August 2007 Newsletter

Well, it's hot and steamy here in New England, but I suppose that anything other than that in August would be, well, un-New England like! I hope you're enjoying the summer and will enjoy what's left of it!

I've had a couple of really great shows recently, but if you missed them, I hope you can get out to see one or two that I have upcoming. I'll be in MA on the North Shore and in Hudson as well as in Providence (RI) within the next month.

Hey, have you heard about my most recent accomplishments yet?

- My CD Lust Love Lost rose from 27 to 9 on the OutVoice Top 40 chart for June! Thanks to everyone who voted for my music - this is a great resource to find new music as well! Hint: click the OutVoice link above to vote for my CD (and others you like), and let's see how far up the chart we can get it to go!

- Pamela Smith at Amazon Radio recently added Lust Love Lost to her playlist and I'm very excited about that. Check out her program when you get a chance. In other radio news, Dan Herman from Radio Crystal Blue continues to spin cuts from Lust Love Lost - thanks to Dan for his support!

- "Just a Dream", a cut from Lust Love Lost, has been selected to be on the Indie Music for Life Adult Contemporary/Christian compilation CD - the adult contemporary part that is! It will be up for sale soon but check out the other compilations in the meantime.

- Lust Love Lost was recently added to the PayPlay.fm catalog for digital downloads. If you're looking for an iTunes alternative, look no further...and psst... don't tell anyone, but the .mp3 version is $8.88 and the WMA version is $7.77. These are better deals than you can get on iTunes, and they're iPod compatible so get downloading today!

Looking for gifts of new music for your friends and family? Lust Love Lost is still on sale through CD Baby, iTunes, GoGirls Music Records, or my website. I'm starting to run a little short, so pick one up today before they're all gone!
