There will be another push at the conclusion of the tour to reinforce the tour's success, and to start aiming the way into the holiday selling season. When possible, all facets of the project will be tied together via the artwork of Polish painter Halina Tymusz, whom Basia discovered. There will be a cohesiveness with everything. Additionally, during the first week of release, Epic is planning listener appreciation receptions in New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, San Francisco, and San Diego. The parties, coordinated through local radio stations, will be attended by Basia.
Video plays a big part in the plan.
Basia will be VH-1's May artist of the month. Beck credits Basia's new manager, Dee Anthony, with helping bring the whole plan into focus. That's something Epic is doing in general, but it was also because of Dee. He has been especially involved in looking at comprehensive touring plans and putting those plans together early. Basia will start a would tour in July in the Far East that will bring her to the U.S. toward the end of the month.
