Dear ,

Welcome to my 55th newsletter!
I'm freshly back from vacation with John... whew, I highly recommend down-time for everyone! 
 
(best boogie boarding EVER)
 
Now autumn is falling (yep I really said that:)) with winter on its heels. It's important for all voices to keep throats warm and immune systems rocking. Watch overeating as the light wanes...your voice needs your body to reserve plenty of energy to stay healthy. Speaking of voices...

      Karoline Rhett was #3 artist featured by Reverbnation in its top 5 artists, October 15th - Oct 21st! Congratulations, girl.. you so deserve it!
       
                  I love Karoline in that hat!
       
      PCG (Premiere Career Guidance) now has an EPK . It's very good at explaining what sets this artist development company apart, with interviews by founder Bernard Porter and several of us who work with their clients. I am very proud to teach voice for this company I've come to love!
       
      Billy Devereaux (The Singing Mechanic) has a comedy show pilot video that has now attracted more than 60,000 views. I was his guest artist and after the skit sang 'One Way Ticket'... it was a blast:) Billy has been my vocal student, production client, co-writer, master mechanic and oh yeah, he's my brother!

      Daniel Panetta gave a special guest performance at the Celebration of the Arts in Newmarket Ontario. 
       
      West Virginia artist Kelsie May recorded a wonderful acoustic version a song I wrote with Thomas Cain and JD Martin for our friend Larrie Londin years ago. Kelsey and guitarist Britton Cameron brought a unique touch to 'Passing By' to benefit an upcoming anti-bullying rally. She also covered 'True Colors' for this event... singing like it was her song!
       
      Kelsie hanging out with an encouraging Tom T Hall
       
      Jordyn Pepper has a cool acoustic 'take away' video" on her song "Back To My Roots" with Hank Jr's guitarist Jason Roberts. Beautiful place to rock out!
       
      Kelsey Klingensmith performed at the opening of Susan G Komen Race for the Cure in Nashville in October. She will be joining the Sioux City Symphony for their Christmas Spectacular Concert Dec. 14th. Kelsey is everywhere!
       
      Jeannie McPherson did a concert in the park show 'Best Kind of Love' in Wenachee, Wa. I am so proud for Jeannie, she has overcome so much to become the artist she is.
       
      Karrin Dignoti got a fabulous review for her role as Fiona in Omaha, Nebraska production of "Brigadoon". "Terrific solo work", etc... love it!!
       
      Riley Roth's single "Innocence Lost", which she co-wrote with Tom Paden and Eddie Kilgallon, got a great review from "Got Country", and 4 out of 5 stars. Tom Paden produced, I was vocal producer. I remember we all had a good feeling about it when we left the studio that day!
       
      Dakota Bradley has been back in the studio with Byron Gallimore...hearing him in pre-production vocal lessons tells me this project is going to be even more incredible than his last one!

      I was on the panel at a PCG Pro Workshop event with multi-platinum producer "Ford" and Britton Cameron. We had some absolutely amazing artist attendees! Observing and giving feedback was pure joy for us and we thank everyone who performed.
