Emerging new group, TelluRide, performed the National anthem at
Kauffman Stadium on May 8 for the Kansas City Royals and it
marked the group's first time to ever sing in a Major League
Baseball Park. The performance was broadcast live on mlb.tv
online, as well as on FSN-HD in the Kansas City region.
"Baseball was such a big part of my childhood that getting to sing
the National anthem for the Kansas City Royals almost seems
surreal," noted lead singer Adam Craig.
Nashville-based TelluRide is managed by InTune Entertainment
and recently opened for Michael Peterson on the My Real Life Tour
in cities across the country. The group's debut CD will be released
this summer on American Roots Records

Whisperin' Bill Anderson just keeps on adding to his vast vault of
accolades and this time the enduring legend has hit pay-dirt on a
national TV & radio ad for Sears with a song he wrote in the early
sixties called "We Missed You". Initially recorded by Kitty Wells, the
song reached Billboard's #7 chart slot in 1962. Now today -- more
than 50 years later -- a recent recording by Doyle Lawson &
Quicksilver has given the song another life by becoming a
commercial for Sears that is currently airing throughout the country.
