Here's some info on some friends of mine that you should check out:

Keston and Westdal's new album "Truth is Stranger" is now available as a high quality download from http://www.kestwest.com/. The album is made up of thirteen tracks fully mastered by Tom Garneau and encoded at 192kbps (as high or higher quality than what will be available on iTunes and other online music sources). The release also includes a recently produced bonus track called "El Amanecer" which was inspired by the instrumental bridge section in "Se Fue". Guest artists include Desdamona, Estair Godinez, and more. High resolution images of the cover design by Hiroaki Kato and complete liner notes are also included.

For a $10.00 (USD) donation via PayPal you will be emailed a link with a session id that will not expire for several days, giving you plenty of time to download all 103 luscious megabytes of music included in the zipped archive of this album, more than two years in the making. Proceeds will be used to manufacture promo CDs for radio and an upcoming international CD distribution. To hear some excerpts before you buy, click on the player in the upper right of www.kestwest.com and thanks for your support!
