In late 2016 at the age of only 14, Kentucky musician Will Muse decided he wanted to use his music in a positive way. Combining his passion for helping others with his love for music, Will founded Music for Wishes, an annual fundraiser for the Make-A-Wish® Foundation, which he planned and organized with the help of family, friends, committee members, and a supportive community. Recently, the 2019 event was held in Will's hometown of Somerset, Kentucky at the Center for Rural Development, raising $35,247, topping the previous year's donations. In just three short years Music For Wishes has generated more than $85,000 for Make-A-Wish®.

Serenbe Playhouse will present the musical SHENANDOAH, starring American Idol Winner Taylor Hicks and Broadway and The X Factor finalist Rachel Potter.

A theatrical journey of heartbreak and ultimately hope in a fight for human rights will erupt out of an actual Civil War reenactment with over 100 soldiers, canons, horses and with an all-star cast of singer/musicians in a fight for Freedom and Love!

“Fight On” from SHANNON SANDERS and the Nashville Urban Choir is a resolution anthem. The song is being purposefully released on Feb 8th, 2019, in honor of and in celebration for Black History Month, which lands at that moment in the new year when commitment to new intentions begins to wane and the reality of the work required to push past old habits sinks in. “Fight On,” written and performed by SANDERS (vocalist, songwriter, producer, musical director, philanthropist, and program director of Nashville's 102.1 The Ville), features a rousing neo-gospel performance from the Nashville Urban Choir. Today, Billboard is premiering the video for “Fight On,” calling the song “powerful” and noting its ability to “uplift and inspire.”

Stephen Kellogg is set to release Objects in the Mirror on November 23, 2018. Produced by fellow Americana singer-songwriter Will Hoge, the 12-track set was recorded over the course of a single week in Nashville, TN and tracked live, keeping the results intact with minimal overdubs. Ahead of release, American Songwriter featured album track “High Highs, Low Lows” yesterday calling it “a slowly building folk anthem with chiming piano, gentle pedal steel and a raw, vulnerable vocal performance from Kellogg.” Of writing the song, Kellogg offers, “It's is a bit of an ode to perseverance. To finding one's way through hard times (of which there are plenty), and also having the sense to recognize happiness when it's in front of us. Like a lot of people, I'm trying to make sense of some of the fractures that have occurred in my life. Music helps with that.” “High Highs, Low Lows” can be heard/shared at the links below, and Objects in the Mirror is available for pre-order now via the Kellogg Family Store. Kellogg has also announced an extensive U.S. solo tour throughout the rest of 2018, to be followed by a full-band run next spring.
