The Christmas Season is coming on fast. Gifts are already being bought, Holiday movies are playing, and Christmas Music is already playing! It’s humbling to see my Acoustically Christmas album continue to be a perennial best-seller.

Songwriting With the DAWG Pound Kids 

I am SO proud of the brand-new song I got to write with Jude and his classmates at the Homer Baptist DAWG Pound program today, “I Want To Dance Dance Dance”. We wrote it, on the spot, in like 10 minutes. They were incredible. Blew me away.

There should be A LOT of very proud parents out there…your kids DID this!

Highway 98 Video Update 

Me and Caleb hit the road (literally) yesterday for some additional video shooting for the upcoming "Highway 98" music video. Lot of scenic shots...barns, hay bales, tractors and such. And we met a good many folks who live and work up and down 98. Good folks. Friendly and not camera shy at all. :) Held some signs for us as we hit record.
