Jazz artist Tamela D'Amico is scheduled to appear this month at Ivan Kane's Cafe Was on April 17th in Los Angeles with her septet, but that isn't all the multi-hyphenate has up her sleeve this Spring.

D'Amico's company, La Strega Entertainment, has produced in collaboration with the Los Angeles sketch group, Frog Island Comedy, to create the comedic webseries “Pacino & Pacino Talent Agency" which will premiere on Atom.com, a subsidiary of Comedy Central, this April 25th.

D'Amico directed the series which stars Frog Island members Cooper Barnes and Ryan Fox in the lead roles of Pacino & Pacino. The comedic serial beckons the likeness of characters made famous by actor Al Pacino: Lieutenant Colonel Frank Slade of the film “Scent of a Woman" who fancies himself an expert on actor's headshots (Barnes) and Tony Montana from “Scarface" (Fox) portray Hollywood theatrical agents who run their very own Pacino & Pacino Talent Agency. Hilarity ensues when these two Pacino's, who recall memorable characterizations from the above mentioned films, as well as other notable Al Pacino driven feature films, power up to advise their clients and future clients. When they aren't preaching to their actors to go “Yell Pascreamo," then they're cajoling them on how to advance their careers no matter what it takes. Frog Island company member Liz Stewart joins the cast as a series regular playing the Pacino's very “put upon" secretary.

Upcoming guest stars include Gregg Binkley of Fox's “Raising Hope" as Bobby Deerfield the Pacinos most gullible client, Tara Shea of Frog Island who the Pacino's try to make a dramatic heavy for cartoons, and Kali Majors of “Ghost Whisperer" playing the aspiring child actor that the Pacino's vow to make their protege.

Premiering on Atom.com, a subsidiary of Comedy Central, this April 25th. The first three of six episodes will be released April 25th, 27th, and 29th. Hoo-ah!
