Hey everyone, Great news! On Saturday, May 16th, the Association for Independent Music (AFIM- formerly NAIRD) announced the 1998 Indie Award Winners. Richard's album, REUNION HILL, was named Best Folk, Contemporary album! These awards are considered the Grammy's of independent music so this is *quite* an honor. And check out the the nominees in the category: Greg Brown - Slant 6 Mind Bruce Cockburn - The Charity of Night David Mallett - Parallel Lines Maura O'Connell - Wandering Home Richard Shindell - Reunion Hill David Wilcox - Turning Point Pretty stiff competition! These days, aside from being honored with awards, Richard is dividing his time between recording the much-anticipated album of cover songs with Dar Williams and Lucy Kaplansky (collectively known as Cry Cry Cry) and doing some great solo gigs. The most exciting concert news is that Richard and Lucy are going to be playing at THE BOTTOM LINE in New York City on May 30th! This is Richard's first time headlining at The Bottom Line and he and Lucy will do two sets, with Richard closing the first set and Lucy closing the second. Vance Gilbert will be opening the shows and with these 3 on one bill, it's going to be QUITE the evening. In other news, for those of you who don't yet have all three of Richard's CDs, now is a perfect time to order them. We have just signed up with CD Universe in a deal that offers you the chance to order the CDs online (no more searching in stores!) and which gives Richard an additional commission on sales where people have gone to the CD Universe site through his site (http://www.richardshindell.com). So, visit his site, hit the link that takes you to CD Universe, and order any or all of his CDs! Lastly (before I give you the upcoming tour schedule), I want to remind everyone that there is another *great* Richard Shindell mailing list that you can join. The list is an interactive one where fans email back and forth about all kinds of Shindell news and it's a great place to talk about shows you've seen, discuss songs, etc. There's also a lot of cross-over from other lists and people are really cool about posting information they learned on another list to the Shindell list. To join, send an email message to majordomo@magenet.com with the following message in the body of your mail: subscribe richard-shindell your@email.address So, that's about it from here. As always, feel free to email me with any questions/problems you might have (info on how to unsubscribe from this list is at the bottom of the announcement).
