Hey Everyone, here's a few updates. I'm finally working on the new Jimmy Bean record again. I'm hoping to have it done by the end of summer... We'll see. I'll be posting a song or two soon so from the new CD, so stay tuned! It looks like I'm going to put out the old Handy with Shovels songs on my label, "Fuzzy Monkey Records" I have one more song to track down called "Black" from a fellow band mate. So as soon as I get that, I'll start on the cover and will hopefully have something together in the fall. Once again stay tuned. While building my new studio I met a guy named Scott who is in this two piece band called "We Prick You". He and band partner Marcus came over to check out the new studio, and have decided to cut a couple of tracks here. These guys have the most amazing sound. I will be linking their My Space site soon, so be on the look out for that. I had a very talented girl from the neighborhood over with her parents to record an original song for the Girls Rock camp up north. Emma rocked! She is a very talented singer/ song writer. Her Dad played some guitar for her while she did a cover of Carol King song also. It was just amazing. I'm hoping to get her onto a new all kids original song CD effort, along with other kids from the Sacramento area, which so far include: Chad, Maddy and Emily. If you have a child who would like to try out for this CD please contact me. The profits from this disc will be divided evenly amongst the kids. There is NO COST if your child is selected to record their song. Again contact me for details. Okay, everyone take care! Jimmy
