Just a reminder: our acclaimed monthly Oat Songwriter Showcase
is held on the second Wednesday of each month. "The Oatcase" is
held at Nashville's Commodore Grille. and is now in its eighth year.
Comin' up Wednesday, February 8th: Garry Jackson & Todd Elgin.

Speaking of Garry, he has just returned to Tennessee after spending a
few months up in Canada. He'll be continuing work on his upcoming
Wild Oats Records CD, due for release in Spring 2012. Steve Haggard
is producing, Andrew Hooker is engineering.

Steve and Andrew have just finished an album project for the Swedish
band, Roger Westblom & The In-Laws. The group was here in Music
City recently to record. The album is called Back To Nashville.

And the always-busy Mr. Haggard has begun work on his next CD, set
for release in May 2012. Look for a single in early March.

Both Steve Haggard and Garry Jackson will be performing at the 
Belfast Nashville Songwriter Festival in Northern Ireland at the end
of February... along with Nanci Griffith, Clint Black and others.

Meanwhile, our next Oat sampler CD is due any week now. Among
the artists will be excellent Arkansas singer/songwriter Ashlee Choate.

What's comin' up in the future, you ask? (Okay, you didn't actually
ask... but we'll tell you anyway.) As always, we have a whole bunch 
of irons in the fire. There are a couple of European tours in the works;
a new CD release from Kimberly King; the long-awaited live CD from
Steve Haggard, Joel Alan Lehman & The Nashville All-Stars, and a lot
more. So check back with us often.
