The last few months have been filled with airplanes and sky miles and shaking hands and meeting people . Playing the name game, so I can remember what I am afraid the good Lord didn't gift me with, I never forget a face, but I can never remember a name! In trying to prepare myself for all this travel and music, I don't think I could really prepare myself at all. But every single day I find that no matter what happens, good or bad, with our "single" or all the ups and downs of being "new" I am still just so grateful to have an audience. People who believe in Leah and I, and are willing to invest in our dream.
When I was a teenager, and barely a teenager, an artist named MC Potts came to our Wal-Mart in Lucedale, MS and played on a flatbed truck with her big beautiful tour bus shining right behind her. I met her bus driver "Bud" with my mom and dad, told him I was aspiring 13 year old country singer & he graciously offered us tickets to fan fair. I begged my daddy to drive me to Nashville. I remember pulling up to the fairgrounds, and seeing Tony Brown walking around backstage and thinking if I could just shake his hand, or hang out around that long table of food now known to me as "catering" long enough something might happen! Fan Fair, is now CMA Fest, and Leah and I have the opportunity as artists to participate. I know it's gonna be hot, and humid... but I just wonder what little girl might be there just like me years ago, waiting to catch a glimpse of someone who might look at her and think she's special.
One of the amazing things about Country Music is that it truly is a community of artists. What format in the world has a gathering of every artist, old. new. platinum... or not... in one place... for one week.
If you are in Nashville next week... I hope we see you there.

Você vive em um mundo, cheio de ideias e idealizações, eu não vivo neste mundo, apenas procuro entender o que algumas pessoas escolheram para viver, pelo que eu entendi, você tem sonhos que pretende conquistar através da musica.
Bjs!
