SUPPORTING HOME GROWN TALENT THAT IS SUPPORTING US

Local talented musician Donovan Woods newest album release called ‘Without People’ is due out in stores like Cheeky Monkey on November 6th.

Sarnia raised folk and country singer-songwriter Donovan Woods has released several albums of folk and roots music over the years, including the Juno Award-winning Both Ways. Not only does Donovan write and record his own songs, but many other high profile musicians have recorded his songs including Matt Andersen, Alan Doyle, Tim McGraw, Billy Currington, Logan Mize & The Reklaws to name a few.

The announcement of a new release from Donovan is exciting to his many fans, but this release does have another purpose. Donovan has put together special indie-retailer exclusives for the vinyl release of his forthcoming album, ‘Without People’.

The message to fans from Donovan is to consistently remind fans that the spirit of this campaign is to support indie retailers. Donovan has delayed launching the sale of the album/new merchandise on his web store to ensure as many indie retailers can take pre-orders so that fans have the option to support local businesses.

Leading up to the release, Cheeky Monkey will be taking pre-orders of both the limited edition exclusive to indie stores coloured vinyl… and of the CD. The limited edition vinyl will include an autographed insert and a special note written by Donovan.

The Top 10 indie stores with the most pre-orders by mid October will be awarded a ‘Without People T-Shirt Bundle’ to use as a draw item for all their customers.
As of Thursday, September 10th Cheeky Monkey will be taking orders in the hopes of making Donovan’s hometown THE #1 seller of this release.
