Jennifer O'Connor Also, can't decide if the next record I make should be a quiet record or a rock record. I think I want to do one or the other instead of a mixture of the two like the last couple. Thoughts?

I like the bonus EP idea too. I was going to suggest you do one side quiet and one side loud. But the EP is better. The whole thing is very Paul Westerbergian. Can't wait to hear it!

At long last, all the sets from the opening ceremonies of the 2009 WPRB Membership Drive. Nine great performances. Thanks to all the bands for making this evening so awesome and thanks to Emily’s Cafe for all the delicious food. ...

Hello everyone-

Happy First Day of Fall!

I'm writing with a one major-ish announcement, and a couple of fall show and radio announcements.

First, I want to be the first to let you know that I have parted ways with Matador Records. It happened back in May, and while it wasn't a huge shock, it was of course a disappointmen...t. I was a big fan of the label before they signed me, was honored to be part of their world for a few years, and am very proud of the two records I released on their label. Change can be the best thing for a person and I think its going to be a good thing with this situation.

So, what's next? To be honest, I really have no idea. I'm taking my time writing new songs. Once I feel I am close to a finished record, I'll decide then if I want to put together a team to work with me to put the record out on Kiam (my label) or I may choose to partner up with a new label. It's all up for discussion, but for now I'm going to focus on making new music.

Second bit of news - I'll be playing a couple of solo shows this fall and doing Jon Solomon's WPRB fundraiser for the 3rd year in a row!

Oct 7, 2009 is when I will be on Jon's show. His show airs from 7-10pm on WPRB - you can listen on your FM dial or on the internet. I play covers and you pledge money to the station, that's how it works. If you wanna make a request in advance for a certain song, email Jon or me and we'll make it happen. But don't forget to pledge, that's your part of the equation. WPRB is a great station that has been supporting me for a long time, so help them out if you can!
Visit www.wprb.com for more info - or to pledge - or www.keepingscoreathome.com

I'm also playing 2 solo shows.

Wed Oct 14, New York, NY 92Y Tribeca
Doors 8:30, I'm opening for the Duluth, MN bluegrass band Trampled By Turtles

That's it for now. Be well everyone.

Love,
Jennifer

I am a fan of Matador Records too and was disappointed to hear of your separation. But sometimes you have to change roads to drive further.
