Headed south-west down the Natchez Trace Parkway to Amber Falls Winery in Hampshire to see my buddy Brian play a bit of jazz with his group The Kelly Harper Jazz Group last Saturday. It's a pretty darn cool place and they have a couple of wines that are quite tasty.
Also enjoying the music, and a bunch of the product from Amber Falls, was a group of about a dozen ladies having a bachlorette party. The party was for Brittney Nichole, and that's her there in the picture with the headgear on, with Brian tossing her the side-eye while trying to find the right key. This group of ladies was having a grand old time, and during one of the sets they asked if the band knew "Strawberry Wine". The band admitted that they didn't, but if Brittney and her best girlfriend wanted to come on up and sing it, well then they would definitely fall in and make a go of it.
And, make a go of it they did. The ladies acquitted themselves well, sang pretty good harmony, and they remembered all of the words. The band had no trouble finding the groove for a four-four country tune with only a couple of chords so it was all good.
Here's to Brittney and her new road of marriage and life in a couple of weeks. Cheers girl, and Good Luck!
