Internationally renowned artists Herb Alpert and Lani Hall
Sign with Concord Records

          Anything Goes, the Duo's Concord Debut and First Recorded Project Together, Slated for Release August 18, 2009

Concord Records is pleased to announce the signing of music icon and legendary trumpeter and bandleader, Herb Alpert, and his wife, the internationally renowned singer, Lani Hall. The celebrated duo's Concord debut Anything Goes is a live collection of beautifully reinterpreted standards, and marks the first complete project that Herb and Lani have recorded together. Anything Goes is slated for release on August 18, 2009.

Herb Alpert has sold more than 72 million albums worldwide as a musician and bandleader of the groundbreaking Tijuana Brass. He has won seven Grammy Awards, including Record of the Year for "A Taste of Honey," and had three of his recordings-the early TJB hit "Whipped Cream," 1966's "What Now My Love," and his 1979 solo hit "Rise""-honored with inclusion in the Grammy Awards Archive Collection.

In 1962, Alpert and Jerry Moss founded A&M Records, which became one of the world's leading independently owned record labels and home to such renowned artists as The Police, The Carpenters, Carole King and Janet Jackson among others. During this time Herb produced the likes of Stan Getz, The Baja Marimba Band, Gato Barbieri, Sergio Mendes & Brasil '66, and his wife of more than thirty years, Lani Hall. Lani's own Grammy-award winning career as a songstress stretches from 1960s where she amassed hits as lead singer with Sergio Mendes and Brasil '66, leading into a string of solo albums in English, Portuguese and Spanish that began with 1972's "Sun Down Lady."

"Herb and Lani have put together an incredibly special and heartfelt recording," said John Burk, Executive Vice President of A&R at Concord Music Group. "It is truly an honor to welcome such esteemed artists to the Concord family." For a complete list of confirmed dates please scroll down the page.
