow, Alanis Morissette, The Mavericks, Tori Amos and DJ Phillipe Solal in Europe. She also performed at the 2003 Farm Aid. She was a correspondent on ESPN2's "BassCenter" and "The New American Sportsman" and is still a competitive, professional fly fisherman. Her music has been licensed by ESPN, MTV, Oxygen Network and more as well in the soundtracks for “The Hottest State” and “Virgil Bliss.” Greta is a board member of NORML founding member of the newly established Norml Women's Alliance Foundation; she has become a featured speaker on Industrial Hemp and medical marijuana law reform.

Gaines has been featured in countless newspapers and magazines including Relix, Performing Songwriter, Harper’s Bazaar, NY Times, USA Today, Women’s Sports and Fitness, Sports Illustrated For Women, High Times and US Weekly. She appeared on “Good Morning America” in 2008 behind Whiskey Thoughts.

In addition to the new CD, Gaines recently contributed vocals on a duet with the legendary Donovan. His new single, “Harmonica Girl,” will be released via KCRW on April 20, 2013.

In other news, Gaines will perform and speak at the High Times Cannabis Cup which will be held April 20-21 in Denver, CO. She will open for The Mavericks at The Cannery in Nashville on Tuesday, April 23rd.

Super Galactic Expansive "Constant + Variables"

‘Constant + Variables’, the long-awaited follow up to Super Galactic Expansive’s 2010 debut album ‘Supersensible Science’, is an insightful, introspective, psychedelic odyssey into a powerful honest Truth of the Universe: …The only thing that’s Constant in Life is Change, and Change is nothing more than Variables thrown into the Equation of Life… Super Galactic Expansive is the unique collaborative glitch-hop project of electronic composer, Jamie Watts (KiloWatts) and poet/lyricist, Anand Petigara (Amagine). A distinctive synergy takes place in the studio when these two intriguing minds enter into the creative flow together, finding a unique dynamic and gentle balance, which merges their contrasting art forms into a congruent, singular voice evoking deep, personal and universal meaning all listeners can resonate with. After the release of their highly experimental debut album, Supersensible Science, SGE has processed and integrated the gamut of experiences – the growing pains and growing joys – that have marked their evolution and their lives, to create a stunningly beautiful, intricately precise, and powerfully cathartic expression of an undeniable process we all must engage and endure on our own accord…that of deep and meaningful change in one’s life. Put your headphones on, open your heart and mind, and enjoy this sonic journey into the power of transformation…
