   About Morty Shallman
Los Angeles-based singer-songwriter, Morty Shallman, specializes in super-melodic pop-rock tunes with a literary twist. His latest CD, "Love's Oblivion," is actually a unique "pop novel," told in a series of twelve hook-filled song "chapters." His next project is a full-length novel with an accompanying CD.

In addition to writing, producing and performing his own music, Morty recently collaborated with top Nickelodeon TV star, Drake Bell, and Brian Wilson band member, Scott Bennett, on a tune for Bell's solo CD, "Telegraph." The song, "Highway to Nowhere," is featured on "The Drake & Josh Show," on another popular MTVN show, "Zoey 101," starring Jamie Lynn Spears, and on several top-selling Nick/BMG soundtrack CD's.

To learn more about Morty Shallman, and to hear and buy his music, please visit www.morty.org, or search for his songs on itunes.com, amazon.com, and many other digitial music services.

Praise for Morty Shallman:

Shallman's music is buoyant, infectious & car-radio ready! -Chicago Sun-Times

A fabulous find! -Gary Gold, Indiejournal.com

Loves Oblivion combines Shallman's lyrical incisiveness with a musical approach that measures favorably against the established melodic yardstick of The Beach Boys and the bluntness of the "This Year's Model" era of Elvis Costello.-Brad Harvey, Daily News

Dear World,

The United States of America, your quality supplier of the ideals of liberty and democracy, would like to apologize for its 2001-2008 service outage.

The technical fault that led to this eight-year service interruption has been located, and the software responsible was replaced on Tuesday night, November 4. Early tests of the newly-installed program indicate that we are now operating correctly, and we expect it to be fully functional by January 21, 2009.

We apologize for any inconvenience caused by the outage, and we look forward to resuming full service, and hopefully even to improve it in years to come.

Thank you for your patience and understanding,

The USA

Just dropping by to leave a quick hello from the folks at Guitar Amplifier Blueprinting and Saunders Stewart Model Management.
  
I hope all is going great! 


On the road since September a lot of the time and now can be found all over the USA.  I am still supporting my tours and doing my normal amp stuff, blueprinting, consulting etc.
 


If you need any help or support just drop me an email for questions and if I am in your area I would be happy to arrange a visit.  I try to post upcoming travel plans on my myspace blog.
