THE FIRST SINGLE "SURRENDER" TO BE RELEASED TO TOP 40 AND HOT AC RADIO
New York, N.Y. (January 28, 2008) - 1720 Entertainment is thrilled to have the extraordinary opportunity to make a very special wish come true for talented singer/ songwriter ABBY FIELDS, in conjunction with the Make-A-Wish Foundation® of Georgia and Alabama.
Since being diagnosed with Hodgkin's Lymphoma five years ago, the Atlanta-based teen courageously fought and won her battle with the life-threatening illness and is fulfilling her dream of having her songs recorded and released.
During the time of her illness, ABBY found solace and strength in the love of music and began writing lyrics to songs to convey her journey. Produced by Grammy Award winner Trina Shoemaker (Sheryl Crow), ABBY FIELDS' debut EP, aptly titled The Wish, featuring the alternative rock tracks: "Surrender" and "Telling The Story," will be available on iTunes on January 29,2008. In addition, the first single "Surrender" will be released to Top 40 and Hot AC Radio simultaneously on the same date. A portion of the proceeds from the sales of the EP will be donated to the Make-A-Wish Foundation of Georgia and Alabama.
ABBY FIELDS was feted as the guest of honor and made her debut performance at the Third Annual Celebration of Wishes Gala in Atlanta on November 3, 2007, hosted by the Make-A-Wish Foundation of Georgia and Alabama. For additional information on Abby Fields, visit www.myspace.com/abbyfields.
