Ain't this some neat stuff? Jed's album, "Streets of Fall River" (which is really fine BTW) is going to get some TV time.....Here's the news from an e-mail update:

STREETS OF FALL RIVER AND TRUE LIVES

Boston Road Records announces a license agreement has been signed between Jed Marum and Blackhawk Productions for use of music from Jed,s 2000 CD release, "Streets of Fall River" on their upcoming television series called, "True Lives."

"We love his music and expect to use multiple cuts on a several episodes throughout the series," said the show's producer, Dave Blass. A bidding battle among several major networks is currently being waged over distribution rights for the independently produced, 22 part series. Our sources favor Fox or Showtime, but we'll just have to wait and see who wins the worldwide distribution rights.

CONGRATS JED!!!!!

Wow - thanks, all for the thoughts and congrats. Thanks Spaw for posting the message. After my last 'big announcement' I'm a bit gun shy about posting news, these days!

I am indeed pleased to have been selected by the TV show, but I must say I'm more excited about Seamus possibly recording one of my songs.

... and Gray Rooster, well I am looking forward to the OK show. In fact, we need to set the rehearsal schedule, sos I know what I'm doing - not that that's ever stopped me before!
