Jack Brown: News

Thanks for your patience! The new CD, "The Road To Happy," is available. I received the first shipment Wednesday, June 25, and will be taking all of them to New Mexico and Texas with me. But the next shipment arrives Friday, June 27, and I'll send a case of them to the Library Coffeehouse in Meridian for you to purchase there. Enjoy!

I've just finished final art and sound proofs for my second CD of all-original music. "The Road To Happy" should be available on or around June 26. Watch your e-mail and this web site!

Okay, obviously I don't get into this blog thing. In fact, some of you know I wrote a song about it. But you deserve an update . . .

The new CD, "The Road to Happy," is well on the way to completion! Last week we finished all drums and percussion; we just finished all the piano tracks today; next weekend I hope to finish lead guitar/mando and a guest vocal; and during the next two weeks I'll go back and re-record over all the guitar and vocal roughs. That should put me mixing and mastering over Memorial Day weekend, with the CD available around mid-June. Stay tuned!

Rough tracks for "The Road to Happy," my second studio CD, are complete. So is the photo shoot. Bass and drums should be complete by mid-February, with other tracks finished by mid-March. I hope to finish mixing and mastering in late March and have a CD ready in April 2008!

See my calendar for some big plans for spring and summer! I already have gigs in Portland and Southern California booked, and I expect gigs to come through soon in Salt Lake City, Spokane, Seattle, Dallas, the Mississippi Gulf Coast, and other places down south. Stay tuned for more details!

I've made the finals in the Portland Songwriters Association songwriter showcase finals! Only ten singer/songwriters left! See calendar for date and location.
