LIVE FROM STUDIO A2, VOLUME TWO:
BACK AND BETTER THAN EVER
Proceeds to Benefit the Michigan Theater
Ann Arbor, Mich. - Live From Studio A2, Volume Two, the second compilation CD of live, locally recorded performances by top national touring artists, will be released Tuesday, November 3rd by Ann Arbor’s 107one. With sixteen songs handpicked and carefully re-mastered to showcase the amazing talent that comes through the area, Live From Studio A2, Volume Two boasts an impressive lineup of emerging and chart-topping artists.
The CD will be available exclusively at Borders stores in Ann Arbor, Brighton, Canton and Novi with the introductory price of $12.99. One can also purchase both Live From Studio A2, Volume One and the new Volume Two as a package for $20. The three Ann Arbor Borders locations are in downtown Ann Arbor on Liberty Street, Arborland on Washtenaw and Water’s Place on Lohr Road.
The project is made possible once again by the generous support of Bank of Ann Arbor and Sesi Motors. Net proceeds from sales of the disc will benefit the Michigan Theater Foundation.
With stand-out tracks from artists you’ve loved for years like Indigo Girls, They Might Be Giants and John Hiatt, as well as artists on the rise like Feist, James Morrison, Brett Dennen, Vienna Teng and Donavon Frankenreiter, Live From Studio A2, Volume Two shows what makes Ann Arbor truly special with its eclectic mix of talent and artistry. A complete track listing follows.
Since its introduction to our airwaves, homes, and day-to-day activities, Ann Arbor’s 107one has become a staple of the Washtenaw County area. With the numerous artists who have performed live on the air from the acclaimed Studio A2 and at the Studio A2 On the Road events at Borders, listeners have witnessed thousands of live, local performances that are now part of Ann Arbor’s musical heritage.
Last year marked the first time those memorable performances were captured on disc. The result was the Live From Studio A2, Volume One benefit CD, which helped raise thousands of dollars for the historic Michigan Theater on Liberty in downtown Ann Arbor and its focus on live entertainment for more than 80 years:
The newest and best live performances, both from artists’ visits to the studio and locations across the area have been captured to to create Live From Studio A2, Volume Two!
