MS. LAURYN HILL - MOVING TARGET: EXTENDED INTIMATE PLAY DATE SERIES

Lauryn%20Hill.jpg

The legendary GRAMMY Award winning MC, vocalist, producer and songwriter, Ms. Lauryn Hill, kicked off her Moving Target: Extended Intimate Play Date Series in Orlando, FL on March 16thand will hit 12 cities across the country including a performance at the El Rey Theatre in Hollywood, CA on April 20. It is rumored that Ms. Lauryn Hill will perform classic material from Bob Marley and the Wailers!

Of these play dates Ms. Hill says, "One of the benefits of playing venues smaller than the ones I'm used to allows me the opportunity to not only reconnect with my supporters but to expose them to a portion of the musical journey I've been on which the world for the most part has not had access to. I've never shied away from being musically adventurous, nor am I known for being a lightweight when it comes to lyrical content or musical exploration. These more intimate playdates afford me the time to perform for listeners who haven't heard from me over the past several years or have been misinformed by the inaccuracies in some media coverage, many of which I might add, I find very amusing. Getting back out there to perform is a lot like resuming a strenuous sport after having been away from it for a while, but eventually the muscle-memory kicks in and each day brings progressive strength. It's an exciting and REAL process which these audiences will get to witness." 



The El Rey is a general admission, standing room venue, unless stated otherwise in specific show details. Doors @ 7pm | All Ages | $77 – tickets go on sale on Friday here

SHILOH FERNANDEZ GETS EXLUSIVE WITH DA MAN MAGAZINE

Shiloh_DA%20MAN_Cover.jpg

Red Riding Hood Actor, Shiloh Fernandez (28), graces the cover of DA MAN Magazine this month.

Born and raised in a hippie-town of Northern California, Fernandez Cali attitude and California-Cool style, had made him the one-to-watch. Fernandez sat down with DA MAN exclusively to talk about his rise to fame with Red Riding Hood, his break-out role in the Sundance Film Festival hit "Skateland", and a little modeling gig he did with American Apparel.

DA MAN: What can you tell us about how you got the part in Red Riding Hood?
Shiloh Fernandez: I can’t talk to you about that. (laughs) I had known Director Catherine Hardwicke and when I read the script I felt that would be a really great movie for us to work on together. After numerous auditions and haircuts, she finally relented and agreed. Finally, it was about convincing [co-star] Amanda Seyfried and convincing Warner Bros., which took time and lots of effort.

DA MAN: Tell us about your role in Skateland, which is opening in the U.S. in May and won praise at The Sundance Film Festival.
Shiloh Fernandez: Skateland means so much to me, because I identify so clearly with the main character. He is a young man, just out of high school who feels a sense of complacency and doesn’t quite believe in himself yet. It’s a very trying time just out of high school and, through a shocking series of events, my character is forced to face reality and his talent and take on the responsibility of life—to move forward.

DA MAN: Is it true that you did a bit of modeling at the age of 15?
Shiloh Fernandez: It’s sort of true that I did modeling. It was pretty much a fluke, though—a one-off job (with American Apparel founder Dov Charney).
