Grammy Nominating Ballot News!
Today has been a pretty exciting day for me, receiving news
that my CD
"The Blonde Flame Sessions" has been put on the Grammy
Nominating
ballot for consideration in the Contemporary Folk Category
for the
50th annual Grammy Awards (see the attached nomination
sheet Category
69 entry 049).
The June 2006 release features 3 tracks produced by The
Tubes
legendary guitarist Bill Spooner; and include songs that
have been
picked up by Showtime for an upcoming movie as well as the
American
Idol catalog.
As I first began writing the album my mother passed away.
Love, loss,
and rebirth became my emotional themes for this project,
and to have
the musical interpretation of these experiences given
consideration in
the same company as many of my songwriting idols is an
incredible
honor!
You have no idea how much I appreciate everyone who has
come out to my
shows, emailed, called and taken the time out of your busy
schedules
to support my projects!
Hugs,
