It's been a couple of months since I've had time to post news here on the Glenna Bell Homepage because I've been very busy and many good things have been happening with my music. A highlight is that I just got word from my excellent radio promoter, Bill Wence in Nashville, that "Hoping I Could Be Wrong" from my album Face This World was recently added on heavy rotation to Shane Wilder's Best of Country Show, which is based in Hollywood and is syndicated on 78 stations across the nation. That was such good news, coming along as I'm preparing for another adventure this evening (Friday, September 15)--a trip to the infamous Huntsville, Texas, former home of the Prison Rodeo and where many years ago Johnny Cash once entertained a captive audience--literally. I won't be playing the prison like J.C. did, but a new venue called The Stardust Room on Huntsville's historic town square. When he contacted me about booking, the owner and talent buyer, Ben Bell (no relation), described The Stardust Room at 1115 Universtiy Avenue as having a "Cactus Cafe atmosphere," and I was immediately sold on the idea of putting on a show at this new listening room. Last summer my appearance at The Cactus, Austin's premier folk club rated in the top ten music venues in the nation by Billboard Magazine, was all that I'd imagined and more--and the proprieter, Griff Luneberg who's made The Cactus all that it is today, has promised me another gig there in the near future--so I'll keep you posted on that and everything else with another update very soon. In the meantime, I'd better get ready to hit the road from Houston to Huntsville with Gary Blaine Clark who will accompany me on Dobro and lap steel guitar tonight at The Stardust. I can't think of a better way to spend a Friday night in Texas, so if, by chance, you find yourself in the area, we'd love to see you out on the square. If not, I wish you and yours a lovely mid-September weekend wherever you may be. Until next time, y'all come!
