The Moog Foundation and me!

Wow! What a great honor! My "Moog-Tastic!" album was selected to help raise funds for the Moog Foundation, a charitable organization, headed by Michelle Moog-Koussa (Bob Moog's daughter.)
We set it up so that, for a $75 donation, people can get my "Moog-Tastic!" CD, the "Destination Space" CD that I did with Jean-Jacques Perrey, and a photo, signed by both JJ and me.

The book will soon be on the shelves of national bookstores, and all just in time for....you guessed it... CHRISTMAS!

Speaking of which, it feels like Christmas up here in the Seattle area, since we currently have our first snowfall. I'm missing all the fun on the streets (something like 3400 accidents the first day!) Instead, I'm stuck inside my studio, recovering from oral surgery. I'll survive! More time to blog.

More info on the book soon!

Interview requests for Jean-Jacques Perrey, or myself, Dana Countryman can be sent to publicity@sterlingswanpress.com

"Kitsch Niche" interview is on-line!

Luxuria Music's "Kisch Niche" radio host Strike interviewed me about my new "Moog-Tastic!" album on Aug. 9th, 2010. The (gulp!) 3-hour show has been archived for your convenience SHOULD you want to listen to it.

Strike was super-nice to me, and during the show, listeners were invited to call in and receive giveaway copies of the CD.

If you have three hours laying around, check out the link to interview... and THANKS, Strike and Luxuria Music!
