TEAM iLLUMiNATi is the purple gummy bear of the Nashville music scene; a totally unique, fascinating, and much-appreciated surprise. Half Ben Folds, half Frank Zappa, and a third Nine Inch Nails, TEAM iLLUMiNATi is the brainchild of lead singer/architect Ernest Chapman. The new album "American Dream", currently available on iTunes, was created in early 2008 by Ernest and Co-Producer Matt Rollings. From painting future landscapes with "We Are" and "American Dream," exploring life's struggles and successes in "Ashtray" and "Beautiful In There" to creating an interweaving mesh of hooks, colors and straight out balls to the walls rock with "The Only One" and "Hotel," TeaM iLLuMiNaTi creates an atmosphere that rings to the core of the human spirit. The songs "We Are" and "American Dream" have been getting spins on the BBC through word of mouth. Deepak Chopra recently interviewed Ernest and played the song on his internationally syndicated Sirius Radio program "Wellness Radio." "We Are" also appears on a compilation album of songs inspired by Martin Luther King, called "Dream On", with the profits going to charity. Other projects Ernest is involved with include playing on the score for a fake porno documentary called "Love Shack" with TEAM iLLUMiNATI Co-Producer Matt Rollings (also the keyboard player for Mark Knopfller), and Leland Sklar (bassist for Phil Collins, Randy Newman), and appearing in a documentary called "Protest Nation", set to be screened at Sundance next year.
