If we learned anything from "American Idol", we learned that a
fabricated vocalist is a one-trick pony, while a true singer can
perform anything.  Andrea Burns is one such gift to music who is
stretching her creative boundaries with a track on Toucan Cove's Femmes
Fatales, meshing her big Broadway voice with an electronic music bed on
the song "100 Stories."  With early support from club DJs, mix shows
and both KNHC in Seattle and Energy in St. Louis, "100 Stories" is
poised to be Toucan's next charter.

Burns has appeared on Broadway as Belle in Beauty and the Beast and
Vicki Nichols in The Full Monty, and Off-Broadway in Stephen Sondheim's
Saturday Night.  She received a National Broadway Award nomination for
Best Actress with her portrayal of Lucille on the national tour of
Parade as well as a Jeff nomination for Best Leading Actress in a
Musical as Dot in Sunday in the Park with George.  In addition to
regional theatres, she has performed at Carnegie Hall and famed opera
houses throughout Europe.

Femmes Fatales is the first-ever compilation of its kind, honoring the
leading ladies of electronica and the burgeoning presence of women
behind the turntables and on the mics, and will be released through
Toucan Cove / Universal on July 25.

The album showcases twelve exclusive tracks by twelve
DJ/producer/vocalists, with styles ranging from energetic trance,
circuit and progressive house to breaks and drum 'n' bass, including
new music from Colette, Jes (from Motorcycle), Jan Johnston, DJ Keri,
Angelique, Mea and a new mix of "Remember Me" by Interstate which was
on Paul Oakenfold's Grammy-nominated Creamfields album.  This set also
boasts exclusive remixes by Noel Sanger and Black Liquid.

Femmes Fatales was produced by Mike Burns, who is one half of the group
Interstate, and director of the critically-acclaimed documentary Peace
Love & Beats.  His music has appeared in movies by Gus Van Zant and
Phaedra Films, and in The Anna Nicole Smith Show as well as many ESPN
shows including Rome is Burning.  Talent obviously runs deep in the
Burns family - Andrea and Mike are siblings, and their cousin is Gavin
DeGraw.

"Collaborating with my brother for "100 Stories" was an amazing
experience.  Michael is enormously talented; I've always been a huge
fan of his music.  And for me, the opportunity to sing in a completely
new medium has been so exciting....I absolutely loved it and would do
it again in a second. I'm already looking forward to the next single,"
said Andrea.

Josh Harris, who has remixed for The Killers, Korn, Saving Jane, Sierra
Swan and delivered the successful Groove Coverage "Poison" remixes, was
tapped to bring his consistently creative and rhythmic sensibilities to
the alternate versions of "100 Stories."
