Lovespirals are featured on today’s Accident Hash. CC Chapman plays his favorite track from Long Way From Home, the album opener “Caught in the Groove.” He also announces our Second Life show on PodShow Island tomorrow night, which Accident Hash is co-presenting, despite the fact that CC is attending Podcamp Boston and won’t have good enough Internet connectivity to attend. 🙁
Photobooth Pix
Ryan and I in photobooth at a friend’s wedding last week. Fun idea for a party. But why is the lens focused at midriff level? 😛
Lovespirals Feature on PodShow Radio

Lovespirals are the featured artist on this week’s PodShow Radio. Host, Brent Bradley, presents 43 minutes of podsafe Lovespirals tunes selected from all 3 albums, including our brand new single, “This Truth.” Ryan and I also give a little background on why and how we recorded our cover of “Motherless Child.” It’s a very smooth production you won’t want to miss!
Lovespirals to Attend New Media Expo
Ryan and I will be attending the New Media Expo for our 2nd year. I suppose most people don’t think of Ryan as a podcaster, but he is my co-host on the Chillin’ with Lovespirals: Insights of an Indie Band podcast. CC and Karen have both commented on his great voice, which I find to be quite distinct. But even if you don’t recognize his voice, you can’t possibly miss the 6′ 5″ guy with really long hair and exotic baby face wandering around with me. Come up and say “hi” to us, we’re quite friendly and we will have copies of our brand new CD with us, which we’ll be happy to autograph and sell you for the low low Expo price of just $10.00. 😀 We’ll be at the ExtemePods & RumorGirls party tonight, so if you’re going — we’ll see ya there!
Oh! And I will be accepting a People’s Choice Podcast Award for my work with ShowGirls, on Friday at 4pm in Expo Hall B. Come meet the gals there!!!
