The Apprentice Documentary Now Streaming on Vimeo

Matt — Mon, 14 Nov 2011 16:08:23 +0000

I posted up the documentary of my band The Apprentice on Vimeo last week. This was done by the Deep Studios last year and chronicles the making of our latest album “Oh the Slavery Comfort Brings.” It is about 17 minutes long, so if you get a chance, take a look at it. You can order the album and other merchandise at www.fdrshop.com

Operation Christmas Child-You Can Help!

Matt — Wed, 09 Nov 2011 17:19:33 +0000

For the past few years, my wife and I have been involved with a program called Operation Christmas Child. This program sends shoeboxes overseas to children who otherwise would not get anything for Christmas. These boxes are packed by individuals all over the US with basic hygiene items such as soap, toothpaste, etc as well as small toys, candy, and school supplies. We are trying to make as many boxes as well can this year and we could use your help.
From now through November 14, any purchase of music (CD, Digital, and even the Grab Bag Deal) from the Future Destination Shop will go to help with this project. 100% of the purchase price will be donated to buy supplies for the boxes.
If anyone has any questions or would like to donate money directly, e-mail me at matt@fdrecords.com
This is a great way to help out those who are often forgotten.
Thank you in advance,
Matthew and Erin Jenkins

New Hoodies/T-Shirts/New Subscribers

Matt — Wed, 05 Oct 2011 00:20:30 +0000

Hello!
I’ve currently been on the road working for Hawthorne Heights for the last two months. I am currently siting in Idaho before a show. Thanks to all the people who have downloaded the sampler card that has been given out at shows. I hope you have liked some of the music.
In other news, we have a brand new hoodie/t-shirt up in the store for preorder. It would really help me out if you would preorder so that we can get appropriate sizes since it is too expensive to order a lot of extras. Click the images below to order.

Thanks!

Summer already?

Matt — Tue, 07 Jun 2011 19:33:12 +0000

I can’t believe the summer is already here! Sorry for the lack of updates. First off I would like to congratulate Josh Chambers of The Hotshot Freight Train on his marriage last weekend. Josh Hutson of the band will also be getting married this weekend. Please go over to their facebook page and congratulate them. In honor of this occasion, for a limited time you can get both of their full-length albums for $9.99 with free US shipping by clicking the banner below.

In other news, The Apprentice have a few dates this summer as well as hopefully a tour this fall. We are selling all 5 of their albums in a special deal for just $19.99. Some of the albums are about to go out of print physically (they will still be sold digitally), so be sure to order today if you want to pick up the CDs.

We still have a handful of shirts in limited sizes for Future Destination that we are trying to clear out. All Future Destination Records shirts are just $6.99 with free shipping. Click the shirt below to see the selection.

We have some artist that will be recording new albums this year. Both Cannonhands and The Hotshot Freight Train have new material and should both be in the studio this year for new full-length albums.

Thanks for the support and be sure to check back here for updates. Be sure to “Like” us on Facebook

Now through March 30 we will be offering a sampler of songs from each The Story Changes release called “Running Start Collection” It will only be available for a few days, so be sure to download it and tell your friends to do the same.

We are making way for new Future Destination Records shirts, but we really need to clear out all we have left. All Future Destination Records label shirts are $6.99 with free shipping in the US until we sell out. We only have limited sizes in designs, so order now to make sure you get it. We have around 20 shirts total between all of our designs.

The Metro Pulse paper in Knoxville is creating a “Best Of” list. If you have a second vist http://www.metropulse.com/ and vote The Hotshot Freight Train as the best of Knoxville.

We may be shooting a video (or 2) for Rookie of the Year this coming weekend. More info to come and we may be calling on some extras.

The Apprentice will be going on tour April 15-23. This tour will also be the last ride of my almost 6 month beard. Does anyone have any suggestions on what I should shave it into before I am clean-faced for the summer?

Look for more updates next week.
