Welcome to this months news letter! Happy New Year! Thanks to all of you who supported the various acts I' involved with through last year and also thanks to those of you who donated via the 'virtual busker' on the site and I hope you enjoyed the special CD I put together for you. That offers now closed so here's a new one.... For each donation receeved I'll send a specially recorded mp3. Each one'll be unique, if you have a specific request for a number you know I do, I can record a special version of that, otherwise take pot luck, you know it'll be authentic blues! To donate just use click on the "virtual busker" guitar case on my home page or on my iacmusic website... http://www.broad.ology.org.uk or http://iacmusic.com/andybroad and you'll receive you mp3 by email. *IAC Review* I got a great little review of my song "Every Penny" at IAC music last month... ""Ohhhh yeah ... nice and bouncy ... and bluesy ... and just down right good ... You can tell when a craftsman is not only making a piece of art ... but when he is enjoying his work during the process ... labor becomes play ... and the creation shines ever so brightly ... The sound is not just sound ... but a vehicle to carry the inner smile of the creator to the outer receptor of the listener and travel all the way through and back out again ... only leaving behind a little piece of that art for the listener to recall and enjoy many times over ... such is the case with this thoroughly great tune ... Keep 'em coming Andy " - Sam Cat IAC Music. Listen to the song here http://iacmusic.com/songs.aspx?SongID=56234&ArtistID=82968 *Giglist* Gigwise the first couple of weeks of the year have been quiet but the 'action' starts this Saturday with trip to Essex....
