Hey Everyone!  Hope this finds everyone doing well and having a great week so far:)  Darin and I decided to take a little road trip this past weekend and we found ourselves in one of our most favorite places….Nashville, TN.  What were we doing?  Well, we actually went out to have an interview with Kyle Cantrell one of the voices of Bluegrass Junction on Sirius/XM.  That part of the trip was awesome, but just as he always does God had his hand in the making of another opportunity for our music and ministry.  Turned out that Kyle Cantrell had a family member pass away over the weekend and Darin and I ended up having to stay an extra day.   Of course we didn’t mind at all because we were able to visit with several booking agents, IBMA headquarters, and go back down memory lane as we made a stop by the Opryland Hotel (where Darin proposed to me).    

In The Opryland Hotel

As we made a day of it at the Opryland Hotel Darin and I knew that WSM 650am was also located inside of this huge venue.  Darin wanted to stick around in order to give the voice of WSM, Mr. Eddie Stubbs, one of our new projects.  As 7:00pm approached Darin and I were walking through the hotel when Eddie Stubbs came walking towards us.  He recognized us right off and stopped to chat.  Little to our surprise, he asked us if we would like to be live at 8:00 on WSM and play some of our new recording.  Without hesitation Darin responded, “yes” immediately.  So to fill you in, we were broadcast in 38 different States and some parts of Canada in a matter of 1 hr.  With no intentions of even being around on Monday night, Darin and I were beside ourselves in excitement at the opportunity and door God had opened for us once again.

When Tuesday morning approached, Darin and I woke up early and headed out to the Sirius/XM station to meet up with Kyle Cantrell.  We taped a session with Kyle called Track By Track, that will take place the first time on Feb 17th.  This show is set up for artists like us who have just released or are getting ready to release a new project.  It’s a very detailed interview that goes through each song on our CD and allows the listeners to hear the dedication and work we have put into the making of the CD.  It is also a chance to get to know us on an even more personal level in the topics we discuss as Kyle asks us questions.  This too was a huge opportunity for Darin and I since the new CD is scheduled to be released January 18th and the CD release party is coming up on the 22nd of January.  If you plan on purchasing tickets for the CD release party you may want to do so as soon as possible because they are going FAST!  We’d love to see you all there and be able to catch up….so get tickets while they last.
