    the tweet beat

    Our favorite, Jim Cantiello revealed some of Jason's tweets on The Tweet Beat at MTV.com. All in good fun.

    Request Jason on Radio Disney!

    Let's show Radio Disney how much we love Jason's new single, Let's Just Fall In Love Again. Maybe they'll even add it to their rotation!!

    You can request online at: http://radio.disney.go.com/speak/request.html by clicking on the 'can't find my song/artist' link at the top of the list of songs. Enter your name, age and state and write in: Let's Just Fall In Love Again, Jason Castro. It's that easy!!

    Or, you can call the request line at: 877-870-5678.

    http://www.radiodisney.com

    Remember, the correct protocol to use when requesting Jason's single to any radio station is to request no more than three times in one day. We don't want the radio stations to feel like they're being spammed.

    Thank you for supporting Jason.

    Jason breaks into the Billboard Hot 100!

    Jason's first single, "Let's Just Fall in Love Again", debuted this week at number 59 on Billboard's Hot 100 Digital Songs. Nearly 23,000 digital copies have sold in the one week since its release with only word of mouth advertising and a few radio plays in a small handful of cities.

    Jason is currently preparing for a radio tour to promote the single. In the midst of the tour, a few live shows have already been confirmed:

    September 17 - Little Rock, AR - Metroplex
    September 18 - Kansas City, MO - TBD
    September 25 - Dallas, TX - Texas State Fair

    I imagine this tour will find the single moving up the charts faster than even we anticipated. It will be exciting to see just how far it goes.

    "Let's Just Fall in Love Again" is currently streaming live on Jason's official website, http://www.jasoncastromusic.com. While you're there, be sure to pre-order his debut album, slated for release on November 17th.
