Well my friends, the new record released last week and thanks to you all, it stayed strong at #1 on iTunes for singer/songwriter for a few days straight! 

And Miss Marie Claire gave it a little shout in their November mag stating, "Go Easy Little Doves is ethereal chamber music paired with wood-nymph vocals. A need-to-download."

*disclaimer*
Most of this blog will basically entail many thanks to various people and friends... :)

...So, I was driving through the great American midwest last week to meet up with Owl City for our tour that got started in Iowa when I got a delightful little text from a friend who was attending the Nashville Music Awards. To my surpriseand excitement, they awarded me Next Big Nashville Best Emerging Artist Award. I thank you for that! Most sincerely.

And in closing, I just booked a show at the Belcourt Theater to host an official release show for the new record. If you're in or near the nashville area please come celebrate with me November 19. I will have some lap steel, classical guitars, harp, a full string section (complete with a few members from the city's symphony orchestra), and lots o' NEW songs! Should be a special evening.

I currently bid you farewell from Boise, Idaho!

So... there has been much, much happening. 
This has been quite a unique summer in many ways.

I am learning how to be a wife and loving every day.

I also finished a new record that I love so dearly I cannot wait to share it with you.
This is something very fresh and special. It's laced with all sorts of q&a, pensiveness, elasticity, and romance.

As of today, there are 4 new tunes from the album available for streaming as well as new artwork, photos, and TONS of tour dates on the horizon -- Denison Witmer in September and Owl City // The Scene Aesthetic in October. 

I'm digitally releasing the collection of music Oct. 6, 2009.
Physical copies will be available Nov. 3, 2009. BUT, I will have advanced copies on the Owl City tour. So come to shows!

And, my website is being freshly updated with new graphics, photos, and info. So be sure to check back soon for that.
 
Hope you are well, my friends.

As always, 
L O V E

Good afternoon dear friends.

I want to invite you out to Cornerstone this year for some fun and festivity!

What a good ol' time this is going to be!

I'm playing two sets while I'm there -- July 3 and July 4.
There will be a full band with me as well as stacks of my new vinyl. Mmmm, yes!
Hope to meet and see new and old friends..

I also posted some dates friday to begin early promotion for a tour taking place in the fall with Owl City and The Scene Aesthetic. They are all west coast dates which is exciting news! This means lots and lots of new cities, new clubs, and new faces.

Let the friendships commence!

Love to you all.
Brooke

p.s. I AM FINISHING MY NEW RECORD THIS SUMMER!
GET READY FOR FRESH THINGS!

Hello everyone!!

Ahhhh..... YES, my merch store is officially live!! We had some very unexpected techy glitches with it that just took a long time to get worked out, so I just want to thank everyone that's emailed me for all the patience with the store.
I'm also really, really excited about Heal for the Honey being available on vinyl!!! It's not physically here yet, but it will be arriving in a couple of weeks. I didn't want to wait though to put it up on the store so it's up there and available for pre-order. All vinyl pre-orders include a copy of Heal for the Honey on CD.

I leave for the Copeland / This Providence / Paper Route tour this week and hope to see everyone out at the shows!! Three amazing bands -- it's going to be a ton of fun! See ya out there!!

Much love,
Brooke

So, I've missed you... seriously, it's been a few months since I've been on the road playing shows and seeing your faces and getting to chat and hang afterwards... That needs to happen ASAP!

Therefore, I am extending an invitation to each and every one of you sweet people to come out and visit starting April 2 in Athens, GA. I am supporting Copeland on a series of shows across the country spanning the month of April. I am so very excited about this tour! My good friends, Paper Route will also be joining us. As well as the oh-so talented This Providence.

!!!!!!!!!!! ---> = enthusiasm

I also wanna thank you for all of the kind messages and emails I received regarding the Heal for the Honey video release on myspace music last week. I'm thrilled you enjoyed it! If you missed the "premier," be sure to check out my website (www.brookewaggoner.com) for it's official release on March 3 - TODAY!

L O V E,
Brooke

p.s. I can't wait for SPRING!

Hi! Sooooo....., it's been a little while since I've checked in with all of you and reported on things... I apologize. There's always a ton of excuses about being really busy and life being crazy, so I'm not even gonna go there.... ha!

Anywho, I'm writing to tell you that I made a new music video for the song "Heal for the Honey." Myspace has offered to feature the release starting tomorrow, February 13, through the 16th.
You can go to www.myspacemusic.com. I'm excited!

And, in the spirit of promoting things and releasing things and music things, I'm going to pack up, pick up, and head back out on the open road. All of April is dedicated to seeing each and everyone of you! Dates tba.

If you're in or near the Austin area during March, I'll see you at SXSW as well!

Much love my friends,
Brooke

Good afternoon.

The rain has cleared away and today = perfect!
It's been a crazy month and boy does it feel good to be home for a bit..

I had an amazing tour, though! And thank you to all who came out to the shows. It was incredible.

Did a bit of recording in Orlando, spent Halloween in Alabama, saw old friends in Louisiana, made new friends in Florida, enjoyed Chapel Hill, NC (as always), ate mind-blowing pizza in Brooklyn, froze in Boston, got sick in Pittsburg, loooved the Chicago crowd, caught in a snowstorm in Michigan (thank you Hope students for being amazing), and loved every moment of it!

Before Thanksgiving gets here and everyone is hanging with fam and pigging out, I wanted to introduce you to someone:

Meet, website.
He's friendly and colorful and has lots of things to talk about. Please give him a hi-five and congratulate him on having "approachable" graphics (he can be shy sometimes...)

Much love,
Brooke

p.s. Hope you enjoy the new video! Happy Thanksgiving.
