Ole signs Haley to New Worldwide Deal! New EP!

[buzzenator]

Well...that's soon!

Yes it is. Not until today. I had been bugging Marketing but they sounded nearly as much in the dark as I was. They knew the project was in the works, but they had no project management dates (or at least that they could/would share). Then, today I got this call from Jennifer, probably at the request of marketing (to get this guy off their back!). I don't mind pressing.

And how do you know her?

I don't know her at all. The first I'd really heard of her was when she tweeted a couple of times about being in the studio w/ Haley when she was recording her EP. Also I looked at Ole's website after I read your tweet & Jenn is 1 of only 2 Creative Managers listed. The other - Emily, is in their Nashville office.

In between that there are some other things that made me think she took over managing ZZ Ward in some capacity after Chiara left, but I'll post that on ZZ's thread.


Speaking of Jenn, looks like it's party time for Ole Bluestone. I wonder if Haley is going w/ them.

Actually mspencebc was w/ Haley yesterday when they were mixing her CD, but I don't know whether or not Haley was w/ them today.

Day #3 of mixing @HaleyReinhart and it's sounding absolutely incredible.
An honor being part of this amazing artist's next chapter. #DEVG

Any idea what "#DEVG" stands for?

Abbreviated title of the EP?

Four song titles?

Sounds like a Anders thing searched the # tag and saw he used it at least 8 months ago - don't really know tho

Funny I was just searching around in various ways for that too.

I searched his name and DEVG and found four tweets. The oldest from December 2013.

"Stolt" apparently means "proud"

@IAmJulieMoe @HaleyReinhart @andersgrahn What a great week! Killer performance you two x

Alex is another London-based musician who co-wrote Better. His name appears first in the credits.

So Better is most likely the surest song to make the EP from all the evidence

( I think that's deductive as opposed to inductive reasoning?)

Based on the conversations you guys recorded, I'm guessing that "Good or Bad' and "Lover Girl" are almost certain to be on the EP as well. At this stage in the game, it seems unlikely she would sing a "new song" that wasn't going to be there.
