songvault featured artist

dear hendrick,
this morning, i received an e-mail from paul john over at songvault, with this message:

"a.w.
feldt,

We want to personally congratulate you in having your song "Strange to Feel So Strangely For a Stranger" placed in the SongVault Directory and in our play list on the SongVault Radio Network.


This is quite an accomplishment and something you should be proud of, considering that your song has been up against hundreds of other songs and has taken several months in order to pass through all the tiered stations.


This is not the end of the journey but just the beginning!

In a few weeks, your song will be on one of our podcast shows to help promote your song on iTunes and other podcast venues.


In 2008, we will be in contact with all the public radio stations to work on partnerships in order to help promote the artist that have made it in the SongVault. Other exciting benefits will be announced over the next year that will help you generate money and build a bigger fan base at the same time.


Dick Clark put it best when he said "Music is the soundtrack of our lives". The songs we like to listen to become part of our life in general.


Thank you for being part of our soundtrack and we look forward to helping promote you and your music further in the months and years ahead.


Best Regards,

Paul John
SongVault. fm"

dear hendrick,
i have included several works here that i have worked on in the somewhat recent past. i hope to keep making fliers and pursuing other artistic endeavors. it's a lot of fun, and makes me quite happy. i look forward to showing you more as time moves forward. i hope you are well. it has been awhile since i've heard from you...
please take care.
sincerely,
a.w.

p.s. i don't know why the cover for simple things is blue. the cover may also be found here.

dear hendrick,
please look at this picture.

a.w.

bear in mind

dear hendrick,
i just bought a shirt this week with a bear on it. it's my new favorite. it also has native american markings on it. there's one that looks like a child's drawing of a dog with huge teeth. yes, please. i've been going thrifting with my lady and her mum this weekend. it's been a whole lot of fun. i have a nice warm coat. i have the most comfortable shoes i've ever owned (to my recollection). i have a nice, warm sweatshirt. i have a warm blanket, green military wool. i have joy.

the other night, i was able to play with a group called bang bang eche. because i was playing a set with a dance/rock band, i decided to do some sorts of casio drum beats, and it went over really well. i am currently working on recordings using these beats, and hope to be able to post an ep on cllct soon.

it has recently been determined that i will be moving back to pocatello for the spring semester of 2009. i look forward to this, but also dread leaving connie in pa. i have a place lined up for this summer, and am currently working on a tour of the u.s. and montreal, quebec area.

recently, my friend james put together some artwork for a full-length that i've been trying to work out. he has done a wonderful job. you may see a piece of the artwork here as the profile picture. enjoy.

things are continually looking up for a.w.feldt.

thank you.

a.w.
