hey everyone!
first and foremost, i hope you're all enjoying your summer.
sorry, it's been so long since i've written, but there is lots to catch you all up on!
my record label is about to release my 2nd single, which is "Love" and will be on your radio stations soon, so please make sure to start requesting it. my song "Love" will also be featured in an upcoming mcdonald's commercial. which is amazing! i actually just got back from LA where I was filming my little cameo role in the spot. everyone at mcdonald's and arnold (the ad agency) were super cool. i'm pretty sure that the commercial starts airing on september 1st.
i'm also about to shoot the video for "Love", which i'm so excited about, because we're shooting it in my hometown of new york city.
let's see, what else, oh yeah… i'm leaving on thursday for a little summer mini-tour, so make sure to check my website for all of the dates and come see me if you live in a city nearby the shows. i'm completely honored to be opening for the legendary B.B. King at his show in new hampshire. i'm also about to announce a bigger tour that goes from august 11th – september 11th, so stay tuned for those (and, yes! i'm finally coming to the west coast!).
canada, here I come! i'll be playing some shows with Sheryl Crow as well as some of mine own shows the last week of september/first week of october, so check out my website for those dates and more will be added soon. i think my album comes out there on september 2nd.
lastly, the people have spoken and selected a winner from salt lake city for the people's choice contest. i'm so looking forward to getting into the studio and recording the new version of "New York Girls" and going to the people's choice awards show with the winner in january.
stay tuned for some more fun little videos from the road.
hope to see you all soon!
much love,
matt white
