Hello Lovelies !
I want to tell you something that I am so honored to be a part! I am going to be a part of my very first Book Soundtrack!!
I was recently approached by author Alex Austin (a Los Angeles-based novelist and playwright), to use my song "Write Me a Song" , as part of his book soundtrack. His book, titled "The Red Album of Asbury Park Remixed" is about 22-year-old musician Sam Nesbitt, who escaped a corrupt and dead-end life in "The Perfume Factory," and struggles to rid himself of his personal demons, past and present, as he pursues a rock 'n' roll dream against the backdrop of Asbury Park, NJ. "The Red Album of Asbury Park Remixed" is the sequel to Austin's critically acclaimed novel "The Perfume Factory", a coming-of-age story set on the Jersey Shore.
This is very special to me , being that I am a New Jersey native, and I have started my whole career playing coffeehouses, and bars in Asbury Park, and the Jersey Shore!
This book can be purchased on Amazon.com for $11.95!
I am SO excited to announce that THIS FRIDAY NIGHT , August 6, 2010, 10pm to Midnight , Alex will be interviewed on-air in the studio of WRSU-FM, to WRSU 88.7 FM , Rutgers University, by Geoffrey Pape. The show is called Overnight Sensations , and is also available at www.nj.com/wrsu .
They will be talking about the novel, "The Red Album of Asbury Park Remixed", and the upcoming podcast. The show will feature songs from the podcast, including “Write Me a Song". (he's using it with Chapter 2)
I hope you all listen in!!
Thank you all for your support!
Listen to "Write Me a Song" Now!

WOW Justina!! This is so awesome! Congratulations! You are truly talented and I can't wait to hear it.(Here's another coincidence...an ex BF of mine was a musician that grew up in Asbury Park! His oldest brother use to play basketball with the Boss when he was a kid. Funny huh?)
Thank you both of you! And Anna that is funny! I played my music in Asbury Park for many years, and I've yet to run into the Boss, lol
