Jay Nash joined forces with Matt Duke and Tony Luka for an EP called "TFDI" and the collaboration has paid off. Today "TFDI" sits a top the iTunes Singer Songwriter charts. The four song EP features a nice cover of The Band's "The Weight" and may represent a new promotional model for indie artists. By drawing on the fan base of multiple artists the release may spur more sales than a solo effort. Of course, individual releases get publicity too from the collaboration's success.
Jay Nash is not new to teaming up with fellow artists. He's collaborated with chart topper Sara Bareilles in the past and he brought long time show partner Garrison Starr to play with him on his Sun Studio Sessions appearance:
A full half hour version of Jay's Sun Studio Session will air this January on PBS and public tv stations (check local listings) across the country. Meanwhile you can check out more Jay Nash songs and tour dates here.
