Once again  Don Talley of BLACK MOUNTAIN MUSIC SCENE and other community members are throwing White Horse a BENEFIT party!

Al & Amy will perform first up
at 7:30pm. They'll be joined
by Levi Douglas, Jimmy Landry, Doug & Darcy Orr!

Come on out  and support this fantastic venue. Kim & Bob of the White Horse have done so much for this community - it's time to give back.

Among dozens of other benefit concerts, Bob & Kim also donated their space for Al & Amy's "Asheville Humane Society" Benefit Concert last October, which helped raise nearly $3,000 for the critters!

NEWSLETTER ~ January/2011
Hello Everyone,

We hope you had a wonderful holiday season with friends & family!

We had a fantastic time - both here at home, and on the road. Unfortunately, December's big storm kept us from celebrating with family on Christmas Day.  We had to hurry back to the mountain-top before we couldn't!  (These steep roads are serious business.)

But despite the dangers and hassles of winter storms, we thoroughly enjoy the snow that falls on our mountains. Sometimes it's gentle and lovely.  Sometimes it's fierce and awe-inspiring.  Either way, the snow is very conducive to snuggling (and gluten free brownies ;-)  It's actually snowing again! We woke to a lovely blanket of white and came back from our last hike with the doggies wonderfully frosted.  (And to think, we weren't going to have a repeat of last winter...yeah, right.)

Since Amy's birthday is on the 10th, we tend to keep things rolling here a little bit longer. Why not?  When we put up a tree, it just stays up that much longer.  Keep it festive. Keep on celebrating. Life is short, eat dessert first. (Or in Amy's case, eat something with garlic first. ;-)

We finally have some of our new music on-line now. (For those of you who only download these days!) 

We also have a few fun shows coming up -- the beginning of our High in the Blue Ridge tour -- in Aberdeen, NC -- in Great Falls, VA - and several other DC/MD area venues. Bringing the mountains to you ;-)  We'll continue to cook up shows in other areas to celebrate this new release.

In addition to full-length CD release concerts, we'll also be performing with other friends at a concert to Benefit the WHITE HORSE BLACK MOUNTAIN this January. If you live in the Asheville/WNC area, please consider coming to this show!!  Wonderful venue, wonderful cause. Details in the left column.

HIGH IN THE BLUE RIDGE!

High in the Blue Ridge CD
DOWNLOADS
now Available for
"High in the Blue Ridge"

on CD Baby, iTUNES,

Amazon, et al.

For those of you who
prefer to download tunes
on the internet...
The new CD is finally
available on-line. :-)

Physical CDs are still available from our on-line store, of course!  We shipped out quite a few for the holidays.  So THANK YOU everyone for sharing this new music and celebrating with us!

We're also happy to announce that we have worked out an agreement with our wonderful long-time label & good friends at Maggie's Music for "brick & mortar" distribution.  So, for those of you who still prefer the physical CD to a digital download, you very well may find High in the Blue Ridge at a local gift-shop.  If you have a favorite store which you think would be a good fit for us, (which stocks Indie-Acoustic music like ours already), please let us know.
