And here's how we feel about it....

The VOTD, by the way, is a clip from Tim and Eric Awesome Show: Great Job, a big favorite for Julia and me at the moment.  You can check it out at adultswim.com if you're interested. 

Julia and I are both moving back into major ArtistShare project mode for at least the next seven days.  We've got some content to add to the site for the release, a new promo video (or two) to make, and a series of live performances of the music as well.  The live gigs start with a clinic at the CMEA conference in Sacramento, and that'll be the first time we do the music live with our current setup, which involves the use of Ableton on our new high-end laptop and other assorted fun gear. 

Then, the big event is Tuesday the 16th, which is the release date for the album and the CD release concert at Sac State at 8pm in the recital hall, along with Jazz Singers and C-Sus.  After that we've got a performance at the Salt Lake City Vocal Jazz Festival on Saturday the 27th and a clinic/performance at CSU Long Beach on April 7th and at the UNC/Greeley Jazz Festival on April 22-24.  The last thing on the books, at the moment, is a clinic at the Jazzschool in Berkeley on June 6th. 

It's going to be a really exciting time, and I'll be putting some info in these blog entries, but we'll also be saving some of the details for our ArtistShare site, for the benefit of the people who purchase either the CD or the Download offer.  Take a minute and visit VerticalVoices.us to check out the offers and consider a last-minute pre-order today!!
