[Notes] -

Raul Malo's Fantasy Records label debut album, Lucky One, finds him
fully shedding his musical shackles. "I have been fighting my whole life
against people who want to pigeonhole music. I feel like I've got no
restrictions anymore." Malo is known for his work as the frontman of the
Grammy Award-winning, globally platinum- and gold-certified band the
Mavericks. Following two albums of covers, Lucky One is Malo's first
album original material in seven years.

The CD will hit the streets on March 3rd, fronted by the lead single
"Hello Again."

Malo has earned much critical respect over the years. USA Today
applauded "a voice that seems to have no limits of range or
versatility." The New York Times said, "Malo has an exceptional voice, a
burnished tenor that harks back to Roy Orbison and the great Cuban
singer Beny Moré." Rolling Stone added, "Raul Malo has a voice on par
with the best of ‘em: Sinatra, George Jones and Orbison."? And The Wall
Street Journal opined: "Malo's superb voice is big and melodic with a
natural vibrato. Exquisite."

Malo wrote Lucky One over a two-year period at his Nashville home and
was so happy with the results that several of his home demos appear as
final versions on the CD. For the balance of the album, he once again
enlisted Steve Berlin, best known for his work with Los Lobos and who
worked on Malo's 2001 Today album, as co-producer. "I trust Steve
musically," Malo says. "Art comes first with him. That's the most
important quality of all. Nothing gets in the way of that."

Lucky One follows You're Only Lonely and After Hours, two CDs of cover
songs written by Malo's favorite tunesmiths including Kris
Kristofferson, Dwight Yoakam, Willie Nelson and Roger Miller.

"How could that not influence my songwriting on Lucky One?" Malo asks.
"It certainly had an effect on how I wrote for this. There's an
appreciation for song structure, melody and lyric that these guys
certainly had."

Songs on Lucky One range from the upbeat "Moonlight Kiss," to songs like
"One More Angel" and "Rosalie," which take on mortality and the loss of
life. "Hello Again" is a deceptively upbeat, swinging tale of
heartbreak, and the closing track "So Beautiful" is an ultimately
uplifting benediction influenced by events in and outside Malo's home.

While fans wait the March 3 release of Lucky One, Malo will travel to
several cities in December to preview the songs live, perform solo and
Mavericks classics while sprinkling in some holiday cheer.
