So it’s a little over a week and a half until mine and my singing partner’s first professional country performance together.

We discovered last night we needed to add four extra songs to our second set (we’re doing two 45 minute sets) and on top of me in charge of the organisational side like advertising, invoices, speaking with the venue etc. (he’s in charge of the music: I can’t play guitar for the life of me!) we’re feeling it!

Despite this, I am looking forward to it. As you know I’m a big fan of country music so being able to sing songs from my favourite artists is pretty awesome, whether we pull it off or not! 😂

The venue’s a nice place. We did our first open mic together there and the atmosphere is pretty chilled out. I’ve never seen anyone get loud or leery there or give any of the girls any bother. Even so, my singing partner’s ex-police so I know I’ll be ok! lol.

But the last few days the lyrics just haven’t been going in to my head at all. I think I’m trying too hard to be honest with you. The more I relax, the more the lyrics will sink in.
Rehearsal’s tomorrow and we’ve got an open mic on Monday before the big night, so let’s get this show on the road! :O

All my love,

Violet xx
