Hi, all! Welcome to the Kennedys February 2003 Newsletter! Lots of good
things happening, as the new year gets into full swing. We continue to record
our next CD, which has been tentatively named STAND. We're very pleased to
announce that we recently had members of our fave band, Gandalf Murphy and
the Slambovian Circus of Dreams in to sing harmonies on the title track!
What's more, we've decided to record two songs for this album by two of our
friends, who also happen to be outstanding songwriters: Nerissa Nields, and
Dave Carter. The album is nearly finished, and we hope to have it to you by
the late spring or early summer!
