Not too long after Fusebox released their 2004 sophomore album, Once Again, the announcement of work beginning on their third release, Transparent, was made. But with its release being delayed each year, the album has finally seen the light of day - but not as a Fusebox album, but as a solo venture. Frontman and worship leader Billy Buchanan recently sent out the following update on his project and the status of the band...

"Hey Guys,
How are you? Sorry it’s been so long between newsletters. Most of you know that I took a new position as Worship Director at Good News Church in St. Augustine, FL. Over the last 5 months, I’ve been really getting to know the staff and the people at the church. My family and I love it down here! It’s been a real blessing. But with that said, it’s a huge responsibility and does take up a lot of my time. I’m still learning how to balance my role at the church with touring and recording.
-Billy

If you didn’t know, my new solo album, Transparent, is available to purchase at www.fuseboxmusic.com and www.myspace.com/billybuchanan. I released it independently on my label, Vision 1st Music. I’m really proud of it. It’s a groovy acoustic driven album, full of catchy worship songs that are meant to encourage the body of Christ. I mainly released this album to minister to the congregation at my church. The songs are starting to take a life of their own, as other churches around the country are starting to sing them on Sunday mornings. Get yourself a copy. I think it’ll be a real blessing to you. We also have brand new merchandise that you can purchase on our website!! Go to www.fuseboxmusic.com and click on “merch” in the task bar. There, you will find new t-shirt designs, hats, and more.

To dispel the rumors, FUSEBOX HAS NOT BROKEN UP. Because I just released my first solo album, I’m spending a lot of my time promoting it right now. I’m still doing select dates with Fusebox.

Billy Buchanan and Fusebox have just signed with a brand new booking agency. St. Augustine Family Entertainment is now booking Fusebox dates and Billy Buchanan solo dates. Go to www.staugustinefamilyentertainment.com or call (904) 347-8102 if you are interested in booking a date. We’re now focusing on filling our 2008 calendar.

We’ve added new dates to our tour calendar. Go to www.myspace.com/fuseboxmusic or www.fuseboxmusic.com to see if we’re coming to a city near you. More dates are added weekly."
