FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

SCI Fidelity Records Chooses to Print Responsibly

Boulder, CO May 1, 2008 - SCI Fidelity Records (www.scifidelity.com) is pleased to announce the forthcoming Railroad Earth (www.railroadearth.com) studio release, Amen Corner, which will be in stores nationwide on June 10th, 2008. The album was written and recorded at lead singer/songwriter Todd Sheaffer’s 300 year-old farmhouse in New Jersey’s rural countryside. Amen Corner is, literally and figuratively, the rustic sound of a band happy to be at home.

“Normally,” Sheaffer explains, “you come home after six weeks on the road and jump into the studio, all frazzled because you don’t have much left in the tank. This time I feel like we’ve invited our friends into our living room and that’s basically how we recorded it. We wanted for years to try working this way and I’m so happy we were finally able to do it.”

Combine that with the fact that Sheaffer, bassist Johnny Grubb and drummer/percussionist Carey Harmon all became fathers in the months leading up to the recording sessions and you have a recipe for change.

“The changes in our lives brought about a peacefulness that is reflected in the music,” says Sheaffer. “We consciously tried to take the approach of ‘less is more’ in how we arranged the songs.”

That “less is more” attitude is also evident in the band and record labels decision to make the album as “green” as possible. After considerable research they selected Printing Responsibly of Rockaway, NJ (www.printingresponsibly.org) to print all promotional materials related to the album. All posters and postcards announcing the album release are printed on FSC Certified paper using soy based inks, as will tour materials which will be produced later this year.

“SCI Fidelity and Railroad Earth have devoted considerable time and energy, educating ourselves on environmental issues and the green movement,” said Matt Hogan, Director of Marketing at SCI Fidelity. “The Forecast page on the album web site (www.railroadearth.com/amencorner) is devoted entirely to various green-related issues, environmental action and sustainability causes. In planning for the release of Railroad Earth’s new album, Amen Corner, we looked for a resource to create quality promotional materials in the most environmentally responsible way, without going over budget. Printing Responsibly’s expertise in sustainability, as well as their competitive pricing, high quality product, and quick turnaround were exactly what we and the band were looking for.”

“FSC certification is about much more than recycled paper”, stated Steven VanPraagh, owner of Printing Responsibly. “It’s about knowing where the fiber in the paper comes from, and that any trees that are cut are replanted. It’s about people all over the world working in the timber and paper industries being as responsible as possible; replenishing and sustaining our renewable resources. It’s about environmental, economic, social and personal responsibility. And in this case, it happens to be about great music too.”
