Atlanta Has been Rocked


We have left home and will be on the road a total of about 15 days. There are shows, recordings, hockey games, and hanging out with music industry peeps that will be going on. It's going to be a little crazy.

This past weekend we were invited to perform at the National Youth Workers Convention in Atlanta. We had the pleasure of performing in the "Big Room" right before the main meeting. It's a little bit of a tough spot, because people are still trickling in and it's early in the morning. A special shout out to Captain Bobby Parker and his wife Nicole for showing up extra early so as to not miss us. It was either that or they just wanted really good seats for Dr. Robert Epstein. Either way, they were winners that day.

Saturday night, we performed at the Late Night Comedy show in the Marriott Marquis in downtown Atlanta, with Taylor Mason (www.taylormason.com) and Jeff Civillico (www.jeffcivillico.com). There were well over 2000 youth leaders in attendance, and it was a blast! The High-5 was brought back, and Canada was sent a message about their geese.

Sunday night we had the pleasure of performing at The Salvation Army's Atlanta Temple Corps. I can't describe to you how fun this show was. Some had seen us before, some had not, and even though there were over 130 people there, there's something about performing for Salvation Army folks that feels like performing for family. Our good friend Dan Kulp opened for us and as always was awesome to not only work with, but hang out with. A special thanks to the Atlanta Temple Corps, Bernie Dake and the Territorial Music Department, and Major Art Penhale and the Territorial Youth Department for making it happen.

We have begun the recording process. Expect at least 1 or 2 blogs everyday to update. We are working on getting different artists to guest such as Adam Agee of Stellarkart, Jennifer Knapp, and maybe Leigh Nash of Sixpence None the Richer.
