05-22-2007 | Ahhhh, publishing is fun :)
We have been busy!!!
Our new Cd 'Love Luck & Lust' is still selling like hotcakes and you
can get your own at any one of our shows or at www.itunes.com or
www.cdbaby.com . You can pick up one of our other discs too while
your at it ;)
A bunch of our new tunes have been featured in many MTV and VH1 shows
recently with more to come. Honestly sometimes we hear about them after
they occur so if you are watching your favorite TV show 'Exposed', 'My Super Sweet
16' or 'Parental Control' or whatever, and you hear us, send us an email
and let us know!!!
Our new tunes have also been getting a lot of hits on the radio and
especially in the retail industry so if you think you hear an MP song in
the mall...you probably do....Scream it out!
After our car wreck we have been trying to take it easy on the
traveling but we will soon be venturing out a little again so keep your
eyes peeled.
Oh yeah, we have been writing alot!!! Ofcourse we have new Mckinley Place songs
being churned out but Bryan and Tyler have also been busy with a lot of
other music you should check out....they finished writing pop singer
Alyssa Atherton's new disc , www.alyssaatherton.com ,and are finishing a
new indie dance rock project for In The Groove with a bunch of songs. The new band's
name is ReadyGoes and you can keep checking www.myspace.com/readygoes
for all the new tunes and beautiful new pictures of your boys!
Keep up on the MP!!!
Love & Luck, Shack
