Big Head Todd and the Monsters giving away 500,000 copies of their new album

Very cool idea from a very cool band. Most people know them from their major label debut "Sister Sweetly" but there are many other great CDs by them that came out before and after that album.

Read more about it here and download the album too!

They are a great bunch of guys that like to stick around after the show and meet the fans. They put on a great live show too.

Useless fact: My wife's first concert with me was a Big Head Todd concert for the 'Riviera' album at Clutch Cargo's in Royal Oak, Michigan in 2002. I can't believe that was 5 years ago already.

Cut and paste from the press release:
Joining a growing list of artists looking to reach music fans in unique ways, BIG HEAD TODD AND THE MONSTERS are teaming up with radio stations nationwide and mailing nearly half a million copies of their new album ALL THE LOVE YOU NEED directly to listeners. The program started on the group’s website--where 25,000 fans signed up and were sent the CD--and has grown to include several major AAA and Americana stations. KBCO in Denver, the group’s hometown, will mail 75,000 CDs to their subscriber list, and other stations like KGSR (Austin, TX), KPRI (San Diego), KTBG (Kansas City) are doing the same. The album is also now available for free download.
