Project: Scrapbook

Two, possibly three, years in the thought process... Project Scrapbook is finally being put into action and we want YOU to get involved.

Sarah Slean fans across Canada, and well... the world really, are coming together in a unique collaboration to give a little something back to Sarah.

The Idea:

A scrapbook with a page for each fan to decorate however he/she chooses. Write Sarah a message. Draw her a picture. Whatever your little heart desires.

To be included in the project, complete your 12"x12" page (standard scrapbook-sized paper... which you can just cut out of a bigger piece of paper or poster board if you're a guy and don't want to tolerate the social stigma of actually walking into a scrapbook store.) and send it to the project coordinator before mid-June because the goal is to give it to Sarah for her birthday.

Now get off the computer and pull all your sleanster passioneer creativity out from your pillowcases and maybe, just maybe, we'll see it materialize before June 21.

Day One video

Sarah Slean, though busy touring and promoting her new album, at some point in the past few months, neglected to mention that she was producing a second music video for the title track to "Day One."

The music video is a refreshing stray from the cliche twenty-something female vocalist video. It charmingly captures Sarah Slean's artistic nature (through animation by Nelson Chan) both musically and visually.

To view a stream of the video:

Real Media Player

Happy Valentines - Sarah on Mix99

Sarah was on the Humble and Fred radio show this morning on the Mix99. They joked about Sarah missing their Christmas show and the early start time today.

Sarah played Day One with Andrew on guitar. That's the new single and the video has recently appeard on MuchMoreMusic. The Mix99 then opened the phones lines to where a person would talk about their valentine and then Sarah would construct a song a song for them. I believe she made 2 or 3 of these songs with Humble and Fred helping her along the way. They were pretty funny and Sarah seemed to be in good a good mood. She concluded that she return to Toronto to play at the Phoenix Concert Hall on April 16th. That's one big venue .

Keep your eyes and ears open. Have a sweet valentines.

1 Night Only - Sarah in London England

From Cathy posted on the SS message board:

Friday February 4, 2005
5:00 PM sharp
606 Club
90 Lots Road
SW10 Chelsea

This is a showcase for industry professionals but it would be great to have some Slean fans in the audience. Spread the word.

And, before you ask, no... she will not be playing any other shows in the UK at this time.

If your following that thread news is that Sarah has been in Germany working very hard for the world release of Day One.
