| Corinne Bailey Rae - new album and US Tour On July 24th, British singer-songwriter Corinne Bailey Rae will begin her first U.S. tour in support of her self-titled debut album, which debuted at #17 on The Billboard 200 with sales of over 40, 000 copies. "Put Your Records On" is currently #10 at the Smooth Jazz radio format and #22 at AAA radio. Beginning next week, VH1 will increase the accompanying video to Gung Ho rotation (the channel's highest rotation) -- the newest development in a massive cross-platform VH1, VH1 Soul and VH1.com "You Oughta Know" campaign for Bailey Rae. The video has also been added by MTVU and BETJ. Bailey Rae was recently nominated for the "BETJ Cool Like That" award and was voted "Best New Act" in Mojo's annual readers' poll. In mid-July, Bailey Rae will be the featured artist for Yahoo! Music's "Critical Eye, " part of their Who's Next program. And following her pick as an AOL Breaker, she is featured on AOL and Network Live airing from last month's Rock In Rio show from Lisbon. write your comments about the article :: © 2006 Jazz News :: home page |
