Hey Everyone -

First … I’ve been having some trouble w/ the email notification of my blog … so, you may get two emails … or you may get an email for the LAST post … hopefully, I’ve got it fixed, though. If you missed the last post - please check it out - my orchestral release of Restless is finally online!

Just asking for 30 seconds of your time for your help … my song, “Restore My Heart” is stuck around ..28 on the IndieHeaven.Com Radio Charts.

1. Click on the Orange Radio Tower above, or this link
2. Scroll down and find “Restore My Heart” - it’s currently around ..28 … maybe better by the time you see this!?
3. Click the “Restore My Heart” title - it should start playing (piano intro).
4. Scroll back to the top of the charts, and you should see my name, pic, and “Restore My Heart” playing …. Mouse Over the 5-Stars to the right of the song title, under the “Show Support - Rate This Song” heading and vote!You can do this once per day … but I won’t post a bulletin/blog every day (I promise) .. maybe every other day! LOL!Thanks!

Hey Everyone!

Wow - It’s a great day for me today - not only is it my 36th Birthday (yeah!), but I received something I’ve been waiting for …. the orchestral version of “Restless”. You can hear the full version exclusively on my IndieHeaven.Com Artist Page this week!

“Restless” is a piano solo that I composed and recorded - it was purely spontaneous, and I woke up in the middle of the night with a sense of “divine inspiration”, went up to my studio, hit record, and just played. Since then, “Restless” has been a blessing to many people who have listened.

Now, I’m honored to announce that Emmy Award Winning Composer, Jace Vek, (MySpace.Com/jacevek | JaceVek.Com) has adapted/arranged “Restless” to full symphonic orchestra. You can hear the FULL LENGTH orchestrated version exclusively at my IndieHeaven.Com Artist Page this week!

Take a listen and leave me a comment on the IH page!

For the Kingdom,

Hey Everyone -

Happy Nov 1. I’d like to ask for your help!

I have an at IndieHeaven.Com where my music is featured, and every month, on the 1st of the month, they reset the homepage stats which feature “Most Visited Artist”, “Highest Rated Artist”, “Most Previewed Song”, etc.

I’d like to ask you to take a moment and help me get an exposure boost by doing the following - it will only take about 1-2 minutes of your time. Now - for those who are really ambitious - you can do this EVERY DAY … but even if you just do it once, it would be a huge help … please consider helping me:

1. Visit my Artist Page at http://www.indieheaven.com/artists/fredmckinnon
2. Listen to some music (I recommend the instrumental, “Restless”, which will soothe any day’s frustrations!
3. At the bottom of the page, fill out the Comment Form and give me a “rating”. This helps me in the “Highest Rated Artist” stats. Also, you can opt-in or opt-out of receiving my “fan newsletter” or IndieHeavens’ emails.
4. Then, visit their “Radio Station”page and vote for my song “Restore My Heart”… you simply scroll down and find the song (Currently, it’s around #30 - maybe higher by the time you read this!) and click on it - it should start playing. You SCROLL BACK UP to the #1 song, and just above, under “Now Playing” you should see my picture and the song “Restore My Heart”. To the right, mouseover the 5-stars and rate the song.

I realize this is die-hard self promotion, and part of me hates that … but the other part of me wants to be a good “steward” of the gift and talents given me, and since this website gets TONS OF HITS and MARKETING EXPOSURE, I’d like to be represented well there.

For those who read this far - I’m really grateful that you took the time - and if you can follow those 4 action steps above, I’d be very blessed!

Sincerely,
Fred McKinnon
