First, We want to start by saying thank you to all of you for supporting us and voting for us in the initial nomination! Matt entered the band in just 2 categories and the panel of the Josie Music Awards nominated them for 2 other categories, making that 4 categories the band was nominated in!

Thank you to our wives for coming along and supporting us through this wild music career! Thank you to Matt’s sister and brother n law Tiffany and Paul for flying in from Florida to be there at the awards show and supporting us always! Thank you to Matt’s friend and Fiancé Marvin and Nikki for traveling from Kentucky and suprising us at the award show!
Thank you to the The Josie Music Awards for having us out and the panel for seeing the hard work we do and nominating us for 4 categories! What you guys do will never go unnoticed! So appreciative!

We take pride in our work and what we do to entertain and create a great show for you all and put music we think you will enjoy! Being nominated was a huge accomplishment for us, being our first year with The Josie Music Awards!

We spent this weekend exploring the great town of Nashville, watching tons of other singer songwriters out there and seeing what all the town has to offer. We had the best time and being invited to the Grand Ole Opry as a 4 time Nominee in the 10th annual Josie Music Awards is an amazing feeling!

The Grand Ole Opry was beautiful!

We did not bring home any hardware, but that doesn’t take away from the fact we were nominated AND got to go be apart of the amazing event! We learned so much and have many new set goals to push for and new ideas! We are humble in knowing we were part of a small group that was nominated compared to the amount of applicants! Very few got nominated and invited to the event but we were blessed to be one of the few nominated in FOUR categories and invited to the Grand Ole Opry!

Stay tuned for what we have planned and in the works for 2025!! This was the first trip to the Grand Ole Opry but we promise you it won’t be our last! We will walk on that stage soon!😎

And thankfully nobody had to pull Matt off the stage 🤪😂

Who else do you go to for a fresh cut and beard touch up but one of the best from the hometown? Hammy J's Barbershop is more than just a place to get your hair cut! As I get ready to head down to Nashville for the awards ceremony it was a no-brainer. The decor takes you back and Joe is one of the best humans I know!

What an absolute blast we had at the Ohio Festival and Events Association event in Sandusky this weekend! I can’t say enough about the staff and their top notch hospitality!

I hope all that attended enjoyed what we had to offer and look forward to continuing conversations/relationships that we made over the weekend!

As always thank you to our existing fan base for being some of the absolute best we could ever ask for and we look forward to expanding in the 2024 season!
