Two tunes on the 67 Music podcast

Hi Folks,

First off I'd like to thank all the folks that have bought a cd from me in person or on CD Baby.  Thanks, the support means alot!

You can hear two tracks off my cd, "Noone Lasses/MacArthur's Road" and "Cloonagroe Reel" on the latest SixtySeven Music Podcast.  Thanks guys for including my music on your show. 

And thanks alot to John for buying me that wonderful shot of Lagavulin at the Moon and Sixpence the other night. I have been getting into trying more Scotch's lately, and this one definitely ranks at the top of my list so far.  I went out to buy a bottle the next day, but its a bit expensive for me at the moment.  So i picked up some Laphroag 10 year, which is still quite nice. I think I prefer the whisky's with a peaty taste.

Noone Lasses is now up CD Baby and iTunes

Hi Everyone,

I am excited to announce that my cd, Noone Lasses, is now for sale on CD Baby and iTunes. If you live in Portland and want to get a copy in person just should be an email. 

I am really excited with how the whole package turned out.  The tunes sound great, i really like the sequencing, the artwork is beautiful, and it all fits together so well as a whole. Thanks to Doug, Steve, Cass, and Mike for being a part of it. 

If you have bought or downloaded the album and have any comments, questions, or feedback feel free to post them to comments.  I am always happy to talk about music. 

 

Thanks,

Anton

CD Review on SixtySevenmusic.com

There is a nice little article at www.sixtysevenmusic.com about my and my album.  SixtySeven Music is a local organization here in Portland that works to promote and support irish music in the Northwest.  They have a weekly podcast and radio show.

It looks like i am playing at their one year anniversary party in April, and may be appearing on their radio show sometime soon. 

Thanks Sixty Seven music for the nice review.

CD's have arrived!

The Fedex truck pulled up this morning with five boxes for me, 500 copies of my new CD.  I am pretty excited, its so neat to see it in person, the artwork looks great, and i am happy with the whole package. 

They should be available for mail order from CDBaby.com in a week or two, and iTunes not long after that. I will be sure and post something up about that. If you are in Portland and would like to buy one from me in person just get in touch via email.

My CD is off to the manufactuer

Just a quick note that my cd is off to the manufacturer, Copycats Media.  I went with them on the reccomendation of Little Brother over on the Acoustic Player Magazine Forum.  He recently came out with a cd and used them for manufacturing.  I picked up a copy of the album, and the print quality and packaging looked good, plus Copycat quoted me a good price for a run of 500 real cd's.  Most places the price break comes at a 1000 units, so orders below that are to expensive, or you can get them as CD-R's, essentially the same as a burned cd from your computer.  I want this album to be a legit manufactured CD, not a burned cd, so i am glad i found Copycat.  Worth checking out if you are looking to manufacture some cd's.  

Check back here to see when its for sale, i imagine that will be a few weeks.  My plan is to sell physical CD's and downloads through CD Baby, as well as downloads through iTunes.
