Phil voted one of the best new indie artists of 2006. Click here for link. Here is the article......

"Singer-songwriter Phil Ayoub (pronounced A-yoob), is a deep-thinking, deep-feeling, quintessential all American boy from Boston. Ayoub’s extraordinary ability to paint a deeply stirring, sweetly-poignant picture with emotive, insightful lyrics and pure natural music combine to create a smooth polish to Ayoub’s personal, frequently humorous thoughts and experiences.

Ayoub’s amazing debut album Schoolbus Window Paper Heart is filled with poignant, honest, romantic and often playful lyrics and simple melodies created with acoustic guitar and jangely synth and of course Ayoub’s earthy, gentle, sensual vocals will keep you hooked from the first track to the ironically funny final secret track. Schoolbus Window Paper Heart is an album I would strongly recommend."

Phil's "River To Ocean" was played on  All Mixed Up FM radio show 03-16-08. The show is hosted by Jim Monaghan and airs on Sunday mornings on the radio and also streamed on the web. Site is here (See site for more details). His myspace site is www.myspace.com/allmixedupradio
That makes an amazing 58 weeks of airplay. I urge everyone reading this to check out his show on Sunday mornings from 6:30am -10am. It is streamed live on the web here. You will hear a very diverse show from someone who has a PASSION for music. He always has kind words to say about Phil and the cd. 

October 20, 2006 was another red letter day for Phil. His song "No Heart Ache" was played on Adam Curry's Daily Source Code podcast  (Show #482){31min 50sec in}. Why is that so big you might ask?. Adam Curry (former VJ on MTV) is known as "The Podfather" since he is associated with developing the whole thing. It is a pretty big deal. Jersey Todd ("the hardest working lawyer in podcasting") is responsible for getting Phil on there. Todd has been a friend of Phil's music from the beginning. He also does a podcast which you should check out www.jerseytoddshow.com for some cutting edge music. This same week Phil reached his 5000th "hit" on the Springsteen Backstreets music post.

An ad for Phil's cd appears on page 11 of the Bruce Springsteen fanzine magazine Backstreets (Spring/Summer 2006 issue)
