Updated August 28th, 2008:  Our August Show was a real hit with the dynamic trio of Angela Hacker, James LeBlanc and special guest James' son, Dylan.  Performing before a sold-out crowd, the show was 90 minutes of pure talent as the audience enjoyed song after song of original tunes including numerous country music hits.  It was a great evening.  
Thanks so much!
