Well, at the very least, they wrote about me and my friend C.C. Chapman. This is pretty sweet, so please check it out. Here’s a clip from the article:

“In a field as competitive as entertainment, what matters most is how well you connect with your fans,” said Ebel, who moved to Boston from Nashville, Tenn., a year ago. “The technological tools we have give us the power to not just talk to but to listen to more people on a more meaningful level. If I stopped listening to my fans, they’d stop listening to me.”

A Little Dirt Never Hurts

Sunday, January 28th, 2007

High OrbitOkay, so normally I don’t cross-post stuff from my [tag]podcast[/tag] [tag]High Orbit[/tag], but this is too good not to share. I brought [tag]CC Chapman[/tag]’s sisters Cass and Kim over to the studio to record an episode, and they brought some great stuff with them.

Like, for example, audio tapes of CC when he was 5 years old. And some stories about [tag]childhood[/tag]. And some [tag]college radio[/tag] clips.

Head on over to hear the episode right here, and share it with a friend!

Those of you who got my latest email probably noticed that I forgot to mention what day I was playing at Sambuca. I know some of you noticed, because some of you emailed me. Thanks! Just, um, making sure you were paying attention.

If I ever do that again, just check the Calendar page for the final word on any show. Thanks!

Matthew in the TennesseanEven if it’s basically an article about how broke you are. I don’t care, I’m just happy the [tag]Tennesseean[/tag] has had my picture on the front page of both the Business section and the main News section twice now.

Here’s a choice quote:

Along with playing music gigs, looking for session work and marketing his CD Beer and Coffee, Ebel is trying to make inroads in the world of [tag]podcasting[/tag], or downloadable audio blogs.

Dude, she plugged the album for me. Thanks, Jeanne!
