How Do You Promote a CD?

So this video blog thing. I frequently talk to myself, so this is not a real stretch for me to actually record it. Besides being an amazing lip-sync talent (see previous post) I am a gifted monologuer. The challenge before me is to make enough noise about my little CD to move the needle even a little bit and find an audience for this music I've put so much effort into writing. I need you and your ideas if you feel so inclined. Enjoy!

Uncut, Uncensored, Unbelievable, Unamerican

So, I have no real disclaimers for what you are about to witness. I don't recommend you try this at home - only a professional such as myself should ever attempt such a daring spectacle of sheer lip-syncing prowess. Be sure to pay close attention to the amazing camera-work and clever way I "pretended" to forget a few words here and there in order to relay the pure, spontaneous experience of an average guy singing in the car.

The New CD Is On It's Way

Mixed? check. Mastered? check. Photography? check. Artwork? check. All that's left now is shipping it all off to the manufacturer to press into shiny coasters. It's been a long haul, but when I listen to the final mixes I realize it's been worth every late night I put into it. I am very proud of the work and amazed by how good it sounds thanks to the magic of mixing engineer Glenn Matullo and mastering engineer Alex Lowe.

I can't wait for you to hear it. Oh, wait, YOU CAN! I've put the tracks up here on the website for you to preview the entire album. If you want to order advance copies, you can use the PayPal link. Within the next three weeks, the CD should be available from CDBaby and also on iTunes. You can order an advance copy buy clicking on the "Add to Cart" PayPal button beneath the music player to the right.

Thanks To You...

So many of you jumped into offer your help in getting the new CD made. I would like to thank all of these wonderful folks for their kindness and generosity. Without their support the new CD would have been considerably more difficult to realize. I hope to see you all at the CD Release party on June 27th at Eddie's Attic.
