THE POP LEAGUE are artists I invited, in a loosely based alliance. I enjoy finding and sharing talent from MySpace, and this is my way of doing it in a more organized fashion. There are over 10 listening Rooms in The Pop League, with 4 or 5 artists each, and with one song showcased each. The goal is to win new fans, and maybe share fans. What you get is a very song-oriented collection of solo artists and bands from around the world (but primarily Europe and the US). So enjoy this Room 3 and just key in "The Pop League" in the search window for the rest of the Rooms! We now feature a Visiting Artists room, to showcase honorary members...a way to spotlight even more talent! I hope you enjoy the artists in this room, Silje, Mozzy Green, Russell Joslin, and myself. Thanks, Richard Filaccio (founding artist of The Pop League)

SILJE (Oslo, Norway) A major talent from Norway, who gained a following in England over the past few years, while she lived there. Now back in Norway, she has just released several new songs, and we have one of them. Pills For Love is a progression for Silje, her writing, free flowing vocals and production makes this a song that bears more fruit with each listening!

RUSSELL JOSLIN-- (UK) is an authentic, intense solo performer. "BLEED" is, in a word, brilliant. This is intense, and shows Russell in his finest moment. Vocals carry the melody and incisive lyrics masterfully. Use of an electric guitar to emphasize the subject matter and emotions was a nice addition to his usually spare sound.

RICHARD FILACCIO (Yreka, California, USA) (that's me!). I did a John Lennon Tribute last October 2007, and "RAIN" is from those live, no frills sessions. Just a guitar, Me, and my nerves to dare attempt any Lennon song. I always loved Rain, which was the B side to Paperback Writer single...a lesser known song, pre-psychedelia...

MOZZY GREEN--(London, UK)....MOZZY GREEN, is the band Ben Sommers resides in. No. longer doing the solo thing, he is full time back with the excellent Mozzy Green. The UK's band that the major labels should be signing immediately!!! If you love cello as I do, Anna just kills on it in this LIVE song "ICICLE"....
