It's that time!!  Tomorrow morning at 10:00am will mark the beginning of tracking in the studio on my new album.  I am SO excited about this, I cannot even tell you!  The first stage will be tracking on the first four songs.  The finished album will include 2 songs that have been previously recorded ("Whisper" and "I Call It Love"), but will sound completely different!  The 3rd song is an original "Play", and the 4th is an original "I Have Fun" that Dennis has helped rework to fit the record.

Dennis Money is best known for producing "Legendary Country" and boxed set for legendary singer himself Moe Bandy (winner of a CMA, 4 ACMs, 1 American Video Award, with 5 gold albums, 40 top 10s, and 10 1's), Trick Pony, Pirates of the Mississippi, and in the last 3 months has been privileged to work with legends Jerry Reed, Marty Stewart, and the now late Porter Wagoner.  He is also President and owner of independent record label SweetSong Nashville.
