April 13, 2009--Can I just say, what another FABULOUS night at the Rural Grit Happy Hour Tonight! Four women singer-songwriters were featured--Cheri Woods, Abigail Henderson, Amy Farrand, and Kasey Rausch. Ladies and Gentlemen--honesty tumbled out of their lyrics and their voices carried their truths through the air! For me, each one of them is divine. I love listening to Cheri's verbiage coil its way through my brain. Abigail belts out music straight from her soul into yours. Amy has always been able to send shivers up my spine. Kasey leaves me laughing and crying at the same time.
In true Rural Grit style, tasty pallet cleansers "inbetween" each act was provided by Rural Grit All Stars--Kc, Mark, David, Garrett, Daniel and Sarah. The evening ended in Jubilee fashion with Humble and High Steppin' Country Girl. (and as a special treat, Noah was right in there singing, strummin' and stompin.)
In addition, we gathered a nice sum of money tonight to support our friends who are fighting breast cancer...gotta support the ta-tas folks!
