YO CATS!
Hope you’re firing up the grill, cause this will be one SIZZLING summer!
So much to do, so much to say….
A new publishing deal, a new record deal, playing with Peter Criss, teaching at Mark Wood’s Rock Orchestra Camp, numerous other school/camp residencies, festival appearances, concerto performances, and I might even take a nap somewhere along the way!
JOE DENINZON SIGNS PUBLISHING DEAL WITH LUDWIG MASTERS
I am excited to announce that I’ve just signed a publishing deal with LudwigMasters Publications for the string quartet arrangement of my song, “What’s That Thang?” and a play-along CD of my song “Shock Therapy.”
You can hear Sweet Plantain performing my arrangement of “What’s That Thang” at 7:20 in this video:

Here’s Stratospheerius performing “Shock Therapy.” (The song, not the treatment, haha!)

I’ll be sure to let folks know as soon as these become available for sale. I look forward to working with Ludwig and hopefully releasing more arrangements in the future!
