February Newsletter:
With 2013 in full swing, I've got LOTS of amazing things happening… especially throughout the month of February.
I'm sure everyone's getting prepped for the “love” holiday coming up. While many of you will be buying roses, chocolates, diamonds, cubic zirconia, and stuffed teddy bears, I'd like to ask you to save a bit of that money and put it towards another cause… (most of those chocolates will be left behind in the box anyway when your love realizes that they're filled with coconut, or worse)…
The “Country Fans Care for St. Jude Kids” organization will broadcast a special radiothon on Hitkicker 99.7 FM Central Virginia's Country starting Thursday, February 6, 2013, along with many other country radio stations in your area. Click HERE to “LIKE” the “Country Fans Care” Facebook Page. On Friday, February 7, I'll be on-air with Jay Lopez and Hitkicker 99.7 starting at 3pm to support “Country Fans Care for St. Jude Kids.” Listen online at www.hitkicker997.com.
St. Jude Children's Research Hospital works to to be the world leader in advancing the treatment and prevention of catastrophic diseases in children. At St. Jude Children's Hospital, NO CHILD IS TURNED AWAY BECAUSE OF INABILITY TO PAY. Please visitwww.StJude.org to contribute today.
In music news, my next single will be released in a matter of DAYS. Rusty and I were at Ravensworth Studios (check them out) in Scottsville, VA last week finishing up the final vocal and guitar tracks. The song is now in the hands of THE one-and-only KEVIN MCNOLDY (www.cphonicmastering.com) so that he can make it sparkle, shine, and blow out your speakers. Stay tuned for the newest Ashley McMillen radio single!
