May 16, 5-7 PM
Redding City Hall
777 Cypress Ave
Redding, CA
We are celebrating in Redding this week -- It's Rodeo Week --Yeehaw!! This week also marks the opening of the Summer Art Exhibit at Redding City Hall.
The CIty of Redding will host a reception on Thursday evening May 16th, 2013, from 5-7 PM -- meet the artists, enjoy complimentary refreshments and original, local music from two Cottonwood duos.
We're looking forward to singing some new tunes from our upcoming CD and singing "The Redding Song" in the heart of the city that we love.
Our friends Diana and Steve Wallis are a little bit country a little bit R and B and a lot of heart and soul, with tunes like "There's No Such Thing as a Free Goat" and "The Cowboy Flies Away." Their energetic performances include dynamic vocals, smokin' guitar licks, harmonica and mandolin.
Hope to see you there!

The Redding Song
Over on Redding.com, blogger Marc Beauchamp posed a challenge --
".....a contest to come up with a telling or funny acronym that spells R-E-D-D-I-N-G."
I call it a Dream Assignment for a songwriter who loves Redding:
R
is for the river and the trails that run beside her
E
is for the eagles raising hope and flying higher
D
is for downtown dining:
Art
and music, beer and wine-ing
Another
D is for diversions
Recreational
excursions
Golfing,
skiing, fishing, hiking
Gardening,
boating, swimming, cycling
Fly
kites, tie flies,
Sun
shines
Most
days of the year
Anything
you like to do outside
(That’s
legal)
You
can do it here
I
is for infernal heat that keeps the wimps away
N
is for night lights on the Bridge at Turtle Bay
G
is for the Gem of Northern California
Angry? Bitter? This Valentine's 4 U
If you're looking for a sweet, sentimental love song to celebrate this day of romance, keep looking. But if you like your Valentine's Day tunes with a dose heartbreak and twist of revenge, then go ahead and help yourself to "Heart Shaped Stones."
I wrote this song many years ago - and it's still one of my favorites to sing. Our kids think it's kind of creepy and that's part of what I like about it.So whether you're happily single, looking for love, or celebrating the day with your One and Only, please hop on over to our website for a free download of "Heart Shaped Stones." Click here: Heart Shaped Stones at StillMarried.Net Hope you get chocolate and champagne and NOT stones. Unless, of course, they're diamonds. All Aboard for Redding's Cultural Cruise
