Andrew has teamed up with some good friends to be a part of a revolution.  Brite Revolution is a great new idea for music on the internet.  People can subscribe for $4.99 a month to get two new songs each month from all of the 20 or so artists on Brite.  Folks like Andrew, Matthew Perryman Jones, Katie Herzig, Randall Goodgame, and many more.

A large portion of the subscription money goes to fund these new recordings, as well as various non-profit organizations helping to do good throughout the world.  CLICK HERE for Andrew’s artist page.  Viva la Revolution!

I want to clean out my basement AND give you great gifts to give all your friends, neighbors, boyfriends, bosses, stalkers, etc…

I’m making everything cheap. T-shirts are ten bucks, CD’s are twelve (except for the limited copies of Souvenirs and Postcards, which are also ten, and the special deal on Coming to Life.) If you’d like me to autograph a cd for you, just leave that in the notes section when you check out.

Shipping is $2 for 1 to 3 items, $4 for 4 to 6 items and free for anything over that. (In America, that is. International shipping rates will vary.) We’ll ship them out within a day or two of your order.

So without further adieu, here are the goods…

MusicCityUnsigned.com is having me as their featured artist next month, which is awesome. They’re bringing a camera crew out to my show Sunday night at 12th and Porter. I’ve got a KILLER band with me, one of the best I’ve ever had, and I’d love to have a great old rock and roll party playing these tunes with and for my friends. Hope to see you there!

 Emily Deloach: Play Now | Play in Popup | Download (1075)

Andy interviews Nashville singer/songwriter Emily Deloach in the second installment of the “Conversations” series.

Last year I did a little project, an acoustic EP, where all the songs were based off of ideas and photos submitted by readers of this site. Well, that little project turned out to be one of my favorite things I’ve ever done. At the last minute I decided to add “Vol. 1″ to the title, in hopes of continuing the idea later.

It’s later now.

And I’m excited.

So here’s the deal. I’m going to start working on this project in early July, and for this to work at all I will need your help.

The main thing I’m looking for at this point are your ideas. A poem, a photo, a story that’s always inspired or intrigued you; anything you’ve ever thought “somebody needs to write a song about this…” I want to write that song.

Also, any ideas you have sonically. Instruments you’d like to hear or rules you think would be fun to follow. (Strict “rules” were a big part of the first project.)

You can send your ideas to me at this address:

ideas4andy@gmail.com

Anything you send me I’ll read and whatever inspires me I’ll try to write about. Two quick things:

1. By submitting your ideas you release ownership of them to me. (i.e. you won’t get any royalties or copyrights for songs that come from them).

2. If you send me a story you want to share but you want kept confidential (outside of obviously informing a tune) try and make a note of it. Not that I’m going to say anything like this anyway, but I’d hate to post “Jack Jones gave me this great idea about his really embarrassing secret!” in my blog and find out later that wasn’t really for public consumption.

So that’s about it. I’m going to annoyingly document the process this time, and I hope you’ll join me. It was an amazing experience making music with the people that listen last time and I hope to take it a few steps further this go around.

You guys are amazing. Thanks for letting me play music and try out these crazy ideas.

Here we go!
