Putting a Face on the Fans

Jason Castro released a new album on Tuesday, November 9. Its title, Who I Am, was the inspiration for his tweet:



My new album, "Who I Am", is out today! Show me who you are! Tweet me a picture of yourself doing something you love& follow it with #whoiam

And his fans did, a lot of them. It was a special moment and it seemed sad to see it all disappear in the fast pace of social media. In case you missed them, here are a few of the pictorial responses.
















Get Who I Am and the EP, Live From Studio 1290 at iTunes, Amazon or from his website, Jason Castro Music

Best Article Ever

USA Today talks to Jason about his new album and live EP, which are slated for release tomorrow.

Some of my favorite excerpts from the article?

"These days in music, you want to leave as many options as possible for people," Jason says. "There are all sorts of music listeners. We really don't want to miss out on somebody because they're not a certain type."

"There are people that support you and really care for time with you. It's great to know that there are fans like that who really do care. Most of them I know by name and face, I've seen them so many times."

Can I get a collective, "Awwwwww." Is it any wonder why we love him so? <3
