Just one more weekend left at the Oklahoma Renaissance Festival. It was a good weekend. Not nearly as many heat problems, or I'm acclimating a little better.
— Quote of the Weekend: “I never knew an autoharp could be so sexy!”
Spoken after the soon to be infamous “tuning time” of the autoharp.
— The ReverbNation site is going well. I have already climbed to #8 on the Folk Charts. Yay! People like me! And I started my first Street Team promotion to get spread the word about my music, in particular Whiskers in the Jar. I'm still learning how it all works though. Hope to have a few new promotions coming soon.
— I have my first date booked for my Cat CD release–Summer Solstice Instore at Things Celtic. I want to try and organize a few shows in July to promote the album. I was thinking it would be really cool if I could organize some shows at some cat shelters. Anyone want to help me to do so in Dallas, Houston or San Antonio.
— My friend Susi has a cool website for Custom Instrument Bags at www.fiddlybags.com. She does good work. Check 'em out.
— Guerrilla music marketer Bob Baker is holding an Indie Buzz Bootcamp in late June. Well worth attending if you're a musician looking for music promotion advice.
— Last week, I spent a bit o'time working on What Color Is Your Dragon?. I still need to re-record a couple songs. It's tough motivating myself to do so, especially since I have the Irish & Celtic Music Podcast to record this week. And I have a lot of fans asking about the next show.
— Check me out on Myspace, SoundClick, Demand a Show on Eventful, Wikipedia, Facebook, Livejournal, Sonicbids, and DeviantArt. And if you'd like a CD…
