Wow what a year 2008 was for CWB. Martin (Rhythm Guitar) left CWB and we saw the additions of JC (Rhythm Guitar) and Doc (Bass). We were very busy as the full band at the Providence Farm Hoedown, Luxton Fall Fair and others. As a duo, Darla and Karen made the rounds of the farmers markets playing Luxton Station Market, James Bay Market, Colwood Market and Metchosin Farmers’ Market. The highlight of the year was our involvement with the Providence Farm Hoedown – a fundraiser to enable to folks at Providence Farm to continue their good work.
Sept 2008 saw Darla and Karen headed to Nashville for the first time. Wow. What a place. We attended the NSAI Songposium – er, what’s that you ask? Well a conference for songwriters. Everything from how to write to how to sing, play guitar, record and market your songs to publishing companies. We learned a ton. Still don’t think we’ve truly absorbed it all. Trips to the Grand Ole Opry, Country Music Hall of Fame and honky tonking…Yeehaw!
2009 is shaping up to be a busy year of performances and much time planned to songwrite!
