Guest Admin Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 I am really excited to announce that both Joey Cape's "Bridge" and Two Cow Garage's "Speaking In Cursive" has charted on Billboard's Top New Artist Chart. Joey's debut solo album reached #62. Two Cow Garage charted at #143. This is the first time that one Suburban Home artist, let alone 2 has charted on the Billboard Charts. Thanks to everyone that picked up a copy from us, from a mom and pop retailer, or from a digital retail destination. I guess what makes this even more incredible is that we don't currently have our releases in any big box retailers or even national chains opting instead to work with Independent retailers and distributors. I will be making a bigger announcement, but today is the release date for Tim Barry's brilliant, new album, "Manchester". We will have a full album stream on Punknews this week so you can give it a listen. And besides ourselves and Tim Barry (on the Revival Tour), you can only get copies from Independent and digital retailers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Admin Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 also, do numbers come back and you get to know how much each album sold? Joey sold 880 first week (this is only at places that report to soundscan) and Two Cow Garage sold 510. I still can't believe it as most of our sales are in indie stores who don't report!

Guest Admin Posted November 5, 2008 Share Posted November 5, 2008 thanks guys. Those numbers might not seem huge, but we have never sold that many in the united states in 1 week. I am pretty blown away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
