RICHIE FIELDS SINGLE IS CHIP MARTIN/JAN LINVILLE SONG:

RICHIE FIELDS
When You Love Someone That Much
Writer: Martin/Linville; Publisher: VB Three/Riddle,
BMI;

—Propulsive and energetic, with a wonderfully
upbeat, positive message. His vocal rides above the
rocking track with admirable force and emotion. This
is Richie’s third straight winner, I am happy to

Matt Kennon:
Chip is also now coproducing the upcoming CD by Matt
Kennon along with mega-producer James Stroud on
Stroud's new label, Stroudavarious Records. The
project is slated for release late summer 2009.
Oliver Kelly:
Chip was proud to produce the music for the new song
just released by the exciting new duo Oliver/Kelly.
Their video was released in November of 2008. Enjoy
the video.
VanZant working with Chip Martin to pitch
new artist Matt Bailie:
Johnny (Lynyrd Skynyrd) and Donnie VanZant (.38
Special) were in town in May to pitch their
discovery, Matt Bailie, to Nashville record
companies. Matt grew up knowing the VanZant family,
and when he took to singing country music the
VanZant brothers mentored and cultivated Matt's
talents, eventually guiding him to move to Nashville
where he started working with producer Chip Martin.
(CMP studio) After a year of song searching, studio
work and writing, Matt was ready to put himself in
front of Nashville Music executives, with the
VanZant boys running point for him. The process is
ongoing, and any big news will be put on the wire.
ADDITIONAL NEWS
I finished working on
Janelaine's CD- it is
a mix of new-age stylings and power-pop
instrumentals featuring her unique piano
virtuoso...truly a tour de force of sound!
I'm performing around Nashville with an amazing
band called
"Vinyl Radio" and if you live in the area you need to
come see us. We do covers of classic 70's songs like
no one else in town!
I am also playing with an "Elton John" tribute group

Opera" with Brandie Spradley.
