Homework (A letter to Virgin Records)

Dear sir / madam,

I’m writing as the manager of the “The Prophets of Harmonic Chaos”, a band formed two years ago, starring Samuel Hudson (as known as Slash) in the electric guitar, Marc Bell (also known as Marky Ramone) on the drums, Verka Serducka as the main vocalist, Celine Dion playing the panpipes and Joaquim Barreiros (as known as Quim Barreiros), the accordion.

Being the first folkloric punk-rock celtic pop band ever and after the great success of the concerts we have performed in the last sixteen months, we decided to record our first album and enlarge horizons. Therefore, we believe that Virgin Records would be the ideal record label.

As an annexe to the letter, I’m sending a compact disk with our demo, which includes our greatest hits: “Joseph Cat”, “Somebody stop us”, “Chaos & Love”, “Russia, goodbye!” and “The Ice-cream Dealer”. As shown on these tracks, the purpose of the band is to create harmonic melodies by heavy and soft accords combined with love and joy themes, providing new sound experiences to the fans. Recently we were also granted permissions to produce covers for some hits from Guns’N’Roses, Metallica and O-Zone, that we would like to include in the album.

We’re looking forward for your response,

Yours faithfully,
Eduardo Beja Martins
(manager)
