We are pleased to announce that a song Nancy Beaudette co-wrote with Jim and Lynna Woosley will be released on August 4th on their new CD, “Heart and Soul, Blood and Bone”. This exceptional CD is the latest installment from this husband-wife duo. The songwriting, musical creativity, guest artists and performances of these original songs is refreshing and powerful.
The inspiration for the song “Last Train Out” came from Lynna’s memories of her mother Elsie. She took the train many times during her youth, and later in life when she fell ill with Alzheimer’s, would ask if it was time for the train. She lost her battle in 2013 but her memory lives on in this song.
Jim and Lynna’s 2014 release, “The Road That Brings You Home” garnered top placement on bluegrass, americana and folk radio all across the US and Canada, and “Heart and Soul, Blood and Bone” is destined to have no less impact on the airwaves and in collectors libraries.
It’s a fabulous album, available on itunes or directly from the artist’s website.

Moonlit Pond Records is pleased to announce the inclusion of New England Recording Artist Shanna Jackman under their umbrella of Artist Support. Shanna had been best known for headlining the band “Not In Kansas”, but as of Spring 2013, she left the band to focus on a solo career. MPR’s Nancy Beaudette met Shanna a few years back and had been keeping an eye on her progress; the opportunity for collaboration was ripe. There is a growing, and perhaps under-tapped concentration of country music artists in North Eastern United States, and Shanna is at the top of the pack! At the invitation of Nancy, Texas songwriter Connie Mims climbed aboard the writing team that would take Shanna all the way to Nashville, TN!
