Hiya Peeps!
Here's an update on the CD arrival. It has taken longer than I hoped to get the physical CDs pressed. It looks like I will get a small shipment in time for the CD Release Party at Amnesia in S.F. April 21st 5:30-8. Facebook Event
And Northwest Tour April 26th-May 5th with Perpetual Drifters Facebook Event
If U go to any of these Shows, please come and talk to me, and I will give U your CD.
I should have the rest of the shipment by early May.
I will be sending U all a survey to get updated shipping info and package details.
I am so very thankful for your patience. I can't wait for U to get your copy of "Lover's Cliche"!!!

Update #11: Artwork and Master have been sent to Press!
Hello-
I'm am so thrilled to announce that the Artwork is completed and we just knocked off the final touches on mastering today and my new album "Lover's Cliche" has officially been sent to Pressing.
Big thanks to Rick Whitmore (Artwork Designer) and Mike Gibson (Mastering Engineer) for doing such a top notch job on the Lover's Cliche Project.
I under-estimated the amount of time it takes to print CDs. I was under the impression it took 5 business days. Because the layout to Lover's Cliche is a little more unique then a standard digipak, the pressing can take up to 15 business days to get the CDs. Yoicks!
So while I was in Auckland NZ last week performing for primary schools, I was also working with Rick Whitmore in LA to proof artwork and fill out forms for the Printer. Today I finished the Final Master with Mike Gibson, and I made it to the post office right before they closed!
I am crossing fingers that I get the CDs by April 20th, so send me good vibes!
I have a San Francisco CD Release April 21st at Amnesia
5-8:30 pm
$7-10 Cover

Update #10: Behind The Scenes: Mastering Uni and her Ukelele's Album "Lover's Cliche"
Mastering is the final stage of the recording process. I am very pleased I got to master my new album "Lover's Cliche" with Mike Gibson of Munki Mastering in Wellington, New Zealand. February 9, 2012 Such a pleasure!
My next step is to listen to it on crappy speakers for the next few weeks. If all is good, Mastering is complete. My two final steps for finishing album are " Artwork" and "Pressing" My goal is to have everything ready for pressing in March. I will be updating as I go.
Kickstarter Pledgers!!! I will be collecting your information in March to get U your packages together to send in April!
Super ding!
