Nice Merch deals, upcoming shows, August Contest Drawing, Yahoo Group

Hi everyone,

Just filling you in on a couple things:

First, we have some pretty good merch deals going on now. The CDBaby Summer Sale is extended until LABOR DAY so if you haven't taken advantage yet now is the time to do so before the album goes back to it's regular retail price on CDBaby.

Visit my page on CDBaby at http://ping.fm/Cysho

Also, we're getting into the spirit of Halloween by putting up 3 of my personally signed 8x11s with a Halloween season theme up on ebay until November 1 (or while supplies last) for only $5.00 (which is pretty much the cost of my packaging and shipping in the US). You can also bid on the photos and the bid starts out at $1.00 . A little Halloween treat for you guys:)

Visit the ebay page for the photos at
http://ping.fm/se25U

And speaking of Halloween, as some of you know, we have a new Halloween show/party we are playing at on Oct 30 in Darlington, PA at Big Beaver Firehall. As I mentioned, there will be a few items including a signed copy of my album and a sigend 8x11 being auctioned off for a pediatric cancer benefit. But we decided to take things up a notch be putting an entire Halloween Treat bag up for the auction. Items in the treat bag will include a signed copy of POET, the 3 mentioned Halloween themed 8x11s signed, an assortment of Halloween candles, a copy of the "Heart Song" demo (a song to be on my forthcoming second album), AND a few of my James Cheetham Zombie Photo Cookies. Last year I was one of the winners of Dark Fiction writer James Cheetham's Zombie Photo Cookie Model Search and I now have my own Zombie Cookie:) The cookie has been advertised in various publications in Canada and recently resurfaced in the most recent issue of Girls and Corpses Magazine. Some of the cookies will be in the treat bag (and we'll also have the cookies available as treats at all our Halloween shows). While you are at it, check out my Zombie Cookie at

Also we have some upcoming shows in August and September before our Halloween shows:

Indie Gathering Recap

Hi everyone,

I know I'm getting to my updates a little late this month. The last couple weeks have been crazy (I STILL need to send out the snail mail version of my monthly newsletter) between the Jay Rossi Project TV event and the Indie Gathering/Star Awards both in the Cleveland, OH area. Now we are gearing up for our Sadie Rene's show in Akron/North Canton, OH next Sunday but we are having a blast nonetheless:)

The Indie Gathering was an amazing time and we met some truly awesome people. Some of these meetings resulted in some fun and interesting collaborations and projects in the near future. Can't say too much yet until everything is worked out and "dotted lines are signed" but of course we'll keep you posted:) It was an honor to also accept the Star Award for the music video for our adaptation of "Scarborough Fair" off of my album POET as I was not only in the video as the musical artist and actress, but also co-directing, scene writing, costumes, and props. Much credit also goes to Jason English, Zane Hersherberger, Sabrina, Ginger, Adam Hersherberger, and Tori & Lexi Hersherberger for all their amazing work. Also props to Rowen Poole and Persephone's Dream for allowing us use of their backdrops, lights, and some costume pieces and props. Couldn't have done it without all of you:) We (Jason and I) were also interviewed on The Sunday Hangover Radio show. Sunday Hangover Show is part of the internet radio station, Morning Show Central based out of Cleveland, OH. There is video of the interview on my YouTube Channel:

http://ping.fm/VfzTp

You can also hear/see the interview (probably a much better audio version of it plus Jason's interview) by visiting http://ping.fm/AQHsJ and clicking on the show for The Indie Gathering or August 8, 2010. While you're at it, check out Morning Show Central: http://ping.fm/gIO5e and the show Uncensored Net Noize as songs from POET will soon be getting played on that show:) A big thank you to Ray, everyone at the Indie Gathering, and the fine gentlemen at Morning Show Central!

To be continued...

2010 Concerts and Appearances: The Indie Gathering and Star Awards

This set of photos was taken at the 2010 Indie Gathering and Star Awards that took place at the Holiday Inn Select in Westlake, OH. This year, our music video for the adaptation of "Scarborough Fair" off of POET won first place at the Indie Gathering's Star Awards in the Open Music Video Category. It was and honor since not only was I the singer/actress in the video but I also co-directed, wrote the scenes, did the costumes and props. Jason also played a major part in the making of the music video as did Sabrina with makeup, Zane Hersherberger as cinematographer and DP, Adam Hersherberger, Ginger, and Tori and Lexie Hersherberger:) In the photos Jason "snorts cocaine", Jason flaunts our award, and I do a little victory pose as we prepare to leave that Sunday.

2010 Concert and Apprearances Photos: Live on Paranexus Unvierse Radio at Farnam Manor in Richfield, OH

This past spring, we were brought to Farnam Manor in Richfield, OH for an excavation. Jason and I were brought in to actually use my songs "Lost Little Girl" and "Lullabye" as part of the excavation particularly for the spirit of a little girl, Emily Farnam (I sung both songs live and acapella. There is video footage on my YouTube Channel: http://www.youtube.com/TiffanyApan ). The excavation was live on ParaNexus Radio and John Sabol, the rest of the paranormal investigation team and myself were interviewed too. Below are photos of Farnam Manor and Jason with John Sabol.

Songs "Warrior" and "Whispers" to be on the soundtrack for the film "The Girl". Check out the film! http://ping.fm/Okaow
