New video launches today: a live ukulele rendition of Lonely For Me, from my upcoming record Darling, Darling!

This is the ukulele you're entered to win when you pre-order my record. I painted that lovely little bird myself! I'm almost at my pre-order goal of $1700, so if you'd like to score a chance to win the ukulele (and get your copy of the record for free, AND get your name in the liner notes), pre-order now while you still can!

And - my CD release show/party has officially been booked for August 14, 2010 at the Company House! I'll be updating you with the details over the next week. It's going to be an incredible event, so mark the date on your calendar now!

Ah, a Saturday in Halifax: the sky is grey, it keeps sporadically raining, and I might be late for work!

Just wanted to say I've been working on details for my CD RELEASE PARTY which is pretty much going to be the most fantastic incredible show/day/party of my life, and I threw some pretty awesome parties in highschool.

Also, new cute video arrives tomorrow! featuring ukulele!

Preorder my new album, "Darling Darling", and be entered to win this lovely new ukulele!

This little baby (made by Denver) comes with a carrying case, and features a sweet little birdie painted by me (and my signature on the back). When you win, you'll also get your pre-ordered copy of the CD for free!

Everyone who has already pre-ordered has been automatically entered. The winner will be announced when the money has been raised for manufacturing - if you wanna speed it up, maybe tell your friends to enter the competition too :)

Thank you to everyone who has been pre-ordering. We're already more than halfway there! Your encouragement is so incredible and inspiring. I can't wait to share this album with everyone.

I found a review yesterday from the show I played with Michou in May at the Pavilion. Check out what they said about me!:

"The final opening act was Crissi Cochrane, a prominent musician in the Halifax scene. Accompanied only with her acoustic guitar, she won over the small audience. Musically she was satisfying, her vocals are quite impressive, and her playing didn't disappoint. Besides this, she was also simply endearing. Her speech and personal anecdotes made it impossible to not like her, especially because of her modesty. She left the crowd wishing for more, in fact, it seemed to me that she got a bigger reaction from the audience than Michou did."

You can read the rest of the review here: http://futuretunez.com/2010/05/15/concert-review-michou-crissi-cochrane-glory-glory-man-united-quivers/

I'm going to be making another exciting announcement pretty soon, hopefully Monday! It involves bright colors and paint! Thank you to everyone who has been pre-ordering the album. If you haven't yet, get on that!
