Hey Gang,
Have some exciting news for you. My 3rd CD, Kicks Are For Kids will
be the featured CD on the front page of CD Baby starting Saturday,
June 10th (well, really it's Friday June 9th at midnight PST but
who's counting?). Although the CD is a few years old, they only
recently received it and they think it's one of the best CD's they've
ever heard! Please see below for the review and all the details.

FROM CD BABY:
I love your "Kicks Are For Kids" CD so much I'm going to feature it on
the FRONT PAGE of CD Baby for a few days.

We're REALLY picky about what goes on the front page. We get about
100 new albums a DAY coming in here now, (about 100,000 total), and
yours is one of the best I've ever heard.

OUR REVIEW (feel free to quote it anywhere!) Kicking around cheeky
rhythmic conversation and contemporary classical dissonances, this
sassy modern jazz combo exudes a wonderfully bossy and rebellious
nature, often with rock and urban hip hop-like drums and disgruntled
melodies that give way to stunningly languid ballads and downtempo
numbers, pouring over with sensuality and abandonment. Stellar tenor
saxophonist, Elias Haslanger, leads the way through this ten-track
Kicks Are For Kids, gently pushing the songs along; and whether with
a tender poke or a sharp pinch, every note seems to spill and melt
out of the bell of his horn dripping onto the floor or evaporating
into the air, depending on the heat of the given track. But while his
playing certainly catches the ear, there's not the slightest question
that this group as a whole plays as one solid entity, one voice, one
daring, potent combo.

EMAIL YOUR FANS/FRIENDS ON THAT DAY. Spread the good news.
Sometimes people need to see that other people love you, too, y'know?

TELL EVERYONE TO GO TO:

Love ya!
