I hope you thoroughly enjoyed the long and languid days of summer; I suppose technically we are getting into Fall but I am still in denial! I am so excited to share some fun updates with you in this newsletter. This past year and the months that lay ahead feel like a huge blessing... Please know that without your support, none of these adventures would be possible. Thank you so much for being a part of this musical journey!

FALL TOUR DATES ANNOUNCED
Gaelynn & Paul are Hitting the Road!
A lot has happened since last I wrote to you folks! First off, my husband and I (with the help from many loving friends and family members) got the house ready to put on the market... and it thankfully sold last week!
You may wonder what selling the house has to do with performing music, but at this point, quite a lot!
My booking agent Craig Grossman
has been a busy bee all summer, and he just finished booking my first-ever national tour! My husband Paul and I leave Duluth at the beginning of October and we'll be living more or less on the road for the following six weeks. Selling the house helped us to loosen some of our commitments so that we can travel lightly... and we are so excited!
Because of my disability, traveling involves an extra set of logistical considerations, but together Paul and I are determined to make this touring thing work.
We have always loved camping and long
road trips, so we are taking a pretty big leap and trading the house for a van and our day jobs for the adventures of playing music all across the country! I am sure we'll have plenty of stories to tell when we get home in November!
Keep your fingers crossed that our upcoming travels go smoothly... We do hope you'll swing by a show if you live near any of the tour stops listed below; Paul and I would love to see you on the road! :)

HO-HO-HOLIDAY MUSIC IS ON ITS WAY!
Releasing a Wintery-Themed Album this November
Although it's a little too early to be talking Christmas (even Target hasn't started decorating yet!), I thought I'd let you know that
I'm heading back into the studio later this week to start recording an album of my favorite live-looped traditional Christmas carols, to be released in November 2016!
I'd be thrilled if you could
help me raise the money
needed to record, mix, master, and print this holiday CD... That is a total of about $3,500. Some of you lovely folks have already contributed the first $500 to the album... Thank you so much!
For those of you who have not yet donated, if you would be willing to contribute funds to my Christmas album (no amount is too small!) I will send you a free copy of the album once it's finished as a token of my appreciation!
Cheers to the music of the holidays!
