CLAY AIKEN

Clay Aiken To Release Brand-New Album, On My Way Here, On May 6th 2008

Eagerly Awaited Collection Is The Pop Superstar's First Album Of Original Songs Since 2003

Multi-platinum selling pop singer Clay Aiken will release his fourth album, On My Way Here, on RCA Records/19 Entertainment on May 6th, 2008. The collection is the 29-year-old Raleigh, NC, native's first album of original songs since his 2003 chart-topping, double-platinum debut Measure of a Man.

On My Way Here chronicles Aiken's experiences over the past five years, ascending from popular contestant on the second season of American Idol to pop superstar. The album's theme came to Aiken when he and his executive producer Jaymes Foster fell in love with a song written by One Republic frontman Ryan Tedder called "On My Way Here." The message of the lyrics — how the lessons we learn while growing up shape us into who we become as adults — struck a very deep chord with the artist. The title track "On My Way Here" will be the first radio single from the album to be released later this month. Additionally, the single, "On My Way Here" will premiere as an "AOL First Listen" on Monday, April 7th.

New CD Listed at Best Buy, Amazon.ca

May 6 is solidifying as the release date for Clay's new album, with new listings up at Best Buy and Amazon.ca. Both retailers are listing the album as "TBA".

Amazon.ca lists the CD as an import, which also happened when ATDW, MCWL and MOAM were released. However, there is almost no doubt that Sony BMG Canada will issue the CD as a regular domestic release for our Claynadian fans.

Over at Amazon.com, the CD has slipped to #3 on the music bestsellers list. Let's keep those orders coming and bring it back to #1!

Want a Clay Aiken checkbook? Here's an interesting one from My Friends and I.

• Music News Magazine - Clay is the featured artist for this month... nice little mention of the upcoming summer tour:

  Enjoy an evening under the stars with Clay Aiken. Clay is kicking off his "An Evening With Clay Aiken-Summer Tour 2007" on July 4th at Pizza Hut Park in Dallas, Texas. Clay is ready to get back on the road behind his latest studio album, "A Thousand Different Ways," with a fresh slate of shows scheduled for this summer.
  

• Adweek -article about a new TV commercial from electronics giant Best Buy: "The voice belongs to an even creepier corpus: a virtual man with pale skin and weird reddish bouffantish hair—a horror movie version of Clay Aiken."
• Arizona Daily Star NightBuzz - article about a producer who has worked with Clay:

  Ross Hogarth is a producer and engineer whose discography is all over the place. I mean, the man has worked with Ziggy Marley, Ratt, Mandy Moore, Lyle Lovett, Melissa Etheridge, Motley Crue, Clay Aiken and Tucson’s very own Ryanhood, just to name a few. The thought of working with Motley Crue one day and Clay Aiken the next is pretty hilarious, one must admit.
