Yes, this is, of course, the "secret project" we've been referring to on the OddBlog, sometimes not-so-subtly, all this time. We're excited today to reveal it to you, in all its glory.

To order the CD, go to GIA directly. We'll have some copies in our possession, mostly when we have an appearance coming up, but best to get the CD straight from them, most of the time. Walk Away Different should be ready by October sometime, if not earlier!

We've redone several pages at our main site, of course, to reflect this big news: the Home Page, the Lyric and Audio Page, and our Merchandise Page. We've also created a new Introduction Page and a new keytarsuperstar.com page.

When we self-produced and released our CD "Let Us Go, Rejoicing" last fall, we had no idea that within a year, we'd have another professionally done CD to add to our credits. Many of the songs on this new CD can be found on "Let Us Go" or "Little Steps" or "For All Time" — but these have all been redone with very cool arrangements, performed by outstanding musicians including some nice singing by Sarah Bauer, and wonderfully produced by new Oddwalk friend Gary Daigle. Additionally, there are four songs on the disc that have never been recorded! All of the songs on Walk Away Different will be published by GIA over the coming months as well. Thanks to Gary and to GIA folks Alec Harris, Michael Cymbala and Laura Dankler for their support and encouragement as well!

Oddwalk friend Wendy Sturgeon (who helped us with "For All Time" and "Little Steps") helped us with the awesome graphic design — here are more examples of her work:

There is some other GIA-type news we're optimistic about too, but shouldn't tell you all about it just yet... just keep checking back here for updates — this is an exciting time for Oddwalk and our family and friends!

We hope you enjoy Walk Away Different! And we hope to see you all very soon.
