Hey Everyone. I’m proud to announce that the new EP “Live. Love. Learn.” will be released on Forward Motion Records. FMR is a local Miami label started by Fernando Perdomo. Fernando is an incredible and well respected musician in the Miami scene. Fernando has played quite a few gigs with me including SunFest 2009 when we opened for the Steve Miller Band. Fernando also produced “Between You & I” and “Another Day” from the “Everything But…” album. Fern is also the bass player on the new EP.

FMR showcases some of the best talent coming out of Miami and is flagshipped by Fernando’s own band, “Dreaming in Stereo” who is releasing their second album this weekend and will be showcasing at SXSW in March.

So stay tuned for a release date of the record and if you’d like more info on FMR or any of their artsits please check them out at http://www.forwardmotionrecords.com

I got my first review of the EP today! My new friend Nikki has a blog dedicated to music and she was kind enough to give the album a review. I’m happy to report she liked the record and had some very interesting thoughts on the theme of the record. Check out what she had to say here: http://tumblr.com/xu91isryvc

Hey Everyone

I am very happy to announce that my new single “If You Go” is currently a featured download at www.AlternativeAddiction.com

If you didn’t donate through Kickstarter and haven’t been able to download the record yet, now is your chance to get a copy of the single. For those who have download it, please go there and download it anyway. They keep track of the number of downloads and I would love it if I could get as many as possible.

While you’re on the site, head over to the unsigned page and vote for the song in the Top 10 songs for the month. Right now I am on the chart as an “add” and will need as many votes as possible to crack the top ten. Here is the link to the page if anyone wants to post it for twitter and facebook to help spread the word.

Good news folks! The new EP “Live. Love. Learn.” is FINISHED!!! After the long fundraising & recording process over the last few months, we have finally finished tracking for the new 4-Song EP. Super Producer Zach Ziskin is currently mixing all the songs so be on the lookout for your first listen in the next few weeks.

For those who donated through Kickstarter I am hoping to get the digital copy of the EP in your “hands” by Valentine’s Day. (I know, I’m so sweet) Then the physical copies should come out about a month later. For those that didn’t order through Kickstarter, the album will be available at shows or online at iTunes. I’ll keep you posted on the release date for iTunes.

The album cover is above and the track list is below. I’m so incredibly excited for everyone to hear this album. Zach, Derek and Fernando did an amazing job making these songs shine. I know I promised you all a good record, but I am proud to say that we’ve made a GREAT RECORD!!! This is by far the best thing I’ve ever recorded and I’m hoping it exceeds any expectations anyone might have had for this record. I know it vastly exceeded mine.

Stay tuned, the first single is coming in the next few weeks. Eek!

I am happy to be a part of the Miami Music Festival this year. With working on the new EP and getting ready for Gia to arrive in January I won’t be playing a lot of shows. I also don’t play too often in Miami, so for anyone down that way this is a perfect chance to catch a show.

I’m on first right at 9pm and will play for about 30min. Hope to see some familiar faces there. Details are on the shows page.
