"Dog Eared " the title track off of Michael's upcoming album
was featured prominently on the second episode (shown as part two of
the pilot) of MTV's new season of the Real World San Diego.

THE BEST LAID PLANS, ETC......
Things have changed regarding the planned November release of dog
eared on a previous label. The new plan is for a street date of
24 February, 2004 (just in time for Valentine's Day....) on Low Heat
Records (www.LowHeat.com),
distributed by the good, good people at Redeye Distribution (www.redeyeusa.com).
They should have it out through their extensive network of major and independent
retailers, Internet sales outlets and even cutting edge outlets like iTunes.
The album is already making an impression, though, even before it's released.
It's already been licensed for possible use in soundtracks for MTV's
Real World, Road Rules and Extreme Sports shows. And
another popular television show has expressed interest as well--details
to follow.
Be sure to check out The CMJ
Monthly Magazine (College Music Journal) website in November :
Can't Feel My Soul will be available as a free MP3 download. .
The February issue will include Disconnect - track 2 on the new
album on it's free CD with every copy. Pick yours up as soon as they're
available!
