One Thing I Forgot to Mention Monday
|
WICR 88.7FM is playing the new Autumn
House CD on their "New at Noon" show which airs, oddly enough, at
12:00 pm Thursday 2/15/07. I'll be doing a phone interview while trying to uncover my van
from 3 feet of snow and ice. If you hear wheezing then dead air at any point, call 911.

Website gets a facelift
|
The Club Bordeaux
website is gone and has been given a new face, The Autumn House. But, the
address is still the same: www.jeffdeherdt.com. I've added a special Lyrics+ section that includes the all the lyrics and
credits to The Autumn House, Club Bordeaux and the Jeff
DeHerdt Group EP. I will eventually use this section for lyrics to songs that we
play live, but have yet to record. The website will be updated pretty often in 2007, I
plan to add a audio and a video section of interviews and live performances, as well as a
photo gallery of the band during recording and during performances.

Very Late Notice
|
WZPL 99.5FM played the cut "Smitten"
from The Autumn House a couple of times this past weekend. They gave
no notice to me that they were going to play it. But, those of you who heard it and
wondered why it sounded like me, that's because it was.

CD Release Thank-yous
|
Since this newsletter is bi-weekly, I
haven't yet thanked all the fans(O.K., the faithful few) who braved below 0 degree
windchill and ignored Superbowl Parties to come and see the CD release party. But, the
Jazz Kitchen and I are working on a future date for the full band again(probably after
March) and there are plenty of other places I'll be playing before then. Oh, and for the
record, the bass player was Jack Helsley and Harry Goodloe was manning the drums. I forgot
to introduce them during the entire release party.

www.thomasdolby.com -
The "Blinded Me with Science" artist returns to the stage after
making a living inventing ringtone engines for cell phones. His almost-one-man stage show
is really intriguing. |
