Hey friends,
It’s 1:45 AM and since I am the quintessential insomniac, I decided that there’s no better time then the present. I am going to try my best, keep my word and keep this weekly blog going. I’m pretty impressed that it’s been 3 weeks in a row. Sad that 3 consecutive weeks impresses me. Anyway, I think I love late nights cause it’s quiet (well as quiet as LA can be) and peaceful.
One more week until I head back on the road for the radio tour. The last one was so great, hopefully this one will be just as good!
This week I’m looking at treatments for the Big For Me music video (so cool!). I want to do something really unusual and creative. I’m not feeling the typical “pretty girl in the club video” although pretty girls in the club, I ain’t mad atcha! 
I just want a video with a “how’d they do that?” vibe.
You may have heard that my tour is in the works! Awww yeah! I’m so excited to be hitting the road again!! You may have noticed the “demand it” widget on my myspace and website. Be sure to add your city (and tell your friends). That just might sway what cities I’ll be playing!!
CLICK HERE TO DEMAND ME 
I can’t wait to see you soon! Send me a comment, you all are so great about that and it always makes my day!
Love ,

Hey friends,
This last week has been a big prep week for the Jd Webb crew. I’ve been listening to the final mixes and had the grueling task of figuring out which songs won’t make the CD. Not to worry though, I’m sure we’ll make them available to the street team crew (hint, hint to those of you not on the street team).
Big For Me has officially hit radio on west coast radio stations and will be hitting the rest of the country soon. Also, a new song that many of you might not have heard yet called Sky’s The Limit has also has hit radio. Two singles at once! Crazy right??!!
We’ll be putting that single up on Itunes soon as well.
We’re also looking at treatments for the Big For Me video that we’ll be shooting soon. We have something really cool and artistic in the works!
Lastly, we’ve started putting the wheels in motion for the US tour. And, it may include one of my favorite artists! So cool, more info on that soon.
Thanks to everyone who has picked up Big For Me on Itunes! Also a great big mahalo to everyone who spread the word to their friends!! I have no doubt that I have the best fans in the world, I honestly could not do this without you all! I love you guys!!

Hey friends,
This has been an amazing whirlwind week. We started the radio tour and it’s been a lot of late nights and EARLY mornings, but I’m having a blast! Living the dream!!! We started in San Jose then Seattle, Portland, Salt Lake City (hope you checked my mypod station take over!) and finally San Francisco. A city a day! Most mornings I’ve been up by 4:30 and by the time we’ve played the station, had meetings and whatever else, I’m back to my hotel by 12:30 am or so. And then it starts all over again the following day. So not a lot of sleep! (oh the glamorous life of a rockstar!)
I’ve had a killer time at the stations, we’ve gotten great responses! The music biz is in a place like never before. Even 5 years ago our little indie (engine that could) label would not have been able to compete today. We’ve been playing in top 20 radio markets and getting Big For Me added! Our team has been doing cartwheels! It’s still not easy and you have NO IDEA how much you guys help! Calling and requesting Big For Me at your favorite station means everything. If it literally takes us going to every station, playing live and getting to know the peeps at the station, that’s what we’ll do!
I go in to the radio stations and I feel like that guy on the cell phone commercial where he looks up and has all those people with him. That’s how I feel about you guys. We’ve got an army and together, we can do it!
Also, the difference that it makes when you download the single on iTunes (or anywhere else it’s available) is immeasurable, the radio stations really look at that!
I’m listening to the final mixes, and looking at the final pics for the CD this weekend. We’ll be announcing the release date very soon! We’ll also be announcing a contest that will blow your minds!
As always, your comments and messages mean so much. Also, thanks for putting the music up on your personal sites and telling your friends.
I wish you guys could all be with me on these trips so you could see first hand how exciting it is! I hope to see you in a city near you very soon!!

Friends,
So my plan for blogging every week…well let’s be honest…I’ve sucked at it. BUT, that’s about to change. (No, for real this time) I’ve been SO busy finishing my new CD and I’m finally finished! I’m really proud of it and I can’t wait for you guys to hear it!
So much has happened recently. Let me get you up to speed. I’ve been in New York shooting the CD cover with Andrew Matusik. He’s amazing, he’s probably best known for high fashion spreads. His pictures are in magazines everywhere. He’s so creative so it was a really great shoot. Plus, I love New York! It was a whirlwind trip, but just being there is inspiring.
My single “Big For Me” just hit radio and now I start the radio tour. So it’s like this. New York today, then back to LA for the night and then leave (at the crack I might add) for our first stop, San Jose, CA. I’ll be hitting a bunch of cities so be sure to call your favorite radio station and request it.
After the radio tour we’re looking at a major tour (with some exciting artists I can’t wait to tell you about). Then touring Asia, then Europe, then more dates in the States. So chances are, I’ll be coming to a city near you soon!
I just want to say thanks again for all of your amazing comments and messages. I have the best fans in the world! I feel like the word “fan” doesn’t do you all justice, you’re more like friends. Seriously, thanks for all the love. Btw, if you haven’t downloaded my single “Big For Me” on itunes, stop reading this, click on Itunes, search Jd Webb, click on Big For Me, then click “buy”. There you go, wasn’t that easy? If you already have then buy another for a friend!
As you know we’ve pushed back the CD release date a couple of times, but you know, it’s gotta be right. I’ll be announcing the new release date soon so keep your eyes peeled!
By the way did you see the pics of my huge billboard in Times Square? I’ll post it here at the bottom just in case you missed it. Crazy right???
