The weekend is coming, Valentine’s Day is coming, and our next tour is coming… life is busy.
I need a vacation. Do you? Well now’s your chance to take a vacation with ME, Jason Deere, and Katherine Nelson! The Nashville Tribute Band has partnered with Morris Murdock Travel to bring you an unforgettable Church history tour in September. Watch the video below and click here for more information about Nauvoo: A Nashville Tribute to the Pioneers.
We hope all of you in Southern Utah and Arizona can make it out to one of our upcoming shows! We’re super excited to hit the road again. Click here for tickets and more information.
Happy New Year to all of you! How are those resolutions going?
First off, we wanted to share with you a little behind-the-scenes footage from our fantastic show on New Year’s Eve at Temple Square. The video shows us rehearsing beneath the tabernacle. Check it out!
Thanks again to everyone who came out . . . there were over 9 thousand people listening to music throughout the night in the historic tabernacle.
We are gearing up for our tour in late February and early March. Its going to be a short run, but we will be able to hit some locations we haven’t visited in a while! The show dates include:
February 29 Beaver, UT
March 1 Cedar City, UT
March 2 Show Low, AZ
March 3 Safford, AZ
If you know people in those areas, please be sure you let them know we are coming! Details for each show can be found on the “Shows” page of the website.
The Nashville Tribute Band was honored to bring in the New year on Temple Square this year. We so sincerely appreciate those that attended the event. It was packed and we loved meeting many of you after the event!
2012 is already shaping up to be an exciting and productive year for NTB. We thrilled about the possibilities that lie ahead! First and foremost, we are excited to announce that NTB will be returning to St. George, UT at the incredibly beautiful Tuacahn Amphitheater on November 9th, 2012. Tickets are already available, so get them soon before the best seats are gone! You can get more details and purchase tickets by clicking HERE.
In addition, we are on the verge of announcing a tour through Southern Utah and Arizona the end of February and are also planning another tour through Northern Utah and Idaho toward the end of August. We’ve also got some things in the works for those of you in Washington State and Oregon this summer! Who knows, maybe we will even head East this year!
Before our next blog post, we will have a handful of new concert dates to announce. We hope to see ALL of you on the road in 2012 and look forward to bringing NTB closer to your homes.
We sincerely thank you for your love and support and look forward to the coming year.
Here’s a holiday treat for you . . . a beautiful Christmas song, The Virgins Lullaby, co-written by Jason Deere. A new version, recorded by members of NTB is coming in 2012!
Christmas. I love it. Always have. Always will. The only problem I have these days is how they come around all too quickly. The older we get the faster those hands of the time seem to catch speed. Anyone who has raised children knows the apprehension felt during the holidays as children get older and parents start to count Christmases left with them living under one roof. Looking back at home movies and seeing them in their little PJs, their eyes sparkling with all the wonder and amazement of the season and your heart cracks a little each time because you miss those beautiful Christmases past. Oh the nostalgia this season brings! Makes us count all of our blessings! Makes me want to give special thanks to my Heavenly Father for the immeasurable blessing of the yearly Christmas Season, when we can reflect on the Savior of the world and stop the high-speed insanity of living in our generation and wrap our arms around those we love and find a moment of rest in their company…hopefully in front of a crackling fire!
As members of the Nashville Tribute Band, we are so thankful this season for all that we have learned and experienced in the past year as we have made music that has changed our lives; music that has created opportunities for us to share our testimonies all over the world singing and playing about those things most precious to our hearts. We love our families. We love the elders and sisters serving in the world. We join you in cheering them on and praying for them…that they will know they are loved and cherished by family, friends, angels and Deity in all that they do. How thankful we are for the unparalleled experience of missionaries in our culture! The preparing, the sending, the going, the serving, the returning, the men and women that walk off of those planes after. There is nothing like it anywhere else on earth!
Enjoy your holidays, soak up every second. We look forward to seeing you all on the road in 2012!
It’s the time of the year where we all look forward to celebrating the holidays with our family members (some we enjoy, some we tolerate) as well as gorge ourselves with delicious food and set New Years resolutions!
With all of that said, it’s a time of year that those of us that are part of NTB sincerely enjoy. It’s a time for us to reflect upon the tremendous amount of blessings that have been bestowed upon us and to reflect upon the birth of our Savior. What a special time of year!
In celebration of the Christmas season, we are offering 20% off of EVERYTHING in the NTB store. So, don’t waste any time and make sure that every missionary you know has a copy of the new album, “The Work: A Nashville Tribute to the Missionaries”. Oh, and need we remind you that technically, ALL of us are missionaries, so all of us should have a copy! When checking out of the store, simply type in the special code “SANTA” and 20% of your total bill will be deducted. Merry Christmas from us!
As a second Christmas present, Katherine Nelson just recorded a brand new Christmas song and is offering it as a free download. You can check out the music video as well as download the song for free by visiting her at www.katherinenelson.com. Keep in mind that Katherine has a new album coming out that is due to be released in March of 2012. It’s going to be spectacular and we are all sincerely excited for her!
Jason recently mentioned how much he misses being on the road as a group and how difficult it is to not be on stage testifying of those things we believe so strongly. Fortunately, neither Jason nor any of you have to wait too much longer before we head on out again! We can’t announce solid dates yet, but we are in the process of solidifying shows in southern Utah and several locations in Arizona that will happen the very end of February or first of March. You can expect for us to announce those dates before our next blog post in 2 weeks.
Lastly, check out the video that was just edited. It’s a conglomeration of footage captured at our Sandy Amphitheater show last August. We have a ton of cool stuff from that show that we will share with you in the future. But for now, you can check out the video above.
