I am very proud and thrilled to have completed my sophomore full-length album with legendary record producer and musician John Jennings. Jennings has worked with some of today's finest artists including Mary Chapin Carpenter, Janis Ian, Indigo Girls, John Gorka, BeauSoleil, John McCutcheon, Robin and Linda Williams, Catie Curtis, Bill Morrisey, Cheryl Wheeler, Kathy Mattea, George Jones, Iris DeMent, and Tony Rice.
These are exciting times for independent music! No longer are the days of "big-breaks" and major record label deals. These are the times of 'Do-It-Yourself' distribution, "guerilla-marketing", and FUNDRAISING! The goal is to entirely pay for the making of the record so that when it is released, I can focus on the business of touring, promoting and distributing with as little debt as possible.
Making this body of work has been a wonderful experience as well as a long and arduous process - from writing the songs, to recording, to designing the CD artwork. Now I need your support to launch this project into the world. It is through your support of my career, and your support of this production that I am able to do what I do, and bring it to your town.
There is a support level for every budget. Let me share a piece of myself with you through these options. And THANK YOU for your support!!!
Every little bit helps. Donations in any amount are greatly appreciated!
