2. FREE RACHAEL SAGE REMIX OFFER EXTENDED!

Rachael Sage VertigoAs some of you know, when pre-orders for Rachael's new album CHANDELIER were shipped by the good folks at BuySwag, we had them include a special limited-edition EP of VERTIGO, as remixed by Lior Magal. We've had such a strong response to the remix that we've decided to extend this offer for yet another month. So anyone who orders directly before August will also receive this remix, "while supplies last" (Yes, we've always wanted to say that). Don't delay!


3. MPRESS SIGNS WITH NOVA/PINNACLE & UK RELEASE DATE ANNOUNCED FOR "CHANDELIER"

NOVA DistributionMPress Records has signed a distribution deal with Nova, via Pinnacle...which basically means that for the very first time, Rachael's albums are officially being distributed in the UK beginning August 4th! We're incredibly excited about this, and are actively seeking UK Street Teamers to help spread the word about the record over there. We're also currently accepting inquiries regarding our overseas MPress Records Label Rep program. For more information, contact labelrep@mpressrecords.com.


4. RACHAEL INTERVIEWS "SUPER BUDDHA" PRODUCER BARB MORRISON
