Hey everyone! I hope you are all staying warm avoiding the snow! I just wanted to make a quick post and update you all on what’s been going on!
On January 7th, my family and I drove into New York. I was invited to perform the National Anthem for the Professional Bull Riders (http://www.pbr.com/en/bfts/schedule.aspx) at their event in Madison Square Garden. When I performed for them on Saturday night, the event was completely sold out! Just remembering the roar of the crowd still gives me goosebumps! Then, on Sunday morning I had a photo shoot with Kent Miller who is an amazing photographer and Joanna Dee, who made me look great for all of the pictures! (http://www.joanna-dee.com/, http://www.kentmillerstudios.com/#/portrait) After the photo shoot, we headed back to MSG for the Professional Bull Riders afternoon event! It was an absolutely amazing weekend. I can’t wait to work with Kent and Joanna again, and get back to my PBR events!
After our time in New York, my family and I got right back on the road and headed for Nashville, TN. We arrived Tuesday morning and couldn’t wait to explore the city! I stopped for hair and make-up at Breon Hair Salon in Nashville on Tuesday afternoon, and everything was fabulous. Rachel and the rest of the staff were extremely easy to work with, and got me all dolled up. My hair lasted perfectly for my show later that night with at the Hotel Indigo in Nashville. I got to play a few tunes with the Mulch Brothers who wrote “Don’t Waste Your Time On Lonely” for my latest CD. Another surprise that night was getting to meet every single writer that had a song on my CD! It was great to get to meet all of them, and be able to perform their songs for them. The next morning, Wednesday the 11th, my family and I set out for the General Jackson Showboat bright and early. There, I was filming an episode of RFD-TV’s Shotgun Red Show with 2 other artists. The episode will premier on Monday, February 27th on RFD-TV, so be sure to catch it if you can! It was such a cool experience filming the show and learning about the production process. On Thursday, I headed back to Breon Hair Salon! ( http://www.breonhairsalon.com/) Breon, who did my hair and make-up, had been on tour with Reba McEntire for a year and a half and just got done doing hair and make-up for Toby Keith’s “Red Solo Cup” music video! She was amazing to work with and gave my mom and I lots of styling tips which will come in handy this summer. After Breon got me looking good, my mom, dad and I headed to Music Circle in Nashville were I had a few private showcases and meetings that went really well! All in all, it was a very successful trip and we are already looking to go back in April!
Now, my family and I are in Hershey PA for the PSACF Convention to book some shows!
Remember, some pics from Nashville, New York, and the Fair Convention will be posted soon so keep checking back!
