Emmich Carries on After Epic's Failure

10/10/06
. (PR) After two years on Epic Records and nothing to show for his efforts but a re-released version of his debut album SLOW DOWN KID, Val Emmich begged successfully for the privilege to walk away from a multiple album deal and returned to the exact place where he started - writing music by himself for himself. In the fall of 2005, he moved into a house in Woodstock, New York and started working on new material. Armed only with an acoustic guitar and plenty of red wine, Emmich spent the next two weeks shaking off the weight of all expectations other than his own.

The result is SUNLIGHT SEARCHPARTY, a 14-track album Emmich will self-release on October 24. The package will include a one hour documentary DVD directed by Matt Schuman entitled "It's Only Your Life: The Making of Sunlight Searchparty," as well as a 16 page booklet designed entirely by Emmich himself. The album will be available for purchase on valemmich.com and myspace.com/valemmich via cdbaby.com. Downloads can be purchased on the aforementioned websites via Snocap. On October 21, Emmich and his backing band, The Rescue Effort, will preview SUNLIGHT SEARCHPARTY at Maxwells in Hoboken, New Jersey.
