International Songwriting Treat!
A wonderful evening awaits if you take the chance to hear these 5 singer-songwriters/ bands from around the globe. Following their Manhattan CMJ Music Marathon concerts together last fall, they have joined up to tour the Southeast, culminating in showcasing at SXSW and Canadian Music Week in Toronto. Do your soul a favor and spend the evening with them, you'll be glad you did!

The Story
Robert Singerman (NYC) is known for discovering and developing new talent, and is a forerunner in the exploration and development of new concepts in the music industry. He has worked in the music business for over thirty years, representing at various times R.E.M., Gipsy Kings, James Brown, Suzanne Vega, Sun Ra, Violent Femmes, 10,000 Maniacs, Smithereens, Beastie Boys, Fela Kuti and King Sunny Ade. He has founded US labels; Fetish and Roadrunner, and has been meticulously involved in album and TV production; music supervision and consulting; co-founding music incubator and internet consulting firms.
In the spring of 2011, Singerman coached a songwriting camp in Austria, where he met Jerry Lindqvist as well as singer/songwriters Ashley Fayth from Newfoundland, Canada and Nanna Larsen from Denmark. In September, Singerman was a panelist at the Cutting Edge Music Conference in New Orleans, where he met and heard the music of Texan artist, Tiffany Shea, who currently resides in Nashville.
In October, at the invitation of Singerman, Ashley Fayth, Tiffany Shea and Jerry Lindqvist & The Grace played an official CMJ showcase together in NYC. They all discussed co-touring in 2012, starting with SXSW in March. As a seasoned US touring veteran, Tiffany Shea agreed to coordinate and book a tour from Nashville to Austin and then up to Toronto for CMW; co-producing alongside Singerman the “First Annual International Songwriters Tour.”

Merry Christmas!
...I wrote my first ever Christmas song a couple of weeks ago . I don't know why, getting older I guess. Please have a listen & Merry Christmas y'all!
...This time of year a lot of different "best albums of the year lists" are being posted. Rivertown made it into a couple of lists and made it into the Top 50 albums of 2011 on musikkbloggen.no! Check it out here: www.musikkbloggen.no
Rivertown was #8 on Best Finnish Albums of 2011 by Turku Rock City. Thanks!
"Länsirannikolta kotoisin olevalle Jerrylle on ilmeisesti syötetty isän countrylevyjä päivittäin vauvaiästä lähtien kuvittelisin. Se kuuluu, koska tyylitaju on loistava, biisit hyviä ja kokonaisuus toimii. Suomen paras countryalbumi 70-luvun Country Expressin jälkeen." - Meteli/Toimituksen valinnat 2011
