It’s been a lovely, chaotic summer – the best kind. Here are a few gems that caught my eye (and ear) over the past month or so:
This wine:
…from a winery on the outskirts of this incredible city:
(I spent a little over a week in Switzerland, Florence and Venice last month. Needless to say, it was an inspiring trip.)
This anthem from the Zac Brown Band’s action-packed new album,Uncaged (give it a listen and you’ll understand what I mean):
This funky, new-ish song by British group Graffiti6:
This kick ass and deserved title that Houston just nabbed. And yeah, we already knew we were the coolest. Why?
This surprisingly moving performance by tenth place finisher Erika Van Pelt (at the Idols Live concert I caught in Dallas):
This crazy-cool local band that I was jazzed to interview for Houston magazine.
This Kelly Clarkson cover of my favorite band’s breakout single:
…and finally, this wonderful milestone that Country Universe –my country music home– recently hit. I couldn’t be more grateful to have found my way into the CU family three years ago.
