JOHANNES LINSTEAD - AUGUST MUSIC NEWS

Dear Friends,

We just returned from a bunch of shows in Ft Myers and Naples, Florida. It was hot - very hot. Fortunately we had time to enjoy the beach to cool down! Special thanks to Rob and Maritza for making our time in FL fun and stress-free! Our next shows are in Oshawa and Niagara in Ontario, and Michigan City in Indiana. See below for details.

We recently recorded a live performance and interview on a Toronto radio station called Take 5. Our host, Rosie Del Campo, was gracious and asked some good questions! You can listen to the edited version here. Watch for next month's newsletter in which I unveil my new guitar handcrafted by Luis Feu de Mesquita! The guitar, which is in its final stages, is absolutely gorgeous and has many unique features which I will discuss in my next letter.

'Hope to see you soon!

Johannes

Fan Mail

"There is something about your music. Almost as if it is a living entity that brings life to the soul. Before you know it, you're dancing, feeling free. When you can create music that whispers to the soul and sets it free, that is the greatest of talents and, my friend, you have done so." ~ Tonya, USA
