‘I want to share with you that I’ve been feeling very depressed for a while as my daughter has cancer but tonight your music really lifted my spirits’ Comment from a woman during the recent ‘Deep South Tour’
Just a few years ago, Robert one of the band members designed and led his mother’s funeral ceremony. He and a friend played two tunes on guitar and ukulele. Her doctor danced at the back of the gazebo whilst others smiled and swayed to the tunes. It was sad, but also so beautiful. That day sparked something for Robert, with the challenging times we living in it was a drive to make music that really lifts people’s spirits and brings smiles to their faces.
