Jen & the Cast and Crew of LUMINA

As you already know from my previous post on Tim Be Told, I'm a huge fan of this Charlottesville, Virginia based band and hearing "All of Me" on LUMINA webisode 4 is still one of my favorite moments in the entire series.

And now Tim Be Told is offering their single "Analyze" from their new EP From the Inside for free for fans to download!  Grab it while it's hot!

We're very excited to announce that LUMINA has been nominated for 6 categories in the 1st Annual Indie Soap Awards!  It is an absolute honor to have been nominated and we're excited to be in the running for the final round of judging.
