Fantastic news! My Netherlands tour payed off in a BIG way! I just signed a deal with Continental Record Services in The Netherlands for distribution of The River Grace and Hollow Bones all over Europe. CRS is the European distributor of Rounder Records with artists such as Alison Krauss, Rhonda Vincent, and Kathleen Edwards. The European release is scheduled for October and I am planning on going back there in the spring of '11 for another tour. Thank you to all who supported me in getting there and making a dream come true!

I am holding the new EP in my hands, and I must say it is a thrill. What started out as a simple project with some live recordings for my fans turned into an year project! It always works this way, and I am thrilled that I got to work with producer David Piper on this project. Most of the basic tracking and rhythm tracks were laid down with David Piper on bass and Greg Glassman on drums and me singing. This allowed us to add the rest of the instrumentation on top, but not without some challenges. Live recording can always offer challenges. For example, one song that didn't make the final cut had a strange click that bled into all the microphones we were tracking with. There was no way to take it out, so we scrapped the song. It worked out perfectly though, because we decided to replace that song with the final track "Banks of the Mississippi," which rounded out the EP nicely!
There were some great players on the EP! Harmonica legend Jim Fitting (Sessions Americana), guitar genius Lyle Brewer (Sarah Borges), Pedal Steel veteran Adam Ollendorf from Nashville (Annie and the Beekeepers), Julie Melcalf on fiddle, David Wax on jarana huasteca, Tom Combs on acoustic guitar, Greg Glassman on drums and background vocals (Sacred Shakers), and David Piper on just about everything else!
I hope you enjoy it as well!
That is right folks! On April 1st we will be descending upon the The Netherlands for a wonderful three week tour. In preparation for this fantastic event we have been getting new cd's ready! Joe's second full length album, "All in Good Time" is hot off the press, and my new EP "Hollow Bones" is so hot, I already blew through the first order! You can order a copy of Joe's cd at: www.joeiadanza.com.
