Haiti – 18 months after
In early August, I had the opportunity to visit Haiti. It was an amazing journey, and also a very sobering one. To say the experience was other-worldly is understating it; there are no words.

Junior Brown – Catch him if you can!
Junior Brown (above), tears it up at The Kessler Theatre in Oak Cliff, Dallas in June, playing his guit-steel, a custom six-string and steel guitar combo. Having never heard his music, I took a chance and went to see him, and was the better for it – he did not disappoint! If he ever shows up in your part of town, do yourself a favor and buy a ticket!
Gladys & Maybelle
I met Gladys & Maybelle on a trip to Nashville in May. What caught my eye were their outfits, and I took a quick photo. It turned out to be a really small world after all, when I found out they were from Ft. Worth! They invited me see them in Ft. Worth, and I was impressed by their beautiful harmonies, and poignant, and sometimes funny, lyrics.
An act to catch for sure!

Kelly Willis at The Kessler
In May, I had an opportunity to see Kelly Willis play at The Kessler Theatre. Never having heard her music, I took a chance going, and she played an intimate set, allowing her to showcase her talent and voice.
