Hello Friends!
WOW WOW amazing news to share with you this month..
First off, I've been selected by the New Music Seminar as one of the Top 100 "Artists On The Verge". It's a HUGE honor and I'm so excited about the NYC conference/showcase in June.
As a result of my Top 100 NMS selection, Tommy Boy Records has chosen me to be one of the artists featured on their New Music Seminar compilation! I'll have more information soon but right now I know that the compilation will be released worldwide by Tommy Boy Records on June 19th, 2012. It's my first brush with a record label and I'm pretty freakin' stoked.
During NMS I'll be doing a big showcase for OurStage.com at Arlene's Grocery on June 20th. Also on the bill will be incredible acts Tyler Bryant and the Shakedown, Xolie Morra and Metermaids.
Also in June I'll be kicking off my annual "In The Round" tour with my fantastic and talented friends Michael Logen and Lizanne Knott! I'm so grateful to be making all of this music and to have your support. Please help me by spreading the word and coming out to these great shows..
