Corey's writing style takes one into new areas of the Sing/Songwriter realm; as he
ventures into a more heartfelt and honest avenue than most dare to today. Given time
and exposure, I think The Corey Booth Project will be on many people's playlists! - Denise VanHouten - K94Rocks.com
The EXACT definition of smooth, sweet, and simple music with well though-out lyrics
and infectious melody lines!” - Celine Magmug - Magmug Magazine
I have never heard so much sound and power come from one man and his guitar before
in my life! - Dave Cook - Dave's Place
Here's another CD which impressed the test audience (to SouthSide's surprise since
they're mostly hardcore rock daughters). They liked Corey's homegrown sounds of
Americana/alternative rock that sometimes incorporated a little country or California
sound. According to them, the five-track EP popped with rockin' music thus making it very difficult in choosing which song was their favorite. Vyolet suggests listening to Track 1, Moonshine, and Track 3, When I'm Sober, for the way Corey's raspy voice had this tone of sincerity ...plus the alternative tempo kept her groovin' to the rhythm. She says
"...they should be on the radio..." Meanwhile Sunday enjoyed Track 2, Let The Sun Go Down, for being a rock version of a lullaby ...it had comforting words within the lyrics. Track 5, All I Want Is You, was SouthSide's personal favorite for how the words honestly came from the heart. During this song, Corey's voice truly shines ...it's full of tenderness and sincerity especially when he say "...All I Want is You..." Now what woman wouldn't turn down that emotional plea. Check out Corey's web sites for dates where he's performing next live on stage." - Southside Review - Chicago, IL

Bio
The Corey Booth Project started out as a solo singer/songwriter project, as Corey performed over 150 acoustic shows with bandmate, Ned McGinn (Percussion). The demo's gained the attention of Head of A&R of Hollywood Records, Tomas Costanza, and CBP was invited to record an E.P. @ Costanza's studio; Killingsworth Recording Company in L.A. in 2010.
Since recording the E.P., CBP has landed tracks on regional and internet radio stations and sites, receiving dozens of positive reviews. CBP has also grown into a full, 5-piece band, and have since performed shows opening for Kenny Wayne Shepherd, Chevelle, and Everclear.
Corey has also been on legendary Producer and former Vice President of Capital Records, and founder of Woodstock 1969, Artie Kornfeld's radio show, and several other regional and internet-based radio shows for interviews and live performances.
CBP is a tight band with a full sound that appeals to so many kinds of music fans of nearly any age, it is almost scary how much potential this band has to go a very long way.
