Bummer. Hi. OK. Guess once again I'm dumb. I went to Borders on Tuesday. " Hey - Do you have the brand new Susan Werner CD pretty please? ". No can do. Our computers have no information. How about a copy of "I Can't Be New"? No. Great album though. So - the new Susan CD is available ONLY thru her website and at the shows? Or will it make it's way to Borders eventually? What does it say on the CD about what "label" it is on? Is Susan her own record company now? Like Ani Difranco? How could the record business have sunk to the point where a woman with the voice and talent and stunning songwriting ability of Susan Werner cannot find a record company? At least we still have Britney Spears. Bob Paterson

Or like thousands of artists, including many that used to be on major labels? Being on your own label isn't a bad deal anymore, particularly since you get all of the profit from sales.

She might have chosen to release it on her own. Distribution can be tricky if you do it yourself, so it may not show up in Borders anytime soon. However, it is on CDBaby (http://cdbaby.com/cd/susanwerner7), which is a great online store for indie musicians. I don't have the CD sitting in front of me to check, but according to Amazon (it's available there, too), the label is Sleeve Dog Records.

As I said last week, after Folk Alliance I'd be shocked if she didn't get it onto a label sooner rather than later. The record is at radio now, though -- so call your favorite folk show/non-commercial radio station and request it!! I'll be debuting it on Wild Woman Radio on WNHU (88.7FM in the New Haven, CT area, streaming online at wnhu.net) this Sunday between 4-6 pm. > How could the record business have sunk to the point where a woman with the > voice and talent and stunning songwriting ability of Susan Werner cannot find > a record company? Welcome to the world of independent music. Spend ten minutes on MySpace or browsing CD Baby and you'll see just what a huge world it is.
