A Note From Nancy Cook
JANUARY 2012
A HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL MY FRIENDS!!
First off, and most importantly, I hope that each and every one of you reading this can cite events and people to be grateful for in your lives this past year, and that you are looking at more good things to come in 2012.
My updated winter 2012 schedule page is now up on this website. I am extremely grateful for the gigs I am currently doing, some fun beachy joints here on the island...and also a number of private parties, house concerts, and corporate events over the fall and holidays. I have also had a number of opportunities to provide my music in the area of service, and frankly, those gigs have been the most satisfying of all. My life continues to be full of blessings. I count my fabulous guitar students among my blessings as well, and I am looking forward to resuming those relationships this summer.
If you are interested in finding out more about hosting a house concert, feel free to email me directly. I would be happy to discuss ideas with you about dovetailing any fund raising efforts you may be involved in--for a special cause--with a house concert. I did a few of these this past winter, and it was very satisfying for all of us. My email address is now: nancy@nancycookmusic.com and you are welcome to contact me anytime with questions about my gigs, lessons or my music in general.
I will remain on South Padre Island till the end of January, then I wll be on the road until March 13. My SPI winter/spring gig base continues to be PADRE-RITAVILLE, a fun new casual dining and music venue opened up by my good pals Micheal and Cathy Laferty. Be sure and stop by if you get to Padre this January, and also in March, April and early May. I will play Tuesday nights from 6-9 PM. Micheal will play most of the other nights.
Again, I am blown away by the support you all have shown for my efforts as an artist. Thank you!
And thanks to so many of you for taking my new CD home with you. For those of you I didn't get to see face to face...
You can--
I crammed 15 songs on the album. (There's 14 listed, but you get a bonus track!) I went the environmental route, so the packaging is minimal. You will find all the lyrics and liner notes right here on the website, rather than on paper. Thanks to all of you who have relentlessly nudged me to make just one more CD. And thanks also, to all of you who have applauded my efforts to minimize the carbon footprint of this latest project. Hope to see you all in the coming months.
Gratefully,
Nancy Cook
