AWARD-WINNING REPORTER SINGS A DIFFERENT TUNE

She racked up Emmy Awards and recognition nationwide. But for Houston television reporter Eileen Faxas, something was always missing. So she dumped her day job to devote herself to her true love: singing and songwriting.

Her debut CD "Dance Cry Swing" is already getting airplay on major Houston radio stations and selling in stores in Houston, Miami and online at www.EileenFaxas.com. The first single is a sexy bilingual dance song called "Take A Chance" that recalls the sound of the Miami Sound Machine in its heyday.

Born in Miami and raised on a diet of American, Latin and World music, the Cuban-American songwriter lets her roots show... making her debut CD a bilingual journey from powerful ballads to Latin-infused pop and jazz to all-out Salsa jams.

With an unmistakable power-voice that's all her own, Eileen is drawing comparisons to artists as diverse as Gloria Estefan, Celine Dion and Evanescence. Her musical influences include these women, as well as Cuban "Salsa Queen" Celia Cruz and deeply personal songwriters like Tori Amos.

Album producer Dan Workman, who's worked with top artists like Destiny's Child and ZZ Top, called Eileen "one of the most natural songwriters I've ever met", and industry website GarageBand.com named her Spanish release "Vivelo" a Track of the Week.

The world of TV news may be losing one of its stars, but the music world promises to be better for it.
