HOTB - Another tribute

This is nothing more than one of the YouTube videos that has been snagged and put on someone's website:


From their website: "BeerTrek is your Number One Source for News and Information about
Beer and Travel on the Web."

Whatever... more exposure for my song!

'"Hats Off to Beer!" and Other Love Songs' Now on CDBaby

Is indicated earlier, the CD has been submitted to CDBaby.com, and now it is live!  I haven't yet figured out how to actually buy it, but that'll come.  I'm thinking that you can only buy it by going to one of the digital outlets that CDBaby sends it to.  None of those are live yet, but these are the thirteen companies to which it has been submitted:


I'm excited for it to go live on iTunes, if it even does.  Then, I'll know that "Hats Off to Beer" has arrived.

The Cutaways Practice HOTB

Last night my band, The Cutaways, had a band practice. We were going over songs for an upcoming wedding gig. We went over a few of the slow dances, waltzes, and polkas that we don't normally play at gigs. We also went over a few wedding essentials. One of the songs that we went through was "Hats Off to Beer". It actually sounded very good! I played bass, so it was a bit difficult for me, but by the end of the songs I had it down. We're thinking about putting it into the regular rotation at gigs. Perhaps it could become a crowd favorite. I will be sure to post an mp3 or video clip of The Cutaways doing HOTB as soon as one becomes available.

Coming Soon: HOTB on CDBaby.com


I just returned from the post office.  I mailed off a copy of a new CD that I just assembled entitled, "Hats Off to Beer!" and Other Love Songs.  All of the songs were recorded when I was with The Black Velvet Band, back in the early-to-mid-nineties.  I just took the songs that I sang - most of which I wrote - and combined them with a few instrumentals, and there you are: a full CD.

Of course, the whole purpose of this little project is a marketing ploy to get "Hats Off to Beer" a little more exposure.  I will post the link as soon as it has been activated by the good folks at CDBaby.
