I am working with Copycats Media in Minneapolis to print a limited-edition run of 50 cds for our release show on Friday. I have no plans to print more, so if you are like me and prefer the hard-copy of a record, you will want to make your purchase early before these sell out. I plan on making the mp3 version available for download on my website on Saturday for $10.
The album, titled Faraway Farm & The Bird, is intended to be listened straight through. It is the story of a troubled 20-something gent, roughly of my make and model, as he navigates his way through the beginnings of adulthood. I will post more about that this week as well.
I have been entertaining all sorts of value-add possibilities for subscribers to this website, including exclusive audio, video, information, and other content. More on that later this week as I make the final decisions on the matter. Oh! And I also plan on releasing the brand new version of this website by Friday. Whew! I have my work cut out for me this week!
BTW, John, Ryan, and I practiced for 2 hours yesterday and are working out many rough edges so that we will be able to bring it hardcore on Friday at Acadia Cafe!
My new to-do list follows:
- Finish CD Artwork
- Build new website for digital distribution of new album and other premium content
- Create master disc for replication.
- Settle on song order
- Order CDs
- Figure out pricing model for digital content
If you need help building websites for digital distribution let me know.
