Stories From Hollywood is a high-energy rock and soulful pop album featuring all original songs. Jon's band includes some of the best and well-respected musicians in the business. The eagerly anticipated album has been in the works for more than a year and showcases Jon's superb vocal range.Don Grierson, Former Head of A&R at Capitol and Epic Records: "Jon Peter Lewis has real charisma as a person, a performer and recording artist. When I first heard Jon's new album, I was really excited by it. The songs are honest yet accessible and he sings them with warmth and conviction."
Corey Moss Senior Writer/Producer MTV: "With `A Little Less Conversation,' JPL gave one of the best performances in `American Idol' history, but he's outdone himself with his debut album. `Stories from Hollywood' is a collection of instantly-infectious songs, with clever, provocative lyrics. In other words, it's the sort of album you wished more former `Idols' dared to make. We knew he was a true entertainer, now we know the kid can write. In fact, JPL's at his best on `Amanda Grace,' with just an acoustic guitar accompanying his sweet falsetto.
Monica Rizzo, People Magazine: "Don't take a road trip without this CD. Jon Peter Lewis has many stories to share - all worth listening to."
Jessica Venditto, AI Magazine: "The long wait was worth it. For many of you who watched Season 3 religiously, you already know that Jon Peter Lewis, a.k.a. JPL has an undeniable talent. His new CD, Stories From Hollywood, allows you to discover it all over again.This eclectic combo of pop, alternative rock and a bit of the blues, mixed with strong vocals, great instrumentals and unique beats, showcases this artist as a star in the making."
