In her new single, "He Ain't You," singer Joanna Mosca articulates both the passionate thrill and horrible ache of that all-too-common experience, but the song's got a twist - and it'll boost the ego of every man who's ever won a girl just by being a good guy. Released to radio on Sept. 29, "He Ain't You," written by Jim McCormick, Bill McDermott and Houston Davies, appears on Mosca's new EP, Have A Little Mercy. McCormick's credits include hits for country stars Jason Aldean, Brantley Gilbert, Tim McGraw, Trisha Yearwood, Luke Bryan, Trace Adkins and scores of others. Mosca met him through his old college pal, who happens to be her next-door neighbor in New York. On Friday, Nov. 7, Mosca will be performing at the Towne Crier Cafe in Beacon, NY with the proceeds from her ticket sales going to Guiding Eyes For The Blind. The non-profit organization is an internationally accredited guide dog school that provides superbly bred and trained guide and service dogs that expand horizons for people to achieve life's goals. All services are offered free of charge to people who are blind or visually impaired and to families with children with autism. Tickets for Joanna's concert can be purchased at: http://townecc.tunestub.com/event.cfm?id=177111&cart Have A Little Mercy, on Dolce Diva Music, was produced by Rich Redmond, Kurt Allison, Tully Kennedy and David Fanning, known collectively as New Voice Entertainment. Those first three, also members of Aldean's band, play on the EP, which reinforces what fans of Mosca's earlier releases have known for some time: This sassy lady may live in New York, but she's got the soul of a country singer - with enough pop shine and rock edge to engage music-lovers of many persuasions. Earlier this year, Digital Journal placed Mosca on its "Top 10 Female Country Singers to Watch in 2014" list, and Examiner.com's Nashville Country Music Examiner columnist named Mosca among the "Top 5 Female Country Newcomers" of 2014. Similar accolades came for Let It All Begin,including recognition on CMA Close Up magazine's 2012 "Who New to Watch" list and a showcase spot at the 2013 CMA Music Festival. Mosca also has opened for LeAnn Rimes, Martin Sexton and other well-known artists. Whether singing her own tunes or giving voice to others' words, Mosca simply loves making music. "It's really about the best song," she says. "If I can relate to the song and think I can sing it and do it justice, that's all I need."
