Fifteen Minutes with Pinwheel
Pinwheelonline.net
By Phyllis Provino-Cullen with Jon Minners
Several months ago, I, Jon Minners sat in The Bronx Times Reporter's office, when a co-worker came in raving about a new band she had interviewed for an article in the paper. Phyllis Provino-Cullen had grown fond of the band and felt they were destined to make it to the big time. With a song on the radio and a CD being sold, Pinwheel seemed to have all the right tools to make it to the world of MTV and rock star fame. They were just missing one ingredient and that was a contract with a major record label.
That's where BANDWIDTH comes in. Phyllis is a co-worker of mine, so I agreed to have an article printed in our e-zine about the band. Phyllis wrote the article and I gave the CD a listen. I get a hundred independent CDs to review and most of them have become coffee mug coasters. If you have read my reviews, and in this issue, I rip up two groups who had no business in music, you know I am critical and often times downright insulting. However, this band kicked ass and I decided to write an accompanying piece about the CD. They had the stuff and it soon became a personal mission to get these fellow Morris Park residents, a spot on TRL and constant rotation on every major radio station across the world.
Now a three-man group, Pinwheel is actually better than before, and in this issue of BANDWIDTH, Phyllis Provino-Cullen, the woman who started the ball rolling, sits with each member of the band to get to know them better and let the readers learn what Pinwheel is all about. This is it. Fifteen Minutes with Pinwheel.
