It is finally official. I now have a two song publishing contract with The Music Library in Studio City, CA. The two songs are "Rescue Me" and "You Are My Storm," both on my new CD "Rescue Me." They are also interested in "I Could Always Make Her Laugh."

The Music Library has had numerous placements with clients such as RCA Records, Warner Brothers Records, EMI, Buddah Bar, Higher Octave, Neurodisc Records, Warner Brothers Films, Tristar Films, ABC, Disney and HBO. So here's hoping that the next thing I hear from them is about a song placement in a Coen brothers or Pixar film (my kids would think I was a god), or one in the next Grey's Anatomy. Whatever happens, it's kinda sweet.

I went to a show of my former partner-in-crime Ben Wakeman at Eddie's Attic on Friday last week, and toward the end of the show he invited me up on stage to sing with him. It was a lot of fun, and for anyone who didn't see it, the proof is in the camera-phone picture. He had a large crowd and an excellent band, and I encourage you to go see him the next time he performs. Who knows, with any luck, maybe he'll invite me up again.
