GAS CAN - Tips
I finally bought a new car from my friend/fellow musician Thomas Boles and I'm excited to be out on the road again. If you want to be super awesome and help out and buy a few gallons of gas... you can bring a gas card to one of the shows, drop a few bucks into the gas can tip jar or go to the Merch Page and buy some fun stuff and/or drop a few bucks in the virtual gas can tip jar. Every little bit helps!
RADIO - Please Call/E-mail/IM & Request
Lovely Distractions has been added to the playlist of 200 or so radio stations in 40+ states in the U.S. and a few Canadian stations too. Find a station near you and tune in or listen to one that streams online. I need your help! Call, e-mail, IM a request for a song from Lovely Distractions.

SONGWRITING - February Album Writing Month
In February... I joined a few thousand people around the world to attempt to write 14 songs in 28 days. I ended up writing 20 new songs ranging from acoustic to blues to hip hop.. I've completed three FAWMs and two 50 Songs in 90 Days challenges... totaling nearly 200 new songs written for the challenges. Listen to all 20 new songs for a limited time: http://fawm.org/fawmers/danvaillancourt/
