A Year In Review

Well, here we are, another year gone by and what do we have to show for it? I think this is the time for a bit of reflection just to see what we have all accomplished.

For me personally I feel that a lot has happened. What did I accomplish? I wrote 14 songs and recorded an album! To me that was my biggest accomplishment. It was a lot of work and I'm proud of the end result. I was able to introduce my music to people all over the world and to my surprise it was received positively.

I've sold a few CDs and MP3s. My song "I Think Of You" has been sitting in the number one spot on Soundclick's Adult Contemporary category for the past several weeks. I've had various songs from the album getting airplay on several radio stations, both Internet and terrestrial. I've included a list at the end of this blog.

I found a foster home for my dog Lola. She has a new companion, Jasmine, and I get to see them every day and take them for walks.

What's in store for 2008? I'm working on putting a band together so I can start performing my music in front of live audiences. I'll continue my songwriting with hopes of having enough material to produce a follow-up album by year's end. In the next couple of months I'll be able to move Lola into my home.

I feel blessed to have so many friends who care about me and have been there for me when I needed support. I have two amazing children that I love dearly, and I have the love and support of my girlfriend and muse, Leanne, who makes life worth living.

We all have struggles and difficulties throughout our lives that can often seem overwhelming. I try to look at the bigger picture and remind myself of all the good things I have in my life and put it all into perspective. It doesn't seem so bad that way!

To all my friends, peace and love always.
Steve

A Song For Christmas

I'm currently playing bass in a musical stage show called "A Song For Christmas" written by my friend, Erik Przytulski. The show is a contemporary original musical. It's a really fun show with beautiful songs and a wonderful holiday message.

The show is being performed at the Ebell Club theater in Santa Ana (French St. and Civic Center). There are four more shows this coming weekend, Friday through Sunday. If you're in the southern California area I urge you to come on down and see the show. I promise it's a show you'll really enjoy!

If you do come to the show please take a moment to stop by and say "Hi"!

peace & love,
Steve

Own Tallulah Lake for $7.79

Yes, it's true! You can own my new CD, Tallulah Lake, for just $7.79. Is there a catch? Of course there is! CD Baby is carrying the CD for $12.99 --- BUT if you purchase more than one copy then you get EACH COPY for 20% OFF. Wow! That's just $10.39 a copy.

But wait...you're probably asking yourself "didn't he say $7.79???". Well yes I did. Here's the catch. If you purchase 3 copies - and they make wonderful Christmas gifts - then I will throw in a fourth copy absolutely FREE!!! In fact, I will even autograph a copy (if that's your idea of a good time). That comes out to just $7.79 a copy. (Do the math. I did and I'm pretty sure it's correct)

Please support independent artists. We work hard and spend thousands of dollars to produce our art. Most of us are a long way off from actually making any money from this. We do it because we love it.

Peace & love throughout the holiday season.
