addition of California Transit Authority (CTA), a band newly formed by
Chicago founding member Danny Seraphine.

As part of its artist development support, MusicDish Network will
coordinate brand development, saturated and relationship marketing,
digital distribution and industry outreach. In particular, MusicDish
will reach out to Chicago's huge fanbase that helped produce 18 gold
and 13 platinum albums, 50 Top 40 hits, including 20 Top 10 singles
and 5 number ones.
"With Danny Seraphine leading the band and name association with such
a well-recognized brand as Chicago, the online marketplace provides
huge opportunities for California Transit Authority to connect with
fans across demographics," noted MusicDish founder Eric de Fontenay.
California Transit Authority (CTA) is drummer Danny Seraphine's trip
back to the future, effectively tipping his hat to his past with his
feet firmly planted in the here and now. Aptly titled 'Full Circle',
CTA's debut album brings Seraphine back to his roots.
While CTA revisits early Chicago classics "I'm A Man," "Make Me Smile"
and "Colour My World" on "Full Circle," CTA isn't just a nostalgia
trip. For example, "Make Me Smile" has been transformed into an
instrumental, with Marc Bonilla recreating the vocal lines on guitar.
In addition, Bonilla has also re-imagined many of Chicago's classic
horn parts on his guitar. Another twist is vocalist Larry Braggs, the
voice of Tower of Power since 2000.
Aside from the re-workings of the Chicago tracks, "Full Circle"
revisits Bonilla's "Antonio's Love Jungle," which is given new life as
Seraphine's human touch replaces the original's drum-machine rhythms;
as well as "Something Different," the Cannonball Adderley track
composed by a young Chuck Mangione. A new original track, "Several
Thousand," features guest vocalist Wes Quave.
