Lines In The Dirt update

Well, it’s been a crazy summer around here since the official release of Lines In The Dirt on July 10. I’ve been a little out of touch, but family vacations, work at my company, DeepMix, as well as the CD promotion, have kept me hopping.

I christened the album with a couple of CD release shows back in Nebraska, which were a blast. In late July, I had the great pleasure to make my headlining debut at Freight & Salvage in Berkeley – one of the finest folk clubs in the country. Also heard from a few friends from as far away as Florida who caught me on West Coast Live -- a syndicated radio show out of San Francisco hosted by Sedge Thomson. An Associated Press writer, Steve Wine, did me a great favor by reviewing the album which appeared in papers all over the country including the San Francisco Chronicle . The CD has fared well on a couple of radio charts – #7 on the US Folk chart and #5 at Euro-Americana. And a few songs from Lines are currently in rotation on XM Radio’s “X Country” channel 12.

Upcoming shows in the next few months take me to California, Texas, Tennessee (Bluebird cafe debut), Colorado, Washington, and finally Virginia where I’ll be opening for Suzy Bogguss at the legendary Birchmere. Hope you can make it out to say hello. Show details can be found on my website .

If you haven’t picked up the CD or if you have some friends who might enjoy it, you can order Lines just about anywhere CDs are sold. If you order through my website , I make a few extra bucks and shipping is free on orders of 2 or more. You can also purchase the downloads at iTunes or MySpace. I appreciate the support and any help you can provide spreading the word about the record! Cheers. –BC
