Merritt Center Saturday October 10, 2009

We will be performing at the Merritt Center in Payson, AZ on Saturday, Oct. 10 for their annual October Fest. This is a Fundraising event for returning veterans.

“As more and more members of the armed forces return from war zones, it has become clear that many bring with them potentially severe emotional problems. Re-entry to routine lives and family situations can be complicated by the realities of post traumatic stress. The Returning Veterans Program offers a unique alternative for vets to encounter techniques to ease the transition. The Merritt Center can be a place of learning, healing, and renewal. The program requires no fee for vets to participate, and instead relies on the support of caring donors – like you – to bring this program to life.”

I urge everyone to go to www.MerrittCenter.org for more information about the program, the event and directions. The donation entry fee is $45.

Please help in this worthwhile cause!

Take a drive up to Payson this weekend –get some fresh air and listen to some great music. Other performers include – Sustainabillies, Steve & Robin, Storyteller, and more.

On this, their debut release, Dream Chemistry blends jazz, progressive rock and country, with Celtic and classical influences to bring you ‘Organic Jazz.’ A great mix of radio friendly songs and musician oriented compositions, Dream Chemistry takes the listener on a spiritual journey.

This self titled release contains 11 original tracks plus 2 bonus mixes. The disc includes guest appearances by violinist, Louis Lamp, who also co-wrote the track ‘Are You Ready’ which appears on the CD.
