Acclaimed Southern California singer-songwriter Jamie Reno is proud to announce the release of his much anticipated new solo record, "All American Music," which features an all-star cast of rock and country music greats.

Among those sitting in with Reno on this project are Randy Meisner of the Eagles, American music legends Ricky Skaggs and Charley Pride, and guitar great Dickey Betts, Southern rock legend Charlie Daniels, extraordinary musician Jeff "Skunk" Baxter of Steely Dan and the Doobie Brothers, virtuoso guitarist Jerry Donahue of the Hellecasters, multi-instrumentalist Dennis Caplinger, rising singing stars Eve Selis and Randi Driscoll, and many more.

"Randy Meisner sounds as good or better than he did in his Eagles days. His backing vocals really brought my songs to life," says Reno. " And it's an honor to have Dickey Betts, Jeff "Skunk" Baxter and Jerry Donahue playing lead to my rhythm guitar. Eve Selis and Randi Driscoll are great singers, and Dennis Caplinger is probably the best musician I have ever worked with. As for Charlie Daniels, what can I say about a legend. He's such a generous guy, and still a master on the fiddle. It was a truly great experience recording with some of the best musicians in the world."

A heartfelt and at times heartbreaking musical journey filled with bittersweet, soulful country-rock songs written, sung and performed by Reno, "All American Music" was co-produced by Reno and veteran musician-producer Josquin Des Pres (Bernie Taupin, Young Dubliners) and engineered by 2002 Grammy nominee Bernie Torelli.

Reno, by day an esteemed journalist with Newsweek, has seen his music career blossom the last two years. His last three releases, "My Side of Paradise" (2000), "Reunion" (2001), and "Favorite One" (2002) were each met with critical acclaim and are still selling well nationally. Reno is a six-year survivor of non-Hodgkins lymphoma cancer.

"All American Music" hits record stores nationwide on Jan. 27 - or just go on that date to towerrecords.com.
