I would like to say thank you to my music and industry friends- for your contributions to keeping the blues alive. Thank you to all the fans of the arts- I am one of them. There is nothing like a full house, and whether you are on the stage or in the crowd, the gift of music lifts our spirits and keeps us telling the story - together. Thank you to anyone who takes the time to listen to- and believe in- this album. I has been a long time coming, and I hope you like it!
