Alexa Ray Joel finds new love with LI rocker

Alexa Ray Joel, who blamed her breakup with rocker boyfriend Jimmy Riot for her overdose of non-lethal homeopathic medicine last December, has found a new rocker boyfriend: Rockville Centre born-and-raised Cass Dillon, 24.

"It's true," Alexa Ray Joel's publicist, Claire Mercuri, confirmed to Newsday after People magazine first reported the relationship. The two met at work -- Dillon plays on Joel's upcoming, as-yet-untitled album, due out in the fall. "Notice Me," its first single, is available for download at AlexaRayJoel.com.

Dillon's manager, Stefano DiBenedetto, says the singer-guitarist-drummer is additionally working on his own record as part of the duo Caraco & Dillon, teamed with Miley Cyrus guitarist Jaco Caraco. In 2007, Dillon performed the benefit song "Christmas in Fallujah," written by Alexa's dad, Billy Joel, to help fundraise for the non-profit group Homes for Our Troops.

Joel, 24, had been in a four-year relationship with the 15-years-older Riot, real name James Elliott, a bassist who had also played in her band, and had produced her 2006 six-song EP, "Sketches." The two had been broken up for nearly a year when, as she told "20/20" last week, the thought of spending the holidays without him made her act out.
