Los Angeles - November 30, 2005 - Acclaimed Folk, Rock and Soul vocalist Chris
Pierce will be heading out for a west coast tour along with tour mates Charlotte
Martin and Andrew Paul Woodworth, all with newly released albums. The tour will
begin in Southern California and head up through Oregon and Washington hitting
notorious venues along the way.

After opening for SEAL throughout the US and Europe this summer, California
underground music legend Chris Pierce returned to the West Coast just in time to
promote his latest release, Static Trampoline. He mixes his coffee-rich voice and
positive message with elements of soul, reggae, blues, folk and rock, placing him
among today's best singer songwriters. Static Trampoline is already being compared
to classic recordings from Bill Withers, Jimmy Cliff, Van Morrison, and Otis
Redding. Billboard magazine states that there is no discounting Bill Withers
influence on a string of contemporary artists, including Chris Pierce, Raul Midon,
and John Mayer. Static Trampoline contains the single, "Are You Beautiful,\" and was
featured on the soundtrack for this summer's blockbuster film, Crash starring Sandra
Bullock, Don Cheadle and Matt Dillon. In addition, the song was the theme for
Banana Republic's ad campaign for the Bravo\'s hit series Project Runway. The LA
Times recently featured
Chris Pierce as one of ten artists you should know. Now is your chance!
