The British dance floor barbarella plays hostess at The Electrick Hotel and is ready to invite the world to check-in and stay a while. Each of the 15 songs on the album represents a different room in the hotel and each tells a story, capturing a different part of Lolene’s personality. The album’s first single “Rich (Fake It Til You Make It)” is about living your life as if you’ve already made it, about believing you are what you want to be and having the confidence to know dreams can come true. The single will hit top 40 radio in June and is currently available at iTunes. A free download is being offered on Lolene’s website http://lolenemusic.com/rich_freedownload.html.

“I’m so excited to release The Electrick Hotel and to invite the world into the hotel as my guests and enjoy my music,” said Lolene. “Drinks on me!”

Lolene erupted into the club world last fall by releasing her first song ever “Sexy People” which reached #5 on the Billboard dance charts. She has spent the last few months playing at dance clubs around the country including multiple shows at Miami’s Winter Music Conference and a recent performance at Palm Spring’s Dinah Shore weekend. Lolene has spent every moment possible over the last year in between gigs in the studio putting the final touches on The Electrick Hotel.

Months before the release of The Electrick Hotel, songs have begun appearing in TV commercials and movies. “Sexy People” was featured in a Victoria Secret commercial last December and “Rich (Fake It Til You Make It)” is currently featured in the Jennifer Aniston and Gerard Butler Columbia Pictures film “The Bounty Hunter.” “Sexy People” will also be used in the upcoming Columbia Pictures film “Born To Be A Star” starring Christina Ricci and Nick Swardson opening Labor Day weekend. Lolene is currently featured in Sebastian Hair advertorial with a 12-page feature running through the end of the month in OK! Magazine with exclusive video content placement on www.okmagazine.com.

Lolene got her start in music as a teenager in her home town of Bristol, England by writing songs and singing backing vocals for trip-hop artist Martina Topley-Bird and local drum-and-bass pioneer Roni Size. After finishing school, she moved to London and fronted an all-girl pop vocal group signed to a development deal at BMG Records. The London scene wasn’t enough to contain someone as driven as Lolene and she found her way to Hollywood with nothing more than a demo CD and a dream. She scored a songwriting deal with multi-platinum producer J.R. Rotem (Rick Ross, Rihanna, Britney Spears, Sean Kingston) through his publishing label Beluga Heights/Sony ATV. While writing for Rotem, Lolene came up with the concept of the The Electrick Hotel and soon signed a deal as a solo artist with EMI’s Capitol Records. The Electrick Hotel will be released in summer 2010.
