The Wabash Cafe

I had the opportunity this past Saturday night to take a little road trip and go visit the Elbow Inn & BBQ in Devil’s Elbow, MO. It’s just a little bit outside Rolla, and if you ever get a chance to go, you should. We had a blast. I didn’t get a chance to try the food (we were there after dinner), but I did get to enjoy the hospitality of the fine staff, and they made sure that we had a magnificent time. We were there for Holly’s Birthday Bash – a celebration of Holly “Boom Boom Valhalla” Rudolph’s birthday – and trust me, it was epic.

Okay, so other than the fact that you love me (you do, right?), why does this matter to you? Here’s why. While I was there, I got a chance to ask a dear friend of mine for a favor. Bernadette Holzer, better known to many of you as Beltana Spellsinger of Spellsinger, was gracious enough to say yes when I asked her to write, and sing, some harmonies and backup vocals on my upcoming project. I cannot begin to tell you how excited I am by this, as Beltana simply has one of the boldest and most beautiful voices I have ever heard, and her knack for creating enchanting harmonies has always touched my soul. An awesome bonus: she just happens to be one of the most wonderful people I’ve ever met. So, I’m simply honored that Bel is willing to join me in my efforts, and to help take some of my songs to the next level. If you’re not already familiar with her work, and I know a lot of you are, well then I know you’ll love her work just as much as I do.

I wish I could give you a time frame for how quickly I’ll have something out. I really want to share my work with you, but I’m learning as I go – and I want it to be right. I promise, as soon as I know a time frame, you’ll know.

Thanks for stopping in, until next time…
