For Immediate Release
PEPPI MARCHELLO FANS
CELEBRATE UNRELEASED SONGS
Peppi Marchello, the founder of Long Island’s popular Good Rats, is being
commemorated in a special book that has rallied die-hard fans. PEPPI MARCHELLO: SONG WRITER will collect not only Marchello’s
never-before-published lyrics from such popular LP’s as “Tasty,” but also dozens
of songs that were never recorded due to the singer/songwriter’s untimely death
on June 10. Marchello’s widow has also shared rare and intimate
family photos to be included in the book.
“Peppi’s fans were always legion, always enthusiastic and receptive to anything he was working on,” says author Clifford Meth, a
long-time friend of Marchello, who organized the project. “I was certain the
announcement of this book would hit home. Good Rats fans are eager to
participate in this exceptional project and to spread the word. Ultimately, the
book will benefit Peppi’s widow and allow for the release of many songs that Peppi was working on before he died.”
PEPPI MARCHELLO: SONG
WRITER was launched as a Kickstarter project on September 2. Within two
days, the project had passed its financial goal, and less than a week later,
its funding doubled.
“As fans hear about the project, they want to participate,”
says Meth. “The Kickstarter platform not only allows fans to pre-order the
book, but also to be a sponsor, or even participate at a higher level. Both the
book and its marketing success are things that Peppi would have been proud
of—and as his fan and friend, I am proud to help bring this to life.”
