MY FIRST EVER SOLO ALBUM IS COMING SOON! Buy your special addition pre-release copies now!!!
Dearest family, friends and fans!
I hope you have had some wonderful holidays with friends and family and Happy New Year!!!! I am holing up in this cold weather and composing the songs that will be on my first ever solo album! It is something that I have thought about for many years, and haven't had the chance to make happen. So 2012 is the year! I like to actually think of 2012 as our year as I think it is going to be an incredible one for all of us!!!
This will be my first experience of recording an album purely as a solo musician, and it is completely exhilarating and exciting to watch it unfold!
I plan to take my collection of songs into the studio to record in March and April. I will be joining the amazing engineer Zach Goheen in Chicago, Illinois. Guesting on a few tracks will be some members of JT and the Clouds and possible other local Chicago musicians. And after all these years of working with my favourite musical partner Miss Allison Russell, I would no doubt be sad without at least one appearance from her!
The process is amazing and I really wanted to reach out and have you play a part in it all. I'm going to be selling special edition pre-release copies of the album to help fund the process, but also asking for people who are able to donate above and beyond the price of the album to really help this wonderful journey!
With the special edition pre-release copies, there will be a free download for a secret track that will not be included on the actual album. You will also receive your signed copy two months ahead of the release date which is set for August 20th, 2012. I will be releasing special videos with updates and sneak previews that only the pre-release purchasers will be able to view! Once you purchase your copies of the album, you will receive an e-mail from me with the Login name and password to view the secret page on my website called Solo Album News. With your login name and password go to Solo Album News Login under the NEWS heading and you will recieved further instructions from there. With the purchase please leave your full mailing address and e-mail address. The pre-release copies will cost a minimum of $35 CDN shipping included world wide, but donations above and beyond this would be amazing and so welcome. You can really make a difference and help make this happen!
Contributors who donate $500 or more will have their names in the album credits and given two free tickets to a live show of their choice.
To purchase your copies and donate please click on one or both of the buttons below and you will be directed to a secure paypal page.
Thank you so much for all your support over the years, it has been a wonderful journey and there is still so much to come.
All the best to you in the amazing year ahead!!!
Much love always
Awna Teixeira
