2/10/2010: Upcoming Benefits

Hey everyone... I hope you’re all doing well and still keeping warm. It’s still a little on the chilly side down here, but I guess that's just my blood thinning out on me, lol. I've been working hard at writing and have written some more great songs recently! Besides that I've been practicing singing and playing the guitar a lot, keeping the vocal chords in shape. I'm super excited for the show coming up in Canada. Again I'm honored to be taking part in the Ronald McDonald fundraiser in Red Deer, Alberta. This, I think, will mark my 6th year of attending and it’s been amazing every single time. This year especially will be very exciting because they're gonna start laying the foundation for the new Ronald McDonald House in Red Deer! It's nice to know that I will have a small part in the creation of that. Something else that just recently came in that I snatched up, is a show happening in Phoenix, Arizona on the 19th of March. I was contacted by a very enthused Phoenix based singer/entertainer Matt Farris. Matt tried his luck on season 6 of Nashville Star and since then has been keeping himself very busy from what he's told me, performing all over Phoenix and surrounding areas. He gave me a call and expressed the fact that he was a big supporter of mine and that he would love to have me be a part of a benefit show to bring awareness to the Phoenix HomeBased Youth Services. I told Matt I would do whatever I could to arrange to get there and thankfully it's been made possible for me to attend and help out, so I'm really looking forward to that. If any of you are in the Phoenix area during that time, I'd love to see you out at the show to support this cause and work towards a difference. I'll be doing an acoustic performance and Matt and his band, Dirty Country, will be performing as well, so it'll be a real fun night! Info on this show will be added to my website shortly for all of you to view. Anyways, I'll sign off for now but have a great day and I'll talk to y'all soon. God Bless!
