Hey Guys,
In July I'll be starting to base myself out of the Philippines part time. I've been doing a lot of shows around Asia, so I've decided I'd like to have a home base on that side of that world as well. Splitting my home base up between the US and the Philippines will enable me to play more shows for everyone. I was in the Philippines playing and meeting with labels three times last year and the islands are incredibly beautiful. At some point I'd like to organize a trip for my fans around other parts of the world to come visit for a week or two as a sort of "Rock'n Roll Cruise", but on land. It would be the trip of a lifetime!
Last week Filipino Acoustic/Pop star Nyoy Volante released his album on "Universal Music/MCA Records", and my song "So Hard To Let Go" is track #5! He's known worldwide as one of the pioneers of acoustic music in Asia, and I couldn't be happier with Nyoy's version. Yesterday I recorded a YouTube video of me singing "So Hard To Let Go" in my condo in Nashville.
