Theodore Ignatius Fitzpatrick was born on Sept. 20 at 10:14 p.m. He weighed in at 8 pounds and 13 ounces.
“We had a girl name, and when we found out it was probably a boy, for some reason we felt like we needed to meet him,” Kaylee told Us Weekly of the name choice.
The little guy’s full name is quite a mouthful — say “Theodore Ignatius Fitzpatrick” three times fast! — but the little guy has already been dubbed “Baby Fitz.” Too cute for words!

Blame it on Fitz. At Kroq's 21st Weenie Roast, some of the acts on the bill seemed to engage in a game of theatrical one-upsmanship that carried on into the night at the alt-rock radio station's annual spring festival. It started when Fitz and the Tantrums frontman Michael Fitzpatrick took a full-on stage dive into the crowd in the middle of the neo-soul band's afternoon set on the venue's side stages and continued as the festivities wore on. Later, there was a surprise appearance by Stone Temple Pilots -- with a new frontman -- and a dramatic, Hollywood-

As of May 7th, I have been eagerly awaiting to feature the multi-faceted outfit, Fitz And The Tantrums, in Shockya’s “Artist Of The Week”. This past Tuesday, the sextet dropped their sophomore album, “More Than Just A Dream” via Elektra Records. Founded by Michael Fitzpatrick (vocals) in 2008, Fitz And The Tantrums, which consists of Noelle Scaggs (vocals), James King (saxophonist), John Wicks (drums), Joseph Karnes (bassist) and Jeremy Ruzumna (keyboardist), released their debut Ep, “Songs For A Breakup, Vol.1” in 2009 and the following year dropped their first full-length, “Pickin’ Up The Pieces”. Solidifying them as a breakout band, “Pickin’ Up The Pieces”, revamped classic Motown music by adding [ Read More ]

After years and years of what Michael Fitzpatrick calls “failing,” Fitz & the Tantrums are finally having good years. In fact, 2012 is already shaping up to be their best. As of today, the soul-rock band is officially part of the 2012 Outside Lands music festival lineup in August. This week, the six-piece is in between weekends playing at Coachella, the kickoff to their spring tour. That stint segues directly into stints opening for Dave Matthews Band and recent Immaculate Noise interviewees the Flaming Lips and performing at major festivals like Bonnaroo and newly minted The Great Googamooga in Brooklyn.

I have had “Don’t Gotta Work it Out” by Fitz & the Tantrums stuck in my head for the entire day. Today’s pick is an odd and indelible combination of soul mixed with punk-pop. Based out of Los Angeles, their 2010 debut studio album Pickin up the Pieces made it to #1 on the Billboard Heatseekers Chart and have since been playing the festival circuit nationwide, including a recent stop at Chicago’s Lollapalooza. The band is lead by Michael Fitzpatrick and Noelle Scaggs, both vocalists, although Scaggs also plays the tambourine. Supporting them are James King (Saxophone and Flute), Joseph Karnes (Bass), Jeremy Ruzumna (Keyboards), and John Wicks (Drums).
There is a definite Motown feel in their music and you wouldn’t have to look any further than to “Don’t Gotta Work it Out”. It feels like a song that could have been written by The Miracles, and yet...

A phone call from an ex-girlfriend was the defining moment that led Michael Fitzpatrick to create the throwback indie pop sounds of Fitz and the Tantrums. Fitz, a dapper young David Bowie lookalike, had already spent years in Los Angeles as a sound engineer for producer Mickey Petralia (Beck’s Midnite Vultures), but had yet to discover the sound that truly defined him personally as an artist. Fitz’s ex explained that her neighbor was moving out in a hurry and had an organ that she thought he’d be interested in.
The same night Fitz brought his new organ home, he wrote the first song that would become the archetype of his new soul-driven sound: “Breakin’ the Chains of Love.” Inspired, Fitz sought to create an original Motown sound, with the saxophone taking place of the lead guitar. The singer recruited saxophonist James King, an old college friend.

One would be hard pressed to think of another band playing today that sounds anything like Fitz and the Tantrums. The group's sound is reminiscent of Motown, but their American soul has a healthy dose of modern tempos and wild beats that has fans begging for more and more. When they stopped by IFC's home away from home at SXSW, they got the fans jumping up and down and singing along despite the heat in the crowded studio.
Before their show, Michael Fitzpatrick a.k.a. "Fitz" and singer Noelle Scaggs chatted to music host Ted Leo outside of the IFC Crossroads House:
To the beat of a pounding drum, Fitz and the Tantrums entered the studio, managing to whip the crowd into a frenzy before they even started to perform. Their show got the house hopping:...

The red flags were there, but institutionalizing Jared Loughner would have been extremely difficult. Sharon Begley on why it's so hard for parents to get help for mentally ill kids.
There are countless unanswered questions about why Jared Loughner went on his shooting rampage, but of this we can be sure: Across America there are thousands of parents of older adolescents and young adults who are terrified that their child's strange behavior, paranoid rants, drinking, drug abuse, conspiracy fantasies, and other odd behaviors are red flags for a serious mental illness. That most of these parents have no idea what to do about it is frightening enough. And even if they succeed in getting their child mental-health care before tragedy strikes, the system is set up to thwart them at every turn.

New Delhi -- Reliance Big Entertainment has inked a partnership with Ron Howard and Brian Grazer's Imagine Entertainment to set up a writers' lab that will employ 10 screenwriters per year to develop both film and TV projects.
The partnership -- called Imagine Reliance Writers Lab -- extends last November's first-look deal between Imagine and Reliance, which also has similar silo funding deals with banners toplined by A-listers like George Clooney, Tom Hanks and Brad Pitt.
Reliance will fund an undisclosed amount for the program, which will be run by Imagine co-chairperson Karen Kehela Sherwood. Sherwood will oversee both the film development department at Imagine and also assign projects for the writers group. Reliance will have the rights to co-finance any project Imagine sets up at Universal Pictures or at other studios. Imagine has an existing first-look deal with Universal Pictures, which will have first rights on completed screenplays from the writers lab.
