Nashville Bound Speaks
Nashville Bound Speaks
Welcome to Nashville Bound, an ensemble group of some of the most talented musicians and singers in the home of country music. PS we are also one of the best kept secrets of Nashville.
Why this name?
It represents where we all started from and where we wanted to be as we set out from homes all across the USA and Canada seeking our dream in Nashville.
Do you play live?
Our band - not yet, though we've all been active with other major acts.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?The internet is helping to balance the power in music from record companies and radio station personalities to individual musicians and singers, from greed to creative energy, from corruption and control to entertainment that the public wants.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
If the terms were right, fair and honest.
Band History:Several years ago we got together to help an extraordinarily gifted writer and storyteller share his stories. Jim Putnam had a vision that musicians should be part of the creative process, should actively participate in formulating the composition for recording and he gave us that chance. The result you will hear in our records of which 24 are being released.We record, mix and master at three different studios in Nashville and our writers, arrangers, producers, and engineers are creative geniuses.
Your influences?
We have been trained in everything from classical to country, rock to island, with a little family gospel thrown in to keep us straight. Years of road trips and studio sessions helped us develop individually and we all appreciate many kinds of music and artists, musicians and singers.
Favorite spot?
Wherever our fans, family and supporters live is our favorite place.
Equipment used:
Only real instruments are played on recordings including: drums, bass guitar, piano, acoustic guitars, electric guitars, pedal steel, saxaphone, electric keyboards, various organs, mandolin, fiddle, and, well you get the idea. We are very serious musicians.
Anything else...?
Putnam wrote a book called The Joshua Chronicles and in it he says the Raggedy People, those souls whose purpose in life is to live in enlightenment, are the silent multitudes upon whom a new and wonderful civilization will be built. We appeal to those Raggedy People, the silent and forgotten members of society

Nashville Bound Iowa City Native Hits Country Charts
IVY HOLLOW MEDIA
For Immediate Release
October 20, 2006
Iowa City Native Hits National Country Music Charts
An Iowa City native, Jim Putnam, has gone a long ways since his days at the old St. Patricks school from being a newspaper reporter, a senior staffer in congress and the Office of the President, an appointee of governors in Nebraska and New Jersey, media in NYC, an Emmy in television with National Geographic, to an author of fiction and non-fiction books, but his newest move seems to have taken him full circle.
This week five songs he wrote hit the internet (Soundclick) country and rock charts when they were released by his band Nashville Bound, all reaching the top 50 in five different genres and one, Margarita You’re Such A Cheater, rocketing to #2 in country swing. Why full circle?
The songs can be heard or downloaded at the following internet site:
http://www.soundclick.com/bands/pagemusic.cfm?bandID=603354
Nearly 40 years ago Putnam had a promising rock band in Iowa and gave it up to play basketball for the University of Arizona. Perhaps it is not surprising he’s back in music since he is a 3rd generation musician from Iowa City after his grandfather, Wayne S. Putnam had founded The Wayne Putnam Orchestra, a featured band on the Moose Club circuit back in the 1930’s and ‘40’s. His father, Wayne E. and Uncle Chuck both played in the orchestra and his grandmother taught piano in Iowa City.
Music was not limited to his father’s side of the family as his other Grandfather, Patrick Campbell also of Iowa City, used to drag his young grandson with him in summers to his motel on the outskirts of Springfield, Missouri, the home of country music in the 1940’s and early ‘50’s.
There young Jim spent many long nights listening to the country stars jamming in the motel coffee shop after gigs on the Smilin’ Jack Tyree Radio Show, or Korn’s A-Krackin barn dance which later became the Ozark Jubilee in Springfield. Often the performers were on the way to or from appearances at KMA radio in Shenandoah or the WHO Iowa Barn Dance in Des Moines. Who showed up at the coffee shop in the wee hours of the night? It might be Hank Williams, Porter Wagoner, Speedy Haworth, Chet Atkins, Eddy Arnold, and the list goes on and on.
Putnam now lives in southern Maryland and his band, Nashville Bound is in Nashville, Tennessee. All songs are recorded, mixed and mastered in Nashville where Putnam lived and worked for a time creating and managing media campaigns for Nashville record companies.

Nashville Bound Brings Jive Back To Roots
IVY HOLLOW MEDIA
For Immediate Release
October 24, 2006
Margarita You’re Such A Cheater #1 in Nation
Nashville Bound Brings Jive Back To It’s Roots
Country music fans may have made a powerful political statement saying they are fed up with the fall campaign and election, with the political ads, lies, mud slinging, empty promises and the nonsense of American politics. Stop telling us what’s wrong with America , it’s time to celebrate the USA . Let’s party by embracing the new hit by Nashville Bound called Margarita You’re Such A Cheater, a rollicking country jive song that today hit #1 on the SoundClick Country Swing chart.
Country jive, the newest dance craze in country music, is demonstrating its rapid rise in country popularity by pushing Margarita to the top of the swing charts and to #16 of all country music (over 24,000 country songs are currently fighting for chart position). Jive has come full circle with the success of this song.
After World War II jive was the most popular dance in America and then disappeared from the local scene only to be kept alive in England, France and Germany where jive was learned from American soldiers. For 50 years the Europeans preserved it until it was adopted as a Latin dance and incorporated into International Latin Dance competitions.
Under the guidance of the International Dance Sport Federation (IDSF), dance competition, including Latin jive, has now been given full recognition in the Olympic family of sports. With country jive’s growing popularity in America and Margarita You’re Such A Cheater reaching #1 the jive dance, once an American phenomena, has made it full circle and returned to its roots.
Margarita is available for streaming or free downloads at:
http://www.soundclick.com/bands/songInfo.cfm?bandID=603354&songID=4531016
In the words of the composer Jim Putnam, “perhaps music and dance can bring countries around the world together since the politicians certainly can’t.”

Country Music Misses Nashville Bound
IVY HOLLOW MEDIA
For Immediate Release
Nashville Bound Explodes onto Country Charts
Is the Internet Now the New Music Source in the USA?
Somewhere in the hallowed halls of country music the Nashville record company A&R executives should be trying to figure out how they missed discovering a new group called Nashville Bound, a hot new band on the country music scene.
The first week after release their hit Margarita You’re Such a Cheater reached #2 on the national internet Country Swing charts (Soundclick) and a second release, No One’s Left Keeping Score reached #30 on the Folk Rock charts. Three more releases followed this week, Photographs in the Country Rockabilly genre, What Life’s All About in the Country Western genre, and Of Thee I Sing in the Christian Country genre.
Not bad for a band with no record label, no agent, no manager and no promoter and somehow this mysterious band has been able to record, mix and master 24 new songs in Nashville studios while staying under the major label radar screen.
The internet is demonstrating the power to let people decide who they want to hear and what they want to hear rather than being force fed the latest and safest choices of the A&R and label execs. No deals have to be made with radio personalities or stations before songs can be heard. No rights are hijacked from song writers, musicians or artists by producers who can “guarantee” air play if you give them publishing and producing rights.
While it is true internet sites offering music are still learning the art of greed and they may yet become like the established institutions in the music business, they still seem to be resisting unscrupulous practices and corruption to a far greater degree than the mainstream music business.
Bands like Nashville Bound, so popular with the general public, would have little chance of being who they are with the labels. Listen to their music. It’s very good, very professional, very tight with very meaningful lyrics. But it is in the Southern Rock, Folk Rock, Country Swing, Rockabilly, Christian and Country Western genres, unacceptable for new bands with the labels.
They would never let a new group crossover into so many styles. Not let them pick the songs for release. Never let them produce the songs or select their own producers. Fact is, they couldn’t even pick their own studios to record no matter how good they might sound.
So the internet has the chance to revolutionize the music industry if it can just prevent itself from letting greed be the primary mission. It can be the only source in America of music the public wants to hear if it can resist the temptation to go after big bucks from the record companies. And it can offer the only honest play list on the airways, a list selected by the listeners and free of promotional distortion, if it can continue to serve the public good rather than the bottom line.
Judge for yourself. Nashville Bound music can be heard at: http://www.soundclick.com/bands/pagemusic.cfm?bandID=603354

Nashville Bound Anti-War Anthem Released
Ivy Hollow Media
For Immediate Release
September 28 2006
New Country Anti-War Anthem
Free MP3 download
Nashville Bound, a band out of Nashville, Tennessee, the home of country music, has just released the first of a series of new songs recorded, mixed and mastered in Nashville and certain to raise a few eyebrows in the country music industry.
The group released the song as a free download through the internet to protest the elitist state of the recording and radio industry and the practices of that industry to deny access to record releases and airplay to those groups that refuse to accept the current conditions of the industry.
The song, No One’s Left Keeping Score, is a haunting anthem on the failure of war to bring about peace and can be heard or downloaded for free at the following web sites by looking up Nashville Bound or the song title.
www.MP3.com
www.SoundClick.com
www.MySpace.com
Released through Ivy Hollow Music, an independent label, all songs performed by the band are written (words and music) by Jim Putnam and from his catalog of over 350 works.
The song catalog reflects several types of country music from traditional to country rock including country jive featured on the upcoming release the first week of October titled Margarita You’re Such A Cheater.
It is the hope of Nashville Bound and Putnam that current FCC investigations of the recording and radio industries will clean up the music business and result in the fair treatment of singers, musicians and writers once and for all.
“Music is the heartbeat of America,” said Putnam, “and it is wrong for that heartbeat to be manipulated by those driven by greed and control. There are just too many layers to the industry with too much opportunity for corruption between the artists and the public.”
All profits from No One’s Left Keeping Score will be donated to existing non-profit organizations serving the veteran’s families of the American military. “We can be patriotic and still against war, just as we can support our troops and still disagree with our government,” Putnam said.
