Cover Art

Here is a sneak peak at what the CD will look like.  I found a wonderful NYC artist named Edie Pijers on Etsy.com. Her whimsical style and beautiful use of color is exactly what I was looking for. I asked her to do two original oil on canvas paintings for me and they were commissioned, discussed, and done in a week. I am so happy with them!

In order to send out some promotional copies, I did a quick mock-up and short run order of 100 CDS. The final product will have distributor or a charitable organization's information inside it and will be a much higher quality 4 sided Eco-jacket. The Eco-jackets are really nice. They look good, are light weight to mail, and better for the environment! The final CD will actually be higher quality, too, and will be pressed individually. This first batch will be great for the purposes of pitching the product and getting it out there. Hoping to get a little pre-release press to get some excitement going!

NOTE TO THOSE RECEIVING THESE COPIES:
These first CD's are just reproduction, not pressed CD's. They do not reflect the quality of the final product. They will play on most, but not some CD players - not on an older car CD player, for example. Most players and computers should have no problem. These are only for the purpose of giving the listener a taste of the album and what's to come.
