NEW MUSIC NOW AVAILABLE AT ITUNES!

Top 5 Latest New Stories:
1. I just secured a publishing deal with LoveCat Music out of New York. I am really excited to announce that LoveCat Music, Recording Label and Publishing Company, will be representing the four tracks on “The Loft Nine Project EP.” Basically, they will be shopping my music for placement in television, film, video games, or commercials. They have placed music in many shows and films, such as Desperate Housewives, The Sopranos, West Wing, Sex and The City, The OC, Training Day, How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days, and Alias.
2. My music is now available for digital download at stores such as Amazon, Napster, Rhapsody, and iTunes! Check out the itunes link above and see what you think. If you like what you hear, the four song EP is only $3.96 to download … so help a brother out.
3. American Idol… so everyone has been asking me about this. Well, on a whim a showed up at the Kansas City auditions for Season 8 of AI. I found out that it was going to be in KC literally a week before… so I said, “Fuck it, let’s do this.” (I don’t even watch the show … honestly). Well, I showed up, along with 15,000 other diluted dreamers and sang my version of Bob Marley’s “No Woman No Cry.” Well they loved it, and I made the first cut (130 or so of us out of 15,000). I didn’t really know that were so many damn rounds! Did you?
Anyway, I got the call back for round 2 and performed the same song again. I got even better reviews this time around, so they enthusiastically sent me to round 3 to sing for the executive producers of the show. This fat English guy did not feel the same way about my performance (I was too loud … really!?), so I politely said “thank you,” then proceeded to the exit where I had to do an interview in front of the TV camera about how my one and only dream to be an American Idol was ruined !!! (Sarcasm) Whatever, it was actually a fun experience, and there were a ton of talented singers that got axed before me, so I don’t feel too bad. I probably will not watch the upcoming season, however.
4. I recently performed a live acoustic session at a St. Louis radio station called iChannel. This station has been supporting independent music from around the world for around three years now. The DJ's and staff have been especially helpful in getting my music to fresh ears. Though the session has already been played, I am going to YouTube the footage soon. Thanks and goodluck to those at ichannel, for I know they are undergoing to some changes over there.
5. I have another show in my hometown of Lawrence, KS! My new band will be playing again at The Jazzhaus on May 22 @ 10 PM. We packed this place last month and I expect it to be another all night dance party!

LOFT NINE RECORDS LLC
Loft Nine Records is an independent recording label founded in 2007 by producer/songwriter, Scott Smith. The company's mission is simply to produce, market, and distribute musical recordings (as if there is anything simple about that).
The label has already established itself as a music
production and
recording entity and plans to extend its arms further into the world of
artist development as well as marketing and distribution.
Currently the label is not signing on new artists. Launching and promoting Scott Smith's new project is the primary goal of the label, however, Loft 9 Studios still offers a variety of services to the public. (Music production, equipment rental, etc.)

Loft Nine Records also has an established publishing arm in place, setup through ASCAP. Scottie Too Hottie Publishing plans on having a very active 2008 and will be submitting tracks from "The Loft Nine Project" for placement in various television shows, video games, and movies. The successful publishing company already has licensed works to MTV for use in their reality television broadcasting (and yes, they were used).
