Another nice week in college radio, as The Escape Frame moved up to #190 on the CMJ Top 200!  19 stations included The Escape Frame on their top 30 playlists.  This means the band is doing very well at college radio, along with their labelmates True Widow.
 
We had a number of chart debuts this week: WXLV in Schnecksville, PA, WNTE in Mansfield, PA, WMCR-2 in Monmouth, IL, WAIH in Potsdam, NY and WRBU-1 in Peoria, IL.

True Widow keeps climbing the CMJ Top 200 and came in at #155 in the top 200 albums in college radio.

We added a lot of new stations this week which really helped our cause. Some of the new cores showing us support include KZSU in Stanford CA (#8), WAWL in Chattanooga TN (#21), and WBWC in Berea OH (#27).

Some of the other big supporters include KFLI in Prescott AZ (#2), WSIN in New Haven CT (#4), XTSR in Towson MD (#4), WXLV in Schnecksville PA (#6), WUPX in Marquette MI (#9), WMLU in Farmville VA (#13), WMSR in Oxford OH (#14), and more!

We will be announcing a new signing very soon.

We have an unreleased True Widow demo song for you just in time for Black Friday (almost a US holiday).  It's called I.N.O. and is available at the following link in MP3 format http://endsounds.com/media/downloadredirect.asp?MediaID=169.

True Widow's Self-Titled debut album is in stores today (11/11/2008)!  Pick it up at a store near you, the End Sounds store, or online.

The Escape Frame performed their first ever acoustic performance at a Hot Topic in Montgomery, Alabama.  You can view a video of "Away In Love" as well as other songs at Vimeo.
