"Non-Winning Wichita Song Is a Hit"

"Wichita, Heart of the U.S.A." is one of the 957 songs that didn't win the Wichita Area Chamber of Commerce's Wichita Song Contest, but it's winning some fans ...
"It's a killer tune, a real good one," said Pete Brier, the music director at KFH. "It's not a regularly scheduled song here, but we've been getting so many requests, we play it quite a bit." - The Wichita Eagle-Beacon


"WHITHER WICHITA"

Wichita (Heart of the USA) - A catchy country tune.... - USA TODAY


"Fall under the spell of Rebecca Dru"

NIGHT SONGS (CANTI NOTTURNI)
Rebecca Dru. RI0 Records, $14.99. www.nightsongs.com
The sophistication of this collection of lullabies and night-themed music might be lost on young children, but anyone who listens will fall under the spell of Rebecca Dru’s rich vocals and dreamy lyrics about prancing carousel horses
and billowy sails on the breeze. Also available in an Italian version entitled Canti Notturni.

(Ann Oldenberg, USA Today) - Parent's Guide to Children's Media


"DRU APPEARS ON KALEIDOSCOPE"

Dru, I just wanted to write to thank you for your recent appearance on KALEIDOSCOPE. We enjoyed hearing you sing "Wichita (Heart of the USA). Apparently many of our viewers enjoyed it too, because the station was swamped with calls in that regard following the program.

"Rock it Down/Brother & Sister"

Rock It Down / Brother & Sister. Here is a smooth, very upbeat song with what we now believe to be an excellent groove. Randy Wilson produced for Dru Productions. DeWayne Lewis was associate producer, and Rebecca Dru was executive producer. DeWayne also provides the lead vocals. The 7:23 version on Shtup City Records was edited to about 5:30 for extra energy and flow.

"Rebecca Dru...Canti Notturni"

Every song on this album is sung in Italian, yet even if you don't speak it, you can still understand the meaning behind the lullabies. The lyrics and music are beautiful; parents might even find themselves wanting to listen to it for their own enjoyment. It's a risky move to put out a chidren's album in a foreign language, but this one passes with flying colors. - Children's Magazine


"Rebecca Dru's Beautiful Voice"

For this song, I went back to Garageband.com, first visit there in a while just to see what new things they have there and I encountered a delightful song. I think you'll like it, it actually fits the mood of the international flavor of this show, given talking about Les Blogs with people from 20 odd countries. This is a song in Italian by a singer called Rebecca Dru who I discovered after I listened to it and thought, yup, this is definitely the one for today's show. She actually lives in Los Angeles. The song's called CARA LUNA AMICA, that's Italian obviously and I was trying to think, what does that mean. I speak Spanish and I can think of the similar equivilant in Spanish, but I ran it through the Alta Vista Babel Fish on-line Translator and it, of course, gave me the literal translation. So according to that the literal translation is Beloved Moon Friend. Rebecca Dru is the #1 Female Vocalist of all time in the Latin Category at GarageBand.com and I think you'll enjoy this song. It's a very romantic ballad and very pleasant listening. - For Immediate Release:The Hobson and Holtz Report
