For his monthly newsletter Barry selects an artist from the CD Baby catalogue as his "Artist Of The Month". If you have not signed up yet for his newsletter we'd advise you to do so as each month one lucky person can win a signed copy of the CD in question. We've decided to add direct link buttons to all the albums picked so far (see below). You can listen to the album by clicking the "buy the CD" button and of course you can still buy the album if you like what you hear. We're sure the artists in question will appreciate the support.
Extra note: signing up for the newsletter also gives you access to bonus music from Barry [studio outtakes, live material, radio interviews, etc.] not available anywhere else. See box to your right - join the mailing list.
