The top story this week at Cameron Tilbury Publicity is that David St. Germain has scored a #1 hit on the European Country Music Association's UK Country Chart, for his single Come Home.  The song is also #10 on the European Country Music Association's Euro Chart.  Congrats again David St. Germain...we hope it's the first of many!

Jessica Ridley had a great first week at radio around the world with her hot, new single Fit To Be Tied.  Jessica is an international favorite!  Fit To Be Tied is the North American follow-up to Flaming Red, but it is the third international release--following up Bluer Than Bluegrass, which was released exclusively to international radio.  Keep your eyes on our Facebook page for updates on interviews with Jessica.

Marlee Scott & Vince Gill are doing very well around the world with Train Wreck.  This is a great new song for Marlee--and it's not every day that you get to record with a legend.  Fun video--and there is a line-dance mix available. 

Xander Demos has started to gather momentum internationally with his White Knuckle Driving (WKD).  Rock and metal radio are saying great things about this shredder from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.  In the same vein as Yngwie Malmsteen and Steve Vai, Xander Demos is another name that will be added to the list of guitar greats.  Radio around the world can download White Knuckle Driving--as well as the complete album "Guitarcadia" at www.airplaydirect.com/xanderdemos.

Country Music Factory feat Jordy Jackson made their first chart appearance this week in Australia, entering the Hot Country Top 50 at #48.  Their single, Coffee And Cruise Control continues to add stations around the world.

Thanks to everyone who makes what we do possible. 

Wow.  That's all I can say. 

Actually, I have lots to say but that seemed like a good lead-in to the excitement going on around here.  We have big news on two fronts! 

First, we weclome Xander Demos to Cameron Tilbury Publicity family.  Xander Demos is a metal guitar shredder whose single White Knuckle Driving is getting attention on radio in the US.  We're happy to have him aboard for his international radio promotion and publicity.  Radio and publications can download Guitarcadia, Xander's new album at AirPlayDirect.com/xanderdemos.  Xander is managed by Michael Stover at MTS Management, Pennsylvania.

Second, Big Ride Records has chosen Cameron Tilbury Publicity to work with Marlee Scott again.  Marlee is at radio around the world now with her single Train Wreck, a duet with Vince Gill.  Cameron Tilbury Publicity is handling the international radio promo and publicity aspect of the single.  This is the third single we have worked for Marlee.

Now...updates.

Edmonton rockers One Soul Thrust continue their assault on international radio.  We Gotta Change is the first single from their sophomore album Know One Knows.  The single is now being heard on radio stations from Brazil to the Faroe Islands--and virtually everywhere in between.  Radio promo and publicity is being handled by MapleStar Music & Media.  They have a "deluxe" version of the cd now available from CD Baby--jewelcase, special graphics...check it out!

The Broad River Band remains on the International Country Music chart in the Netherlands with their current single More Than Just A Good Time.  The song is the third single to be released from their debut album Country Singer.  As well as the UK and Europe, the song is doing very well in Japan, Australia and New Zealand.

Stephanie McIlroy is another success story.  Her second single, Forgiven, just hit the charts in Japan as well.  Not bad for a girl from Michelle Wright's hometown of Merlin, Ontario, Canada.
