Inspiration

Over the last week, I've been really inspired musically. All musicians want their albums to touch people, to inspire them, and to speak to them. Well I purchased an album last week that did just that. Anders Osborne's "American Patchwork" album is an inspiring album. It's one I can't quit listening too. Everything about the album is great. The singing, the playing, the lyrics....I can't find one bad thing to say about it. Anders, one of New Orleans best, is such a soulful singer, and you can feel his passion through the songs. It's an album that makes me want to be a better singer, player, performer, and songwriter. It's the best album I've heard in YEARS. I know Anders from my time in Nashville, so it is a more personal album for me. I hope you check it out, and let the music change you! Check out Anders online at www.andersosborne.com.

Vision

Verse of the Day- "Where there is no vision, the people perish"- Proverb 29:18

I think this is a great verse for all of us. We must have a vision and goals of where we want to go. These visions and goals help push us to be the men and women we want to be.
