A Note From Mac
Hello to all today from Nashville TN. I have the privilege today to reacquaint myself with the floor plan of my own house. The last three months have been the busiest and most high mileage of my life. I say that without even the tiniest complaint because I have enjoyed every minute. Even the red-eye flights.
I have been blessed with the best summer job in the world as a Coral Reefer. And this year as schedule allows, my friend and singing partner Kenny Chesney has been gracious enough to have me as a guest on his Sun City Carnival Tour. Meanwhile I’ve been in the studio with Mike Utley co-producing the new Jimmy Buffett CD (which is mighty fine by the way) . And thanks to yet another good friend Toby Keith I had the opportunity to fill in the remaining moments of the days recording and releasing my 11th CD “Down By the River”.
Although it has to read like I’m bragging it’s really more that I’m acknowledging my blessings. And explaining to you who grace my website with a visit from time to time why you don’t hear more from me directly. I am basically a farm boy from Mississippi who was brought up thinking it was poor character to call attention to yourself. So how in the world did I wind up in show business? There’s no good logical explanation why a pudgy Scot-Irish Mississippian who has spent his entire life avoiding cameras and even mirrors is a functioning member of Show Business. Divine Comedy I guess. And Music.
After Family, music is the driving force of my entire life and it’s so interlaced with my family I almost consider them as one thing.
I am rambling a bit but mainly want to thank you for your continued support across the decades of my most unlikely career. I don’t always feel deserving but I’m certainly always grateful. I will try to be better about checking in from time to time but struggle with the whole “Bragging” thing so we’ll see. What I can promise you though is that I will keep chasing the songs in my head and trying to get the best out of my God Given Limitations as well as Talents.
Mahalo Y’all
