Watch Fox's New Series "Touch" and Listen to Wendy & Lisa!
Tonight, Thursday, March 15th, Fox (Network) will be re-airing the premier episode of "Touch". In case you are un-aware, Touch is composed by the ever-talented Lisa Coleman and Wendy Melvoin!
Written and created by Tim Kring (who also worked with Wendy & Lisa on "Crossing Jordan" and "Heroes"), Touch is about 11 year-old Jake (David Mazouz) who neither communicates nor appears to understand much of what is going on around him. His father, Martin Bohm (Kiefer Sutherland), tries desperately to form a bond with his son without any apparent success. Through a series of events, Bohm realizes that his son recognizes much more than anyone realizes. The young Jake tries desperately to get his father to perform specific actions which will impact people around the world in a domino effect.
Touch is insightful, interesting, and complex. What seems like completely unrelated people and events, from around the world, become woven together to make a tapestry of suspense and adventure.
If not for the great writing, watch Touch for the great score!
Touch will begin its 'regular' schedule next week, Thursday, March 22nd at 9pm (EST).

Watch The Premier of Wendy & Lisa’s Newest Scoring Adventure, “Prime Suspect”!
Tonight, on NBC, you can watch the premier of “Prime Suspect”. According to the show’s website "Prime Suspect takes a look inside a New York City homicide department. The series stars Maria Bello ("A History of Violence") as tough-as-nails NYPD homicide Detective Jane Timoney, an outsider who has just transferred to a new squad where her new colleagues already dislike her.” The show is based on a “critically acclaimed” UK television series of the same name.
I have seen the show’s commercials and it looks very interesting (if you are into police dramas). Aside from the interesting plot, however, you will be able to listen to none other than Wendy & Lisa performing the score! Lately, they have been hard at work composing the score for each episode and I can’t wait to hear what they have in store for Prime Suspect. The show appears to definitely have a different feel from Heroes, Nurse Jackie, Carnivale, Crossing Jordan, and even Snoops, so it will be interesting to see what they come with to help tell a story that appears to be more ‘gritty’ than their past television series.
Prime Suspect will air Thursdays on NBC. Be sure to check your local television listings for the time!

Lisa Coleman Appears in "Put The Needle On The Record"!
As reported from Wendy & Lisa’s Official website, Lisa Coleman was interviewed for a new book called PUT THE NEEDLE ON THE RECORD. According to Amazon, “Put The Needle on The Record is pop culture historian Matthew Chojnacki's definitive guide to 7- and 12-inch vinyl single artwork from the '80s." Wendy & Lisa have their own page in the book, containing the "Satisfaction" 12" single artwork + Lisa's commentary. The author, Matthew, also included a great quote from Lisa on a page pertaining to Grace Jones!
Not only do you get additional insight from Lisa, but 20% of the author’s royalties from Put the Needle on the Record will be donated to the Keep a Child Alive foundation, which provides first class AIDS care, treatment, surrounding support, and food for children and families affected by HIV/AIDS in Africa and India.
