[Steve I ] ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Date: Mon, 19 Apr 1999 23:31:01 -0400 From: Steve I Subject: Dead Daisy Records signs a new artist! And the new Dead Daisy artist is... Emm Gryner! That's right folks, Emm and Mercury have finally parted ways... However Emm doesn't think it's a bad thing and we shouldn't either. Emm is actually pretty happy about it, she said they're a completely different label than the one she started working with, mostly due to staff changes and so on resulting from the takeover by Universal, and I imagine it must be a relief for her to finally have some closure on this whole issue. We fans will reap some immediate benefits from this. First of all, as others have mentioned already, Emm has already recorded a new album, called _Science Fair_. It's completely a DIY album, produced, recorded and performed by Emm (isn't she amazing???) except for a little help from her friends: Kevin Fox on three songs, Stephen McGrath on one, etc. Current projected release date is somewhere around the late May or early June, but Emm's not sure yet. Being back on her own label now, she can put this album out *way* sooner than she could have under Mercury (it would have been probably another year before it came out then). In any case Emm is really excited about it (and so am I!). If you're on Emm's snail mailing list, you'll be getting something in the mail soon, a special limited time offer to get her album before its official release... fans are going to get first dibs on the album! If you're not on Emm's snail mail list yet... what on earth are you waiting for? http://webhome.idirect.com/~nsounds/emm/emminfosnail.htm And secondly... brace yourselves... I know a lot of you have been really wanting to get your hands on a copy of her amazing first indie album, _Original Leap Year_. Well, that is going to be reissued this week! Keep watching here or on Emm's website at Northern Sounds for details. http://webhome.idirect.com/~nsounds/emm/ Steve (getting excited to hear the new album!) ------------------------------ End of headline-girl-digest V2 #82 **********************************
