STRUM MAGAZINE and GUY GILCHRIST Celebrate Christmas Before Thanksgiving!
Guy’s launch party will take place on Wednesday, November 18 from 8 – 10 pm! (Address: 209 10th Avenue South, Suite 200). Guest artists already confirmed to perform include Mandy Barnett (Always… Patsy Cline musical), Arlos Smith (wrote Rascal Flatts’ "Mayberry"), Jerry Foster (legendary songwriter whose hits have been recorded by Jerry Lee Lewis, Conway Twitty, Patti Page, and more!), and Brandon Giles. Andy Reiss of The Time Jumpers will lead the Christmas Party Band as all involved share an evening of music and laughter! Longtime WSM disc jockey, Keith Bilbrey, is slated to host the benefit.
Strum Magazine The new CD from Guy Gilchrist features two sides, "Merry Christmas, Sluggo (San Quentin School for Boys)" and "Christmas Light." "Merry Christmas, Sluggo (San Quentin School for Boys)" is a nod to Johnny Cash’s music. Guy says, "This song is dedicated to those who helped to turn my life around – Brenda Lee, Johnny Cash, my cartoonist heroes, Santa Claus, and God." Guy hopes these songs have "you laughing, dancing, and feeling good! I hope it brings back memories of being a little kid trying to get from Santa's ‘Naughty’ list to his ‘Nice’ list before Christmas morning!"
Anyone who gives a suggested donation of $10 at the door will receive a personalized CD from Guy Gilchrist! Nashville, TN (November 10, 2009) – This year, Christmas will arrive before Thanksgiving at the Listening Room Café in downtown Nashville! "Nancy" illustrator, Guy Gilchrist, has invited singer/songwriter friends to help celebrate the release of his Christmas CD!
