Friday Night 12/12/25 was, as predicted:  “One of those nights" that we'll remember for a long time.

Of course, the fun got started with Sarah Spain recording a Christmas song on WREG in the afternoon.  It's always a treat doing performances on TV, whether Live or recorded.  But back to the night.

After playing Live at The Tracks in November, Caitlin Cannon and I got in touch with  KP Hawthorn who is currently getting play on Sirius XM Outlaw Country.  Sunny Sweeney specifically has rolled out the welcome mate for KP, featuring her on “The Sunny Side of Life” just last week.  We put together a night with the two Americana acts and couldn't wait for the night to arrive, our last show of the year.

The two hours flew by as both artists and their respective accompanies lit up the tiny South Main Sounds stage.   This is what happens often in this room: A lot of authenticity and  plenty of smiling faces.  Adding to the evening were multiple trips to Earnestine and Hazels by the performers and thankfully only one for yours truly.  

Saturday was an unexpected treat as well, courtesy of Flyway Brewery, one of the new hot-spots for great tunes.  Childhood friend Jeff Cline was running sound as one of his acts, Aidan Osias was joined by The Narrows and Zoe Dominguez who shows so many signs of success.  My friend Brett Moore and I were talking about her love of punk music and we agreed that she does favor a Chrissie Hynde version of the genre.   by about 6 it was time to get home which precluded me from seeing Alexis Jade at Momma's which is .4 miles from home. If this seems ridiculous, remember, the side-door slashing, rear view mirror mashing carport can jump out at any time.

Will be travelling next week but look forward to another blog to keep y'all updated on the happenings!
