Songwriter's Depot July Show Announcement
Updated July 23rd, 2010: It was a warm night outside but we enjoyed a cool show inside with the July 2010 Songwriter's Depot show at the Old Country Store. We started the show off with a bang with little nine year old Presley Connor's comedy routine. It was a real hit and she's a doll. Presley is the daughter of show producer Shane Connor. OLD COUNTRY STORE in CASEY JONES VILLAGE Read more about this month's guests:
Our three fantastic songwriters, Blaine Larsen, Jamie Teachenor and Joe White, put on a great show with their incredible talents as songwriters, singers and musicians. It was amazing. Songwriter Joe West was accompanied by his son, Zach, on his hit song "American Ride".
