About this project
I am funding a "creative" record deal, signing a 3 song deal for 1 year with Universal UK. The terms are that if I put "X" amount on the table for marketing, that the label will put that same amount down to fund the marketing/launch of the 3 song deal. This enables me to have more creative control of the songs released. The songs have already been recorded and produced in Nashville by Grammy Producer, Ray Barnette and they sound AMAZING! Can't wait for you to hear them!
This type of deal also allows me to tour and work with anyone I'd like versus the artist on my label's line card. Once we sign this deal, I will be added to the UK tour in October 2011, so stay tuned for more info about that!!
Over the next few weeks I hope you'll join with me to help us have the biggest EP launch that we can. We get one chance to go out of the gate....and this is it! :)
p.s. one of the songs was co-written by Billy Dean (SO exciting!!)
Thank you for always believing in me & this dream! I could never have made it here without you! Feel free to share the link as well!
Hugs, Shelly
