Signed Atlantic Deal!!!

Hi everyone!

I have some really awesome news that I couldn't wait to report to everyone. You folks have been so consistent about wanting the CD, and I'm glad to finally have this excellent news. It's funny because I've waited my whole life to be able to say this…. I signed my Artist deal with Atlantic Records this week, and we're ready to get to work finishing up my upcoming release. After a meeting in NYC last week, I've secured the services of "Commissioner" Gordon Williams to help me wrap up the album. Gordon is a Grammy winning engineer and mixer who has worked with Joss Stone, Amy Winehouse, Lauren Hill, The Fugees, Santana, Aretha Franklin and a host of other great artists. So for those of you who've been asking I think we're probably going to drop in JANUARY.

I'd also like to congratulate Doop who is the second Inside Outlaw to put his pen to ink this week, signing his publishing deal with Nashville's up and coming Music Row Publisher, Highland Music. You're the man!

I owe a great deal of gratitude to everyone involved in this including God, Kid Rock, Sam Wood, Ila and Tonya – who this would not be possible without.

So there it is! I want to thank everyone out there who has helped us out when we needed it, and those who helped me up with their awesome words of support over the years. I promise to do my best to make you folks proud!

DO NOT MISS the Inside Outlaws Collective of bands performing at Comerica Cityfest (formerly Tastefest) on the 4th of July, 2007! And guess what… It's FREE! Performances by Ty Stone, Doop, Scott Kinson, Matt D'Mitz, Pat V and the Detroit 3, Screamray, and Six Steps In. Many special guests! Plan to see the show of the summer, Detroit! Thank you all!

God Bless,

Go To Bed!

ps. Brian Irwin is the greatest producer of Singer/Songwriters in the universe. If you don't call him to do your record, you're being stupid. Call him. Seoung Lee is the Tiger Woods of Photography as well as the worlds greatest personal DJ. Except maybe DJ Invisible. Matt D cannot be left out. JC$. No matter what, you cannot fuck with Uncle Kracker. Chance is next. Jessica Amen. Troy. It's always nice to see Sheree. CBond and Michael Leon Kettlewell cause he's a true pimp. Thanks for all your help and support over the years! I love MOST of you like family. Some of us are just friends, but we'll see how it goes.
