Ady's Song

Most of you have heard that there was a song written about Adyson called Ady's Song. The song was written by Leslie Wade-Felts, a friend Dan grew up with. Leslie is from the small town of Sand Hill, MS...but has learned to call Nashville her 2nd home. She wrote her first song at age 11 and never stopped. Leslie got her first taste of Nashville in 2007 and has been hooked ever since. She has had 11 single song contracts and a publishing deal with Gulf Steel Music. She placed in the top 25 of Nashville's Music City's Writing song contest in 2009. She is a photographer by trade, but a songwriter by heart!

Ocean Springs held its first ever festival to celebrate songwriting this weekend. Leslie played at the Porter Avenue Bistro and Mosaics. She put Ady's Song in her line up of songs to sing. Before she sang, she talked about how we have overcome such a tragedy in our life, but so has Leslie. She is in remission from cancer and the reason why she could not sing Ady's Song at her memorial benefit is because she had been in the hospital with pnemonia.

This week she will be in the studio recording Ady's Song and soon it will be on I-Tunes and CD for you to buy.

There were a lot of great talent there. We heard Tommy Barnes from Tupelo. He wrote the song Indian Outlaw sung by Tim McGraw. He also performed the song too. ~ Bernie Faulkner who has worked with Billy Ray Cyrus, Troy Gentry of Montgomery Gentry, and is currently on tour with Tim McGraw. ~ Bo Roberts, who was the lead guitar player and band leader for Hank Williams, Jr.

*Sorry about the quality of the video. It was dark and they didn't turn the lights on til after she sang. And I was crying so it is a little shaky. But for the most part you can hear. AND-- Don't forget to go pause my blog music.*
