Keri’s Stuck In The Middle With You

THE VERDICT FROM RADIO & FANS

RADIO
Fantastic track - Nice to have a song that’s a classic song put together with a new country feel AND A SONG which lends itself to having a country feel. Some artists can’t achieve that but Keri and the boys did a fantastic job with a fantastic concept. Three voices are great. Should have long legs and life on radio..
Darryl Kirkup 4OUR FM CABOOLTURE QLD
 
When three friends get together and they all have a passion for music it’s great to see them putting a great country twist on what has always been a great song. Going well with airplay and getting some great rotation
Larry Cann KIXCOUNTRY FM BUNDABERG QLD

A VERY WELL LOOKED AFTER CLASSIC. It is very good.
Wayne Shearman ABC RADIO WIDE BAY QLD

Fantastic single.. A personal favourite by three top Aussie country artists.

Paul Batchelor 2MO GUNNEDAH NSW

Great track. Another hit from our home town girl!!
Pete Discon 2NZ RADIO INVERELL NSW

Fabulous single between the three artists. A good Australian release as good as the original. Lots of people do covers, but this is equal to the original. I love Keri’s music, it’s great and I wish Keri and the boys heaps of success with this track. The way it’s going up the charts, there are lots of people out there that like it too. They don’t have to be country listeners because it’s a good cross over to general chart music as well. ‘Stuck In The Middle With You’ by Keri McInerney, Steve Eales and Michael O’Rourke is a magic song!!
Tony Slingsby - Radio 88.9 WYN.FM MELBOURNE VIC

I love this track …an old classic rock hit brought back to life again.
Barbara Morrison Presenter SYDNEY NSW

A FRESH TAKE AND A FRESH COUNTRY SOUND. To turn a non-country song into a country song is brave but its worked!! Its what people want. They want familiarity. In the request line for Top 5. Great justice. Really strong single release. Still in our highest rotation ‘A’ rotation. We love it and soooooooo good. A must play .. we went with it as soon as it came in. It keeps going.

It’s certainly been an interesting week for the South East Queensland artist and collaborators.

Early Friday morning Keri got word that the single had reached number 1 on the KIX COUNTRY FM Chart and as you can imagine the trio were pretty pleased.

Not long after though KIX fm’s chart changed.

‘Number 14....a glitch in the system we've been told, so thank you to everyone who rang or emailed me...it was nice to feel the number 1 place for a few hours at least’ Keri humoured.

KIX FM issued an apology and a list of the latest results of current chart placing and also the Australian Indy Chart. Web developers of the KIX site do apologise for a premature resolve of the current Top 20 Thursday 9Aug due to a spike in the programme. This is the current chart. KIX Hot Country Top 20 Sat. 11 Aug. 2007………….’

‘So currently we are Number 14 and on the rise with KIX COUNTRY FM chart and the Australian Independent Chart has us up five places this week and sitting at Number 44 and still on the rise’ she says

‘Thanks to one and all for the support. Please continue supporting ‘Stuck In The Middle With You’ on CMC, KIX Fm and radio stations across the country.’

‘Cast your vote or request the song to support the track in the National Charts’

‘Congratulations also to my good friend Steve Eales. His new single ‘When A Cowboy gets The Blues’ hit the Australian Independent Chart this week at number 97’ Keri added.

Keri’s Stuck In The Middle
Queensland multi award winning country artist Keri McInerney is back with a fun toe-tapping radio single.

The enterprising singer and songwriter has teamed up with industry mates Golden Guitar Finalists Steve Eales former lead singer of Sovereign and Michael O’Rourke to record a collaborative version of the hit single ‘Stuck In The Middle With You’ written by Gerry Rafferty and Joe Egan.

Co produced by Ross Williams and Keri McInerney with sound engineer Jason Millhouse, the project unfolded in Brisbane when Keri turned an idea into a reality in February this year after she contacted Michael and Steve to see if they were interested. The end result Keri’s first co-production work is an infectious radio friendly country version of a popular song originally released in 1972 by the writer’s band Stealers Wheel. The single sold over one million copies reaching number 10 on both the US and UK pop charts.

A dynamic mix the finished product is an example of Keri’s inspiring lead vocals and Michael and Steve’s exceptional backing vocals saddled with superb harmonies.

Release of the single coincides with a film clip for television filmed also in Brisbane.

The single due to be released on the Australian market and later in Europe and the US looks certain to be another hit for Keri McInerney and collaborators Steve Eales and Michael O’Rourke.

Queensland Writers Sign with Aussie Independent Music
Queensland entertainer recording artist and Hervey Bay writer Keri McInerney will sign a major publishing deal this weekend.
Publisher Rhonda Sinclair of Aussie Independent Music met with Keri at Tamworth's winter country music festival in July to discuss contracts and potential international markets for her collective work through sub-publishers Pegasus Music. Pegasus has affiliates in the United Kingdom Europe and the US including Nashville based Acme Music Group.
'Keri McInerney is extremely multitalented. Most of all she is an appealing entertainer and a very good song writer with universal talent. She's an established artist who has performed with and supported many country and mainstream Australian acts' Rhonda said.
The publisher acknowledged 'Keri has seven Australian hit singles to her credit including two National Top 10's, one Top 5 Hit single and a host of co-written songs with diverse writers which she brings to the publishing table'

'Keri's creative ability and her motivation are foremost her greatest assets. I have always been impressed by Keri's songs. Her individualism and originality are strong features of her songs. She strives to look for higher ground whenever and whatever she undertakes'

'Whilst Aussie has concentrated predominately on traditional and contemporary country writers the signing of Steve Tebbett and two Brisbane based writers international guitarist Ross Williams and well known producer Tony Byrne opens other perspectives for the publishing company. Their writer appeal is an important transgression Aussie is prepared to undertake. It fits to some extent with a long term projection of all music genres' Rhonda added.

'Aussie is extremely pleased to have writers like Ross Williams who co-wrote the Keri McInerney/Michael O'Rourke hit single Exactly How I Feel on board as well as Tony Byrne and Hervey Bay writers Kerrin McInerney Bob Carlson Gary Witt and Mark Nuske on the team. It's obvious there's a great team mentality already and Aussie hopes to extend that'

A VIP Cocktail party to celebrate the signing of the writers is set for Sunday afternoon at the Wheelhouse Restaurant The Urangan Marina from 2pm. The event will be attended by local dignitaries and media representatives and will showcase some of Hervey Bay's finest musicians and songwriters. Special guest performers are international guitarist Ross Williams and guitarist Richard Butler.
