Hello to all my Soulful Friends!

Sometimes it's hard to believe how fast time passes. The last newsletter I sent out to you was in the spring, and here it is Autumn already, and Thanksgiving has just passed. I just can't keep up! So here I am once again with the 7th edition of the Soulful Sound Music newsletter. In this issue I have a couple of good news items to share and I also wanted to give you a "heads up" about our next show at Cornelia St. Cafe in NYC this coming Wednesday, 11/28 (see details below.)

In other news, I wanted to take a moment to give congratulations to a couple of very talented friends. First off, Ragan Whiteside has released her CD, "Class Axe." She had her standing room only CD release party last week at the Village Underground. If you haven't yet had a chance to check out her music, go to her website at www.raganwhiteside.com.

Secondly, bassist and vocalist, Miriam Sullivan, is busy working on her debut CD release as a leader. The work will feature her original music. She also has a new website where you can read more about what she's been up to. Visit the website at: www.miriamsullivan.com.

Thanks, as always, for your love, support and encouragement. It keeps me going especially when times get hard. I appreciate each and every one of you and give thanks constantly for your presence in my life. Thanks for being always there.

CD Baby News
"Always There" Places #8 on List of Top Sellers

CD Cover i just recently found out that CD Baby has a list of its top sellers in each genre of music. Apparently, Always There is listed under the Jazz category in the Soul/Jazz category at #8. Not bad, considering how many thousands of independent artists are selling their CDs there.

So, In celebration of this, we're offering the CD for a limited time only at a reduced price of $7.99 ($ 5.99 to download.) Please note that the reduced price won't show on the "sellers list" but just click on the "Always There" cd cover and you'll be brought to my page where the corrected special price is listed. Happy Holidays!

Shinzone Compilation
"Light My Fire" included on Japanese CD Compilation

Shinzone, a well-known Japanese designer label has several boutiques which are very popular in Japan. Recently, Shinzone collaborated with Columbia Music Entertainment in the release of a CD compilation to sell in their stores. The idea was to feature some of Columbia's artists in the stores, thus helping to bring increased exposure to each artists' individual CDs on the Columbia label.

The CD was released this past June. My recording of Light My Fire was chosen as one of the tracks. Other artists featured on the compilation are: Zonke, Culture Clan and Inger Marie.


Upcoming Shows
Wednesday, November 28 @ Cornelia St. Cafe, NYC

This coming Wednesday, November 28, we'll be playing at the Cornelia St. Cafe (29 Cornelia St., NYC) in the village. Some of you may remember this place as it's where we did our "Bon Voyage" show last year, prior to leaving for our tour of China/Asia.

We'll be sharing the bill with vocalist, Sarah DeLeo, who will go on at 8:30 pm. We'll follow with a set at 9:30 pm. This show is part of a monthly series being presented by Jon Sobel and Soul of the Blues. You can check out both bands for one low cover price of $10. You can get more information about the Cornelia St. Cafe at: http://www.corneliastreetcafe.com.

Soulful Sound Music is an independent company formed and operated by yours truly, Mala Waldron. We're on a shoestring budget at the moment and making the most of word-of-mouth marketing. This means the more you spread the word about the new music, our performances and this newsletter, the more publicity gets generated, hopefully resulting in CD sales. At least that's how it works theoretically folks.
