NoiseTrade Should Launch Tomorrow

… or so Derek said at the show last night.

You should enjoy it. :)

Derek With Caedmon’s

  1. Hey, want to hear what Derek’s solo sets with Caedmon’s sounded like on this tour? We’ve got a recording from the Dyersburg show for you to check out.
  2. Many folks have asked us, “Is this the last hurrah of Derek with Caedmon’s Call?” I think the best answer for that is, “We don’t know, but I don’t think they know, either.” All I know is that they looked like they were having a heck of a lot of fun playing music together, and we all know that Caedmon’s just doesn’t play that many shows anymore. If you ask me to put a prediction down in print and sign my name to it, I’d bet on both another record and another full tour. As to whether Derek will play with the band any more this year, who knows? When we know, though, we’ll tell ya. Cool? Cool.

Go forth and pre-order.

Final Ampersand EP Cover Art

The Ampersand EP Cover Art Some of y’all complained about the size of the cover art we had for The Ampersand EP, and well … now we’ve got the final deal. Click on the image above to see the full-size image we’ve got. This should be big enough for you to see, although it’s a JPG and has compression artifacts and all that. We’re sure that the final product will look even slicker in print, but also that the tired/grainy look is purposeful—I mean, Rhodes is still very new in the WebbCracken family, and these folks … well, they’re probably not sleepin’ much, eh? ;)

Rumor has it that the disc is now mastered…

Announcing The Ampersand EP

Coming to a CD player near you… The Ampersand EP

It looks like pre-orders will be taken starting on Valentine’s Day. The physical record will come out in March or April. You will, however, get the full digital download as soon as you pre-order. Derek and Sandra will be out playing shows together to promote once the pre-order starts. Derek told me that they consider Valentine’s Day to be the actual release date for the EP

We here at dw.net are very excited for this release and I, for one, am very glad Watch Your Mouth has found a home and am excited to see what Sandra can add to it! Stay tuned to dw.net for more updates!

Derek and Mike

Derek and Mike did a two-part interview. I’ll copy from the email he sent me to describe it, because I’m lazy:

There are 3 parts to this interview (only 2 are up). The first part is general info (noisetrade, new albums…etc) while the other two have to do with questions that were submitted by .com board users. I have no problem with folks listening to those but they may not be as interesting to them. You can download them and upload elsewhere if you prefer, it’s whatever you want. At 32 minutes the first part is a bit long but there is a lot of good info in there. I hope this is OK.

And because it’s funny … Can You Spot Derek Webb? It’s “Where’s Waldo?” but with a short, bald man.

The Ringing Blog…

The folks at Dryve Management have posted a video blog made during the current “Ringing Bell Tour”. There are a few dates left so be sure you check it out if you can. So here it is… The Ringing Blog Pt. 1
