Hi Everyone,
First off, welcome to the new year.
2007 was great, but 2008 is going to be ten thousand times better, if you ask me.
So this is it...
I've been holding in some of what I'm about to share for months, some for days, some for hours...
and there's no doubt about it, some of what I'm about to tell you all is literally the biggest stuff that's ever happened with Backseat Goodbye.
I've worked my ass off for the last few years, and it's gotten me here, to what will be the next level, and now it's time to work even harder.
Let me warn you, this isn't just a little bit of info I'm about to share...
it's a list of things...
and this isn't even all of the big news I have, this is just the bulk of it,
I figure I can save some other news for later ;)
So without further ado...
(this is where you should imagine a lovely little drumroll in your head...)
....wait, I need to take a deep breath, myself....
Okay, here it goes.
1. I have officially signed a worldwide distribution contract with The Militia Group (an amazing Independent label that's the home of some bands you might know: Brandston, Copeland, & Lovedrug... to name a select few) And let me point out, that this is just a distribution contract, so I'm NOT signed to The Militia Group, they will just be distributing my music to retail and online stores worldwide.
2. That brings me to this....
2008 marks the beginning of my own record label I am starting, called "The Winners Club", in which I'll be using to release my upcoming albums through. As of now Backseat Goodbye will be the only artist on the label, BUT later in 2008 I do plan to begin the process of adding other bands to the label. (So please know that I will still have FULL control of my music and that you're not losing me to some major label or anything ;)
3. With that said, I'm glad to say, that in 2008 I will be releasing TWO albums. One will be coming this Spring, and it will be a compilation of the best/most popular songs from all of my former EP releases (because all of my former cds have only been available online, and this will give them a chance to be in actual retail stores worldwide!)... plus the album will have previously unreleased tracks, a new demo, and new versions of a couple of quite rare songs too. I'll be giving you more info on this album quite soon, so look out for it!
4. And yes, I did say that this Spring that album I just mentioned will be available in actual large retail stores in select US cities... and if it sells well then it will be released worldwide very very soon after.
5. Now, I mentioned I'd be releasing TWO albums above. The second album I'll be releasing is going to be my debut full-length album, featuring all new songs, and it will be coming out Summer 2008! This full-length album will be available online and in-stores worldwide, and I can guarantee you that it WILL be the best work I've ever released... this album has songs I've been working on for months and years, just waiting for the right time to release them, and that time will come this summer. (More news to come on this album soon as well)
6. TOUR! After the release of each of the albums I will be touring, non-stop, all over the United States, and it's looking like Canada, Japan, and the UK too. I will have more info on that as soon as possible too.... just know that I can't wait to get on tour again to play these new songs (and of course the old ones) for you all.
7. If you pick up the February '08 Issue of Alternative Press Magazine (pictured below) you'll find me featured in the AP&R Section on page 34. (The issue hits stores January 8th!)
8. My most recent EP, "Good Morning, Sunshine", was just selected as one of the Top Ten Albums of 2007 by Los Angeles' Highware Daze Magazine, and will be featured in the January Issue.
So there you have it, I hope you're all as excited as I am and ready to do this with me.
Also, to let you know...
On the 3rd of this month I'll be driving out to Encinitas, CA where I'll be building a brand new little studio where I'll be recording my debut full-length I mentioned above. I'll be recording all the way through the end of February, and after I've wrapped the album up it will be time for everything else to start happening. (Plus, I've got some exciting ways in which I'll be sharing how the recording process is going, and I'll give you more info on that soon)
Also,
You probably noticed, or maybe you didn't, that I said I'll be blogging every single day of this year to give you all the most fucking real inside look of what I'm doing, what's going on, my boring life, how the music industry really works, and much much much more....
and the truth is that I WILL be blogging every single day, BUT what I'm going to do, so you don't have to come hear every day and read (because that's no fun, there's no waiting period to make you want to read it or anything)...
so I'm going to post one blog a week, but that blog is going to be one big blog that will have every day of the previous week in it...
so it's sort of like how you wait for one day of the week to watch a certain new episode of a tv show, except instead of tv this is a blog... duh ;)
So, just so you know, EVERY Tuesday I'll post the new blog at 4pm (CST).... (and of course somtimes I might change the time a little if I'm busy, BUT I can promise that there will be a nice new lovely big blog here with photos, videos, inside jokes, lame movie quotes, and of course info of how life, BG, recording, touring and everything's going at some point of the day on EVERY Tuesday of 2008....
and it will exclusively be RIGHT HERE on this blog site....
so go ahead and bookmark this blog, or save the link or something, because I can promise these blogs won't be boring as hell ;)
AND one really important thing...
LEAVE COMMENTS ON THESE BLOGS I'LL BE POSTING!
I WANT to know what you have to say, or what you think about what's happening.
I'll be reading every last comment every week...
and when I post new blogs if I see comments that caught my eye I'll point them out and respond to them in the new blogs.
So if you stop by and read these, then let me know!
I want to know I'm not writing to no one....
Like I've always said, I don't ever want to be singing alone, I always want every last one of you singing along with me.
That's one big reason why I'm going to be doing these blogs, because I really want you to know that I DO give a damn about what you think....
because I don't feel like there's anything in music today where people can actually feel like they're a part of it...
so I want to make sure you're a part of this exciting year with me, all the way through the ups & downs, parties, shows, songs, tears, laughs and whatever comes my way.
So that's it for this week.
Next week (on Tuesday @ 4pm) I'll be posting the next new blog,
and it will be the first with the format I mentioned above....
it will basically be a recap of January 1st through the 7th (with LOTS of photos) of my journey from TN to CA...
along with my first few days of settling in to where I'll be staying in Encinitas...
as well as the beginning of the recording plans for my debut full-length.
So, like I said, leave comments (all you have to do is click the little link "Comments" word below today's blog and you don't even have to sign up for anything to leave a comment...
just enter a name if you want and leave a comment, and BAM, you're done.
But yeah, feel free to let me know if you're as excited as I am!
2008 is going to be an AMAZING year!
I hope you all had a wonderful new years eve,...
and if 2007 wasn't that great for you, don't worry, I have a feeling this year is going to be good to all of us....
and if it doesn't want to be, then let's make it!
Love to you all...
and if you have a hangover, drink lots of water ;)
- Chad
ps - If you have friends that like my music, PLEASE tell them to check out this blog or be sure to tell them the news! :)

there are rough patches in some songs that I'm glad you'll be working out now that you're 'recording'.
i totally love the lyrics, you have an AMAZZZZZZZING way with words, but vocals could use touch ups in SOME places.
I'm excited for you!
CHAD.

I LOVE that attitude.
in my opinion, that's one of the biggest things that draws me to musicians I like-- how much they interact with fans/friends.
never lose that.
good luck with everything you've got coming up! =]
<333
hahaha is it okay if i stalk you to encinitas?
jk. but not really =P
congratulations on living the dream.
i think this is a really amazing thing you're doing. bringing the music back to the fans. getting us involved. that's what its all about man
major kudos *thumbs up*
this is gonna be a good year for you. can't wait to watch it all unfold
ive known you were signed for a few months but i didnt know the rest. im pumped!
and i think this blog thing will only last a couple months, proove me wrong!
i'm so excited for you! that's amazing, this year is going to rule.
i can already tell :]
congratulations!
im so excited chad!
probably not as excited as you, but maybe very close.
and im so excited that youre making sure youre in charge of your music.
i cannot wait for the new albums.
i cannot wait to see what happens with you being able to have more people listen.
i cannot wait to see you live again.
i just cannot wait! well, i can, i'll just be very excited :)
CHAD! OH MY GOD.
that's so much bigger than i expected, and i expected some pretty big news. i am SO happy for you, and i hope you plan on coming to southeast michigan at some point--you've got a big group of fans here just waiting to see you.
congrats!
<3
wow. congrats!
2008 is going to rock; i can just tell.
sweet man!!
this is all great news.
you know what'd also be great??
you live right down the road from me.
like, your apartments are 5 minutes away.
( i don't stalk you--i noticed on one of your pictures, haha )
so we should hang out when you get unbusy.
though '08 looks to be a VERY busy year for you.
This is absolutely amazing!
Congrats on everything, Chad! :]
I'm so proud of you (:
but, I'm kinda concerned you'll get really mainstream and yeahhhh. Just hopefully that wont happen, youknow?
<3
Dude! Awesome! I'm glad it's finally happened that you're getting your music into the stores! I'll definitely be buying your CDs! As much as I'm sure you've heard this a million times by now, I can't wait for them! All that hard work of yours paid off. I hope you're proud of yourself, because you should be!
i forgot to say this in my last comment:
1. the militia group rules.
2. AP rules.
by being distributed by tmg and featured in AP, you're in some damn good company. that's definitely something to be proud of.
i'm sooo excited for you, and for all of your listeners.
my new years resolution is to every night, choose a song from my ipod, listen to it like 5 milion times as i write down the lyrics [not look them up online] and then write down what i think the lyrics mean, what the song means to me, why key parts reach me, why the lyrics interest me, and how it represents my life at that moment. i've found that i can connect with the music on a much deeper level, and that i can learn a lot about who i am by doing this.
i began christmas eve, and i used "boys, girls, sing!" as my first entry.it seemed to click with me at the moment, and it helped me sort through some problems i had ben dealing with.
i just wanted to let you know that yor music has really helped me, and i can't wait for your new cds and tour :]
i loved being able to se you at wired [evansville, in] and i hope that you'll consider coing back soon. :]
i'll be tuning in every tuesday!

I'm so excited for your new albums and I'm really proud of you for starting your record label! you sure are the best! and I was wondering because you said that you were eventually going to sign other bands... are they going to be all different types of music?

when i recieved my issue in the mail, i got excited because paramore was featured on ap. i opened my guilty pleasure of the month. after reading about different opinions about digital vs hard copy albums and the importance of buying band merch i saw...
YOU.

i like the fact that they included how hopeful and brightening your lyrics were.
one thing though, dear.
you are in murfreesboro.
you are travelling to california, canada, japan.

Wow. All of this is seriously amazing, Chad. I love seeing other people with big ambitions and yours are taller than the Chrysler (I always thought it was more awesome than the Empire State Building, plus much less overrated haha) :)
The next 365 days (leap year!) are going to be amazing for you. And somehow... dunno exactly how, but somehow it makes me feel like this year is going to be a HUGE lookup for me, and just as good as yours. And although I love your music, I haven't really stuck to it a whole lot the past year, but this year I'm making it different. I'm beside you all the way :D

2007 was a bad year for me, alot of family deaths and struggles, and you're music inspired me to keep writing, I don't want to sound like a cliche tragic movie, but I want you to know that I am so excited. Your story inspired me to continue music as a possible carrer.
I have a feeling 2008 will be a MUCH better year.
You're so inspiring.

Yeah! Go you, Chad! I'm so happy for you! (and excited for the records, haha.)

No, seriously, the Militia Group? I know you're not really signed to them, but that's the record label I always envisioned you on.
This is sweet :] I can't wait until I can buy physical copies of your CDs!
(Not to mention I can say I listened to you first :P)
Congrats Chad!

Holy musical talent! I'm so crazy excited! I have to admit I was worried you might be on some super label and we could lose you to that crazy world. I should have known you wouldn't do that, but create your own little slice of musical loveliness. I'm so excited for you!!!!!!
I'll be tuning in for this blog every Tuesday. :] EXCITEMENT!
Chad! Oh my GOD! I'm so fucking proud of you! I just read all that and nearly started crying I'm so happy! Congratulations, and you DESERVE it, and don't let anyone ever tell you different!
oh my goodness chad sugg i'm so excited for this. probably almost as excited as you.
:D
and i subscribe to AP, and the minute i saw you, i spazzed! i was like, "DAD! OMG! BACKSEAT GOODBYE IS IN AP!"
and because i've forced my dad to listen to you, he was excited too. he likes your music too :) and my dad usually doesnt like the music i listen to.
so anyway, congrats!! this should be a great year and i wish you the best of luck in all you do. and i'll be buying your album the minute it comes out, you can be sure.
Jesus, Chad Sugg. Could you be any more spectacular?
I'll be at your concerts singing along to every song. And avidly reading your blogs.
You deserve this, all the way.
Awesome news, Chad! You have to be one of the hardest working and most aggresive performers i have ever seen. Nothing but the best to you and I look forward to following your 2008 year.
And as much as you appreciate all the fans , i appreciate you . You show us that you do care about our opinions.
rich

I'm really excited for you! This is huge...you were right. I'm so proud of you--you deserve all of this! I remember when you had a few hundred friends on myspace and you thought it was huge...now look at you :] You're on top of the world!
Encinitas huh? That means you'll be kicking it with Jakob right? Lucky! I hope you have an awesome time when you do come out to the greatest state on earth (CA, oviously :)! You should do some mini gigs in cafes or something. I'm sure Jakob knows of somewhere you could go. Maybe I'd drive down from LA to see you. You might just be that lucky :] haha anyways, I've been waiting for this day for you for a while now and I just wanted to congratulate you on getting there. I've been listening to you since nearly the beginning and I know you've got a long way to go. Good luck!

Wow; that's very nice of you to post lovely long blogs.
I am so excited that the new albums are going to be released in larger retail stores, that'll be so much easier with those of us with stubborn parents.
Lot's of luck with all your ultra lovely plans you've been talking about :)
Omg. I can't fucking wait!!!

i hope this year will be as good for me as it will for u. and i'm so glad that ur not going to turn into another stuck up sell-out asshole like everyone else seems to do. knowing that you actually care, or have a soul, makes your music to me even more divine and powerful =]

I cant wait for your tour!! You have to come to Canada... Its the best place in the world. I'm sure you'll love it.
To be completely honest, this blog has gotten me the most excited I've been since May.
You should definitely come to Providence, RI when you tour. Or as close to there as possible.
Exciting! I'm not quite sure what to say. All that info was kind of overwhelming!
Congratulations on everything and I hope you have a great new year!
Wow, sounds like it's going to be an amazing year. I love that you like San Diego county. Does that mean some local shows coming up, eh? ha. I only live like 25 minutes from Encinitas. Should be a great time.

I'm so excited for you! I had a feeling it had to do with some sort of recording with a record label or whatnot, but I'm glad you aren't signed and will stay you in your music.
I can't wait until all 5 EPs are available in your store. I'll be sure to buy all 5 once available. :)
Oh my goodness!! I'm so excited for you and all of us fans/listeners!! YAY!!!!!!!!

this is super exciting& im verrrryy happyfor you chad!
This is fucking amazing(:
I am so excited.
Ohhh thats so exciting! You deserve it all!!!
Chad, I think it's amazing what you're doing with the record label ideas. And I love that you're not selling yourself. I mean. That sounded wrong. But I mean not selling out to some major label like an MTV type of deal. It's very exciting that you're coming out with these new albums and going on tour all over. And it's going to be great when we all can finally buy your CDs in actual stores instead of online. Good luck to you in this upcoming year. You have a lot going for you and I know you'll do well.
wowww that's a load full, but all good :)
you can count on me to be at your showssss <3
I'm so stoked for everything you have planned and whatnot, it's going to be an incredible year. See you soon hopefully... (:
Chad man! Congrats on everything. Give me a call sometime so we can catch up.
