IBMA Nomination & a Sweet Sweepstakes Opportunity! 
I'm honored to report that I've been nominated for Female Vocalist of the Year by the International Bluegrass Music Association.
This nomination is such a sweet boost to my spirits! If you're a voting member of IBMA, my heartfelt thanks; four of our most recent recordings can be heard here as you consider the final ballot. (Look for the "Listen" links on the right.)
Here's another sweet thing: IBMA's World of Bluegrass sweepstakes, with great prizes that include VIP tickets to the Awards Show (Oct. 2 at the historic Ryman Auditorium) , plus a travel stipend, hotel rooms and free tickets for Bluegrass Fan Fest (Oct. 3-5). Click on the logo to enter.
Folk Music Alive & Vibrant in Canada!
I'm happy to report that folk music in Canada is alive and very, very well. Our recent visit to the Edmonton Folk Festival cemented this fact for me. We strolled through a crowd of 25,000 last weekend and performed on 3 of the 7 stages there. more>>
A great time was had by all of us - that includes our short stint in the "hula hoop pit" and Mark's dance with the frog ballerinas on stilts. (You know a frogs-on-stilts video is worth watching: see it here on YouTube!)
Meet My Youngest Fan!
She's a little older than this now, but here's a nice pic of my youngest fan. Ava actually attended my voice class at NashCamp last summer in utero! I'm delighted to report that "Friends for a Lifetime" is one of her favorite albums . . . The minute she hears "Go and Do the Same"/"Paul & Peter Walked"/"Your Presence is my favorite Gift" she listens intently. more>>
