Upcoming albums that I'm interested in

Here are some soon-to-be-released albums:

1. Dolores O'Riordan: No Baggage (release 8/25). Lead singer for The Cranberries has her sophomore album.
2. John Fogerty: The Blue Ridge Rangers Rides Again (release 8/31). Singer-songwriter that was a significant part of Creedence Clearwater Revival and has transitioned to a solo career. The new album has a definite country sound to it and features guests like Bruce Springsteen.
3. Michelle Branch: Everything Comes and Goes (amazon.com says it will be released 11/10/09). After two high profile solo albums and an album as a part of The Wreckers, Michelle returns to the studio to produce a country sounding solo album.

I also have friendships with these independent artists who are working on new albums:

1. The Sugar Dames
2. Noush Skaugen
