I always look forward to entertaining for the Black Gold
festival every year. They always have a great sound crew and an amazing stage
set up. Keep reading for details of the show!

The Black Gold festival is held in Hazard, KY every year.
Black Gold is a reference to coal, which is very important and historic to our
region of eastern Kentucky. This year, I was lucky enough to get a Friday night
slot at 6:00; just before country stars “Restless Heart” took the stage at
8:00. There was a huge crowd at the outside amphitheater. I arrived early to
ensure that I had plenty of time to sound check, etc. I got the pleasure of
hearing Timothy Baker (check him out here) before I took the stage, and he has
a beautiful voice along with some crazy guitar skill. I performed for an hour
and towards the end of my set, there was standing room only! I was so thankful
for a beautiful day and a great crowd. Check out some songs from my performance

Festival Finds:
Every year, it is inevitable. I have to get a bloomin’
onion. My best friend and I have a tradition to get one every year. Although
she couldn’t make it this year, my parents and I ate one in her honor. I did it
for you, Laken. Not only did we partake in the traditional bloomin’ onion, my
fiancé got a funnel cake too! Of course, I had to sample it a few times. I can
definitely say, the greasiness and calories are definitely worth it for a Black
Gold bloomin’ onion.
