About Rudy Colombini’s “Message of Love” Album

The release of “Message of Love” through the Universal Music Group is a career culmination for Colombini, who has recorded original music for four decades and has led The Unauthorized Rolling Stones for nearly as long. The album charted in the Top 40 when it was first released in 1998. Because of the album’s timeless sound, pop production, and its shout out for hope and compassion, Universal Music Group rereleased the songs. For Colombini, this is his first album through a major distribution channel.

The album release party takes place on July 25, 2024, Music City San Francisco, 1355 Bush St, SF, CA., 6-10 pm. Eventbrite ticket link: rudycolombinialbumrelease.eventbrite.com 

About Music City San Francisco

Dovetailing with his music career, Rudy Colombini started Music City San Francisco with the hope of stoking the dormant fires of musical creativity in his hometown and the musicians around him, who had been held down by high rents and costs of creating music in one of the most expensive cities in the U.S.

All the elements of the Music City San Francisco complex—its five stages, 20 streaming-enabled rehearsal/education rooms, SF music-themed hotel/hostel, bar/restaurant, its 80 exhibit SF Music Hall of Fame, and now the Universal imprint label—coalesce into a platform that empowers and exposes Bay Area musical talent.

“My goal is to wake up San Francisco’s artistic soul,” says Colombini, who presides over Music City San Francisco like an impresario. Colombini’s vision of MCSF as a music playland of inspiration, imagination, performance, and fun for musicians and fans alike prompted Canadian publication Range Magazine’s Guide to San Francisco to aptly describe him as “the ‘Willy Wonka of the Rock World.'”
