After a 2 year hiatus from Atlanta’s original music scene, I am gearing up to return with my brand new album “Lucky Ones”. My friend and co-producer, Clay Cook, put it best when he said that this album is my “Sea Change” (google Beck and this album’s descriptions). Once you learn the correlation, you will know what to expect from “Lucky Ones”.
Highly inspired by Elliott Smith and Tom Petty this time around, I decided that I wanted to go a slightly different direction with this one and record a more organic and heartfelt album built around the acoustic guitar and piano. I am very happy with the sounds Clay and I were able to achieve on this one. I feel like this is a collection of the best songs I have written to date. I finally have made the album that I have always wanted to make and it just so happens that I had a lot of inspiration surrounding me this past year. For those of you expecting the more upbeat rock tunes found on my previous albums, I hope that you are pleasantly surprised by this one.
I’ve been a music journalist for more than 10 years. Over the years, many artists and managers have asked me what the best way to break into the European music market is.
Here are some things you can do:
Publish artist press releases, news, and tour dates to the CountryHome Forum on MySpace, http://groups.myspace.com/CountryHomeMagazine , CountryHome Forum is part of CountryHome, http://www.CountryHome.de , Germany's Premier Country Music Online Magazine. Everything you publish to the CountryHome Forum will be published in my weekly Newsletter which has over 80,000 readers.
Send me CDs and DVDs for review and set up an artist interview with me. All reviews and interviews will be submitted to the magazines I'm writing for. More information for which magazines I'm writing can be found at http://www.MySpace.com/ChristianLamitschka

Each additional video upload for the same artist name and at the same video website is 10 Euro.
