We’re sorry to announce that we’ve decided to cancel the Tampa Bay date of our Storytellers tour, when we scheduled the date we forgot about Father’s day, which we believe has contributed to a lack of ticket sales.
Tickets are still available for the Orlando show on Friday, June 18th.
I’m very excited to announce that I’m going to be releasing a solo EP on July 20, 2010. It’s different from anything I’ve ever done with My Favorite Highway, but it’s still what you have come to expect from me as a songwriter. I don’t usually write love songs, but all of the songs on this record are love songs. It’s all based on acoustic guitar, and the lyrics are very honest and exposed. These are probably some of the most poetic and beautiful songs I’ve ever written. Vocally, it’s much more soulful than anything else I’ve ever done before. The idea was that I wanted to write a record that wasn’t based on piano because I usually write all of my songs on piano, so I made a rule that I could only write these songs on acoustic guitar. There aren’t any drums on the EP, instead I used other creative elements to give the songs rhythm and movement. It’s a very creative record and I am very, very proud of it.
The EP is now available for pre-order in my online store –
http://iamdavidcook.storenvy.com. The official release date is July 20, 2010, which is when the EP will be up on iTunes and readily available for physical sale. However, the first 500 people to pre-order the EP will receive an exclusive digital download of the record on July 1, 2010, three weeks prior to the official release date. The first 300 people to pre-order the EP will also receive a signed poster. I am going to personalize and sign every pre-ordered EP before it ships. (I will be accepting international orders from all countries, including Brazil).
