Big Chris & D'Bare Bones Band presale!

If you would like to get a copy of the new CD before they go up on CD Baby, just send $10 via PayPal by clicking this link:

https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=S765ZD5NZCWNS

Be sure your address is confirmed.  This $10 offer will include your shipping.  The CD will be $9.99 at CD Baby but that price won't include shipping charges.  I can only do this in the United States, though, as international shipping is outrageous.

I am looking at ways to offer FLAC files for those of you interested in that.

You can get FLAC, AIFF & MP3 through Bandcamp.

I may have to look into that, then.

You can still get the presale for $10 at the above link.  Take advantage of it today!  If you have already ordered, thank you!  I have mailed out everything so far.

I am waiting to hear from CD Baby.  The album will be available there any day.  It will soon follow on Amazon, iTunes, Rhapsody, all the streaming sites.  Roxx Productions is even stocking several copies in their online store as well!

Sa-weet!

Great news!

I need to do the pre-sale, but might have to wait until payday.

I will keep the "presale" open for CHM.  If you need to wait until payday, just let me know.

Ordered!

Yours went out yesterday, Mike!  I knew it was you just because it was from some guy named Mike....in Florida!  Thanks!

I've ordered mine last weekend.

The progress you have made with this new blues CD is so impressive.

Mine arrived today!  Going to listen to it tonight!

Yeah, I didn't want too get to complicated! 

Well, what can I say!  I've enjoyed all your other albums in the past (especially Hostile as that seemed to come together really well), but this time you've outdone yourself.  I think your vocals are perfect for the new style of music that you're playing.  All the tracks have got a great feel to them, and although I've only listened to it three or four times I loved listening to it from start to finish.  Stand out tracks from me are Rest In Peace, Walmart Blues, Bound For A Throne, Telephone and Thank You!  Really top notch album, and also have to give a nod to the guys who did a superb job of mastering the album.

I think you've found your new avenue for music alldat!

I've certainly found a place where I feel like I am giving my all and enjoying the music making more.  I've got a lot of material written for future releases, too.

However, this is already harder to market than my metal stuff.  My hard rock fans aren't paying attention to it.  The cigar box guitar community doesn't even react to the music I've posted.  I get a couple of likes if I post to a blues page or forum, but that isn't really helping either.  I didn't expect to sell out in a couple of days, but I've only sold 5 thus far not counting the ones I wholesaled to Roxx Productions.  Maybe having it out on CD Baby and MP3 sales sites will help.

If you want to hear clips of every song, get the CD, or get the downloads, the CD is available now through CD Baby.

However, for my friends here at CHM, I will keep the presale going if anyone is interested.

Is Septh 6th going to be too late to order from you?
I just balanced the checkbook last night and it isn't pretty.

I've posted the cdbaby site on my facebook page.

I can wait.  This presale is for my CHM family.  I will honor the price.

I've always had some issue with your vox before but they fit this project well. Money sent!

I am going to take that as a huge compliment, Michael!  I've always had to strain to try to sound like a metal vocalist.  I am a baritone and that doesn't always work.  With this album, I decided to do any songs that seemed to high on a lower pitched guitar.  I could let the harmony vox fill in that higher register so that the whole album seems more natural and relaxed vocally.

Still hasn't come in the mail yet but I will give it a few more days. Maybe Tuesday it will get here. The USPS is terrible about leaving our packages at other houses. They do it all the time and give us other people's mail.

Could your mail be slow due to the hurricane?


If it doesn't show up soon, I will replace it free of charge.  Then, if both copies arrive, I would ask you to donate the extra to someone.

Not sure, other items I ordered the same week arrived with no problems. In fact, UPS delivered another package to the house while it was raining (no bad weather here at all but it was bad north of here). Your package may have come thru Jacksonville and that might have slowed it down. I'll give it a few more days and let you know.

Replaying the song "When Your Time Comes" over and over again.  That song is very infectious!
