HUNTINGTON, NY – American Laundromat Records (ALR) is currently seeking demo submissions by women artists and female-fronted bands for a Neil Young tribute CD titled CINNAMON GIRL ~ WOMEN ARTISTS COVER NEIL YOUNG. A Holiday 2006 release date is anticipated.

“Neil Young is a true original and we wanted to celebrate his music and introduce younger music fans to Neil’s early work. Having women artists cover Young’s classic songs puts a fresh spin on the traditional tribute record.” Joe Spadaro - American Laundromat Records.

A portion of all sales from CINNAMON GIRL will be donated to CASTING FOR RECOVERY in memory of Norine R. Spadaro (ALR founder, Joe Spadaro’s mother). Casting for Recovery is a national non-profit support and educational program for women who have or have had breast cancer. Casting for Recovery provides an opportunity for women whose lives have been profoundly affected by the disease to gather in a beautiful, natural setting and learn fly-fishing, "a sport for life." The weekend retreats incorporate counseling, educational services and the sport of fly-fishing to promote mental and physical healing. More information about Casting for Recovery is available on their official website: http://www.castingforrecovery.org/index.html.

The songs American Laundromat has chosen for this project are from Neil Young’s early work (1969-1979):

Comes A Time
Cowgirl In The Sand
Down By The River
