Perth MusicFogsongs Music Signs WA writer from The Woodenelves
Fogsongs Music Publishing has recently signed Travis Caudle - principal song writer for Perth band The Woodenelves to a worldwide publishing agreement.
After wrapping up the recording of the bands debut album Trips Between Worlds (produced by Tim Powles of the Church) in 2006, The Woodenelves finished the year with a coveted slot as the house band on ROVE LIVE. The episode was the last of 2006 and also featured U2 and Deni & Marcia Hines.
Earlier in 2006, the four-piece rock act took out two national songwriting awards for two tracks off the album – “A Little Bit of Me” won the rock/indie category and “What It Is” won the contemporary pop/dance category of the Australian Songwriters Association awards and flew to Sydney to take part in the awards ceremony.
As well as producing the album, Powles’ drumming prowess also features on the CD, as does the bass talent of Steve Kilbey. The album was mastered by Don Bartley in Sydney.
Travis said, “Having Fogsongs on board helping us as we launch our first album is a great support, and we’re really excited about it. It’s given me a chance to further concentrate on songwriting and gigging with the band as Marshall and Paul help look for new opportunities for us in new markets.”
Marshall Cullen MD of Fogsongs said, “Signing a Perth writer as talented as Travis adds the much needed WA location to our roster so that we now have writers signed in every state and Territory and as we are looking at strong US opportunities for The Woodenelves material I believe great things will come from our partnership – expect to see the boys on the East Coast sooner than you think.”
The album will be launched on May 12 at the Rosemount Hotel in Perth.
