Lantana – First Female Group To Hit Texas Music Chart Top 10 In Years
----Trio Draws National Attention
“Since Lantana is made up of three women playing
country influenced music comparisons to the Dixie
Chicks may be inevitable. This trio has their own
distinct sound; however, with a bluesy soul in the
Bonnie Raitt direction. Their harmonies are lush,
sweet and poignant, augmenting the honest lyrics. A
fresh force to watch out for” –

Nashville, TN (November 1, 2006) – BGM Recording
trio LANTANA is the first female group to break the
Texas Music chart Top 10 since the Dixie Chicks did
so years ago. This week, their single,
“Country As A City Girl Can Be,”
landed at #9, and made its Music Row chart
debut as well.
LANTANA (Biz Haddock, Karol Ann DeLong and Dalene
Richelle) is hitting its stride – and the ladies are
earning a name for themselves - despite the
comparisons to the Dixie Chicks. Three gorgeous
women, three beautiful voices, plus some great
country songs. The similarities end there.
XM Satellite Radio host Bill Mack says," I sincerely
believe Lantana is presenting a delightful new
package of hope. When Biz, Karol Ann and Dalene
entered my studio, there was a personal certainty
that their visit was going to be very special. All-in-
all, it was not only special, it was unforgettable! The
phones went wild. We got calls from Maine to
Louisiana." (Credit: Martha Moore)
LANTANA’s schedule has included a flurry of personal
appearances that even a stumping politician would
envy. Highlights over the last three months include
the State Fair of Texas; several fashion photo
shoots, travel throughout Texas on a radio promo
tour, and coverage by CBS-TV/Dallas, Crossroads
Live! TV, Oriental Music Channel/China and the ultra-
hip ON Q TV. Features on the group have run in Country Weekly , Dallas Morning
News, Countrystarsonline,
TheCelebrityCafe.com, Nashville City Paper,
Star Country! and Music City News.
LANTANA is breaking barriers – and loving every
minute of it. Their CD, UNBRIDLED, is
moving briskly at Wal*Mart, Borders, Virgin, Hastings
and other retail outlets. Learn more about Biz, Karol
Ann & Dalene at: www.lantanamusic.com or
