CMW CD HONORED BY CD BABY
CD Baby chose "All Roads Lead Home
"to be in its "For
a Good Cause"
collection during
the week of March 2 - March 9.
Below is what CD Baby wrote about CMW:
"The CD Baby editorial staff hears
hundreds of albums every day and we
love your "CAROLINA MUSIC WAYS: All Roads Lead Home: A
Heritage
Sampler >From North Carolina's Yadkin Valley Region" CD
so much we're
going to include it in our upcoming "For a Good Cause"
collection...
Here is what our editors have to say
about this collection:
'Here is a fine collection of music in various styles
from some
generous artists who have big hearts...Proceeds go to a
variety of noble organizations that are fighting daily
to make our
world a better place for all.'"

CD RELEASE CELEBRATIONS A SUCCESS
The first musicians
photo on the right is of Rex and Ralph McGee
performing at our February CD release celebration
at Barnes & Noble Booksellers in Winston-Salem. A
standing-room-only crowd enjoyed a night of fabulous
bluegrass and bluegrass music.
The following photos
show the musicians who performed at the January CD
celebration at the Wilkes Heritage Museum in Wilkesboro.
We partnered with the Blue Ridge Music Hall of Fame for
this event. An enthusiastic audience of about 100
people enjoyed the first-rate musical program, which
included bluegrass by the Grashoppers, jazz by
Joe Robinson and friends, and blues by Danny
Wicker and Mel Jones and by Ron Hunter and Robbie
Carr.
The high level of
musicianship at both these events, and the willingness
of gifted area musicians to donate their time and
talents to "a good cause", underscore the point
that the Yadkin Valley region is blessed with gifted
heritage musicians who are dedicated to preserving the
rich musical legacy they've inherited. Kudos also
to the audiences at both events, who appreciate the
area's outstanding heritage music talent and who come
out to experience and support it.
