    Greetings All,
    The French CD is out! We debuted Eternal Summer at the Orlando Convention Center INATS Trade show, in warm and sunny Florida! Us New Yorkers are all too happy to travel south in February!!

    The songs are mostly sung in French and the lyrics are inside the CD. The songs range from the Parisian cafe style - Le Train, the punky - Subterranean Girl, the French-pop like - Eternal Summer, the sultry - La Sorciere (The Sorcerer) to the ghostly -Farum, the raw emotion of Cyclone and many more inbetween!

    New Witch Magazine article...

    Tuesday, January 8, 2008, 11:39 AM CST [General]

    Greetings!

    Check out the winter issue of New Witch Magazine...we share the cover with Raven Digitalis, author of Gothcraft.  There is a 5-page feature article on us inside and a great review of the Catapult CD!

    The issue will be in stores in the next week or so (we were told second week of January).  You can find it at Borders and Books, Barnes and Nobles and most metaphysical shops. 

    We are finished with the recording of the French CD, "Eternal Summer," which will be going into production this week so we estimate the release date for about January 21st.  The drum CD is still in the works and it looks like the release date for that will be in the Spring/Summer.

    Winter issue 2008

    Bright blessings and gypsy wishes : )

    Thanks for the friendship!
    I think one of the things I have been enjoying the most about EF is meeting and discovering all the diverse talents out there, particularly new musicians.
    I really enjoyed the music on your website....the "Carnival" drum piece was great. It must be so much fun to see you perform live!
    I look forward to the Drum CD you mentioned in your blog....and congratulations on your good review in Witch magazine, too.
