I’m so excited to share that UK-based UNCUT magazine ran a full-page review and interview of my upcoming album, “Before the Future” and they featured the title track on the sampler CD! It’s the August 2025 issue.
UNCUT has been my favorite music magazine of recent years, and we have a family tradition of looking for the new issue at Vroman’s in Pasadena. (There’s a delay of a few weeks before new issues reach the states).
The writer John Lewis wrote very thoughtfully, and I appreciate that the magazine did fact-checking. I find it hard to bring myself to read write-ups about my music because, among other reasons, so often they will have glaring factual errors where the writer (if there really was a human writer) made an illogical assumption based on information provided.
I also always assumed that you had to pay like 10K to be on a sampler CD. I could see that being a thing back in the early 00’s when record label budgets were huge, so I was relieved to find that it is completely free at UNCUT, they simply ask that you wave the mastering license fee for using the song on the CD.
