Press Release Body = On a sunny day like so many experienced in North East Victoria,
Australia, the townsfolk of Benalla were introduced to a coffee-guzzling,
croissant-munching, hug-giving (�la Juan Mann), shoplifting creature by the name of
Anna, proudly displaying a "Will Drop Pants 4 Plane Ticket" sign in a cheeky attempt
to find her way back to the tr�s chic south of France.

So... who is Anna? Why does she do that with those underpants? Could this bizarre
creature possibly be a real person?

"Oh, she's real, alright," says rock songwriter/musician turned music video
director, Lisa Maxwell, with a little more than a hint of mystery. As it happens,
Anna is the latest single from Lisa Maxwell's debut album, Select Vacancy, the clip
also marking her directing debut. Up-and-coming Benalla teen rocker Jasmine
Billingsley stars in the lead role.

The muse for the track and peculiar clip was "...someone once who visited my
hometown Benalla for a few months and became very unpopular with the locals," Lisa
carefully revealed in an interview with music website Access All Areas in 2005, and
insists that a frightening degree of truth lies behind "Anna's" adventures captured
in the music video:

"Then again, fact is stranger than fiction!"

Anna has so far received a big response on Lisa's official website and networking
websites MySpace and YouTube, where it is currently online for viewing. The clip is
released to Australian television this week.

Candid behind-the-scenes footage and outtakes from the video shoot will be released
later this year as part of Lisa's new iTunes video podcast, which is being produced
in conjunction with Melbourne-based podcasters Cracked Media, who are behind
Australia's first all-girl indie music podcast, the ever-popular The Bleeding Edge.

Select Vacancy (featuring the track Anna) is out now through Essential Music
Australia/Green Media/MGM Distribution and is available on Apple iTunes and all good
music retailers.
