I have been working with Len Triola for more than 10 years now. He is a rare find in this music world and epitomizes the values and standards of yesteryear. Lenny is currently promoting my CD "Christmas with a French Twist" and has secured multiple radio interviews and printed reviews from various well established sources, which he has built relationships with over his amazing long lasting career. He is truly the best there is in the promotion of music. He gets it out there successfully nationwide and he shows tangible results. There are so many untrustworthy promotional services out there. It is so refreshing to work with someone who gets it done the old fashioned way: Telephone, pencil and paper. In addition, Lenny is a true friend and just tells you upfront how things go. I consider Lenny family, who watches out for my interests at all times. Thank you Lenny for all these great years working together and I look forward to many more.

In a time where the airwaves are cluttered and people are distracted to the point it is nearly impossible to be heard as a “new” artist on the radio, Lenny Triola is a breath of fresh air. I sent my first of 3 CD's, “It’s Time" to Lenny inquiring about radio promotion, not expecting to hear for some time about it. Within days, he called me and we talked about my music career, and where we needed to get my music played. He immediately went to work. He has years of experience and contacts who definitely respect him and take notice when he has a new artist to introduce -

He has carefully cultivated a lifetime of contacts and continues to amaze his artists with great representation on the air. Within a short time of Triola receiving my CDs they were systematically sent out to his contact list, and appointment s for radio interviews followed shortly thereafter! Here was my “Mood Indigo” from my CD, “Don’t Go to Strangers” being played between Duke Ellington and Johnny Hodges. If your objective is to get airtime, this man is the go-

When I released an album of songs by Johnny Mercer in 2011, I was not well informed when it came to promotion of the album. I got a strong recommendation to engage Len to work with me on promoting the album, and I am very glad that I did. He has done a terrific job. He arranged numerous radio interviews for me as well as getting the album played on stations and networks all over the country. As a result of Len's efforts, I was able to get a gig at New York's Metropolitan Room, and I am deeply grateful to him for that. It has been a pleasure for me to work with Len and to get to know him personally as well. I have the utmost respect for him both as a friend and as a professional colleague.

Len Triola is a shining light in the crazy world of music and artist promotion. We looked at several agencies when making our decision on who best to promote our studio and our artists. After meeting with Len, it was an obvious choice. Len has integrity, determination, and great skill. We couldn't be happier with his service and his enthusiastic support. Working with Len is the best choice you could make as a studio, an artist, or manager. When so much of the music business is filled with people who look to take advantage of the artist, Len stands tall with his honesty, fair pricing, and amazing results. We love Len Triola!

Lenny Triola, Simply put "a man of his word, a true gentlemen" There are a select few music professionals who possesses honesty, integrity, knowledge of the business and a genuine interest in their clients and careers.

Thanks to Len's dedication to promoting my CD, I received airplay and reviews from radio stations across the country. I was also interviewed on a number of radio programs, which also helped to promote and sell my CD. I would not have received the exposure I did without Len's expertise and professionalism. I'd hire him again without hesitation.

“Len Triola is a name we should remember! He is a man of his word and knows this music inside out, and that’s why he can sell an artist that he believes in and get results. He will go the extra mile, not because it means money in his pocket but because his passion rules his heart, and to me that’s what makes him stand out among other record promoters. He treats you like your part of his family and he is now a part of mine."
-
The day Len Triola entered my life, it was forever changed not just professionally, but also personally. His commitment to this business we call music is unmatched. I never dreamt he would travel to central Illinois just to “check out my venue.” Followed by “Oh – and while I’m there, why don’t you set up a masterclass with the music business kids. I can help them get started the right way.” Who else does things like that nowadays? His personal touch has mentored many, me included. His customer service to a presenter is unmatched. His eye for talent is without question. And the size of his incredible heart is indescribable.

I was guided to Len Triola because it was being said that “He was the man to get it done”. I’d been getting good airplay from some stations and when I asked who they trusted, they told me Len. When I wanted to expand my market, I called Len Triola. Len got me airplay from LA to New York! I have a very good CD and it has gotten great reviews…but Len got me in the door to be heard! I would be the first to sing his praises and I must tell you, I really, really like him! I will always work with Len.

I was referred to Len Triola when releasing my 2nd CD, "I've Heard That Song, Big Band Songbook." Len's response to the album helped make it clear that he truly loves The Great American Songbook, and is motivated by his passion for the music.

I have had the pleasure of getting to know Lenny as an event producer, a concert promoter and what used to be standard in the music business a real "record plugger". There's no area of any of these jobs that he is not really good at. He has an innate charm and a devotion to anything he takes on, plus he has what every performer and songwriter wants in his corner...the gift of a great ear for music. He is one of my favortie people in an industry that can be harsh and unyielding... and I always respect what he has to say to me.

I have had the pleasure of knowing Len for over a decade now and have met him twice. It is a once in a lifetime experience just sitting and talking to the man about his background in the world of music. My radio show is designed to feature the 30s and 40s with a segment introducing new artists or new releases.
Len has introduced me to some very talented entertainers through the years. I know for a fact that Len works hard for his people and knowing his expertise in recording, booking, promotion and publicity, I have suggested to a couple of local singers here in Michigan to contact Len for his services. And I might add, they did and were very satisfied with the outcome. Lennie...keep up the good work and it is a pleasure to call you a friend.

I have been in show business for over sixty years and have been blessed to have had some amazing people in my life in both the show as well as business end of entertainment. Len Triola has been one of the most outstanding. As the entertainment director of the famed Tavern on the Green, Lenny was involved in every aspect of what made my booking a great success.

This is a special, special man -
He asked me how old I was. I told him. He replied, "Say that you're < 3 years younger > and Do It Now!" We went and had a drink across the street at the Fat Black Pussycat and he took me under his wing. We worked together for a spell, which was great. We then sorta drifted, doing our own things, until....12 years later, last year....the phone rings out of the blue. I'd recognize that voice anywhere. (I wish I could relay an accent via the typed word. Think: Long Island, salt of the earth, a man's man.)
"Hey, JO! I heard you're putting out an album. What's going on?" That was Interstellar Songbook II, and his timing couldn't have been better -
Since then, Len has hooked me up w live radio performances, interviews, and gigs (like this one last weekend at the Intima Awards -
