We can hardly believe it, but we’ve been invited back to the Grand Ole Opry – less than three months after our debut there! We’ll be playing this Friday, Sept. 9 at 7 pm. Tickets are available at opry.com and of course the show will be broadcast on WSM 650 AM in Nashville as well as via the Opry’s site.
After we played there in June, we all looked at each other and said that we hoped we’d get to do it again sometime soon. I think we were hoping for sometime in a year or so. To think that it is happening this fast is just crazy.
More craziness … we were the 7th video in last week’s CMT Pure 12 Pack as voted by fans. Thank you so much for your support! When our video wasn’t number 12, we figured we just hadn’t made it … number 7 is mindblowing! We still need your votes to stay in the top 12, as well as to see if we can get any higher. You can vote as often as you like, Fridays through Thursdays. The new 12 Pack is revealed each Friday evening. Vote here – a lot. Maybe 50 times a day. This is one instance where we highly encourage ballot stuffing. ;)
We were also in the top 50 of all videos viewed on CMT.com. We came in at number 34, right in between Darius Rucker and Shania Twain. In fact, pretty much every name on that list is a big name from a traditional record label. We’re very proud to have performed that well and appreciate all of the time you’ve spent watching the video and passing it along to friends. If you want to see it again, you can do so right here.
We also learned today that our Mountain Stage performance from last year will be rebroadcast on NPR stations this weekend, beginning 9/9. Check your local listings to find out when it will air: http://www.mountainstage.org/mtnstageaffiliates.aspx. Of course, you can also listen online at NPR.org beginning September 9.
All right, that feels like a lot of news for one little update! Thanks, as always, for your support.
