Every day, I also appreciate our partners who represent diverse interests while sharing our core values; and the members who represent the backbone of the Kentucky chapter. Terry Cook © TNC Staff Together these elements represent the history of our work. As I recently looked back and reflected on the Kentucky chapter’s many conservation achievements, I was struck at how often we have made critical conservation gains through leveraging the resources and talents of many. Whether it was working to secure the protection of Murphy’s Pond in Hickman County back in 1966 or a more recent acquisition along Sinking Creek near the Rockcastle River, Dwarf Iris © TNC Staff the Conservancy has proven that crafting and supporting a common vision among capable conservation partners has been key to permanently protecting some of Kentucky’s most precious lands. I invite you to read about some of these successes in our 2009 Year In Review. I’m proud to participate in the creative ways the Conservancy and its partners protect Kentucky’s natural heritage, especially during these challenging times. Thanks for your steadfast support over the years. I look forward to keeping you apprised of our plans and progress as we work together to protect Kentucky’s lands, waters and open spaces.

  • Forward the Road to Austin Was a Magical Night of Friendship And
    Forward The Road To Austin was a magical night of friendship and amazing music! The date was May 19, 2007 and over sixty artists performed for over 3.5 hours in front of 20,000 people. This event was designed to create and capture a heightened level of excitement towards understanding how and why Austin, Texas has become known as the “live music capital of the world”. The vision was to create a unique live musical showcase of local and world-renowned artists that are deeply rooted to the Austin music scene legacy. The production includes a scripted visual and musical experience delivered via state of the art theatrical staging technology and world class talent. The late Stephen Bruton was the musical director for the show and a founding member of the FORMAX Group. Our top-flight team of producers, directors, engineers, crew, and an amazing roster of performers seamlessly came together to accomplish this historic event. Stephen assembled a 15-piece world class house band and led them through a forty song setlist. The lineup was developed to include multiple genres of music, including poetry, and attempted to blend and blur this artistic diversity in order to deliver many never-seen-before collaborations. The panoply of celebrity headliners heightened the impact of the evening’s apex and afforded Austin’s local artists an opportunity to have these legends accompany them during their performances. A five-day rehearsal and staging period, occurring directly prior to the event was where all these critical components were perfected and new and old friendships magically collided to create a truly unforgettable evening.

  • David Grissom :: How It Feels to Fly Blue Rose/Sonic Rendezvous
    David Grissom :: How It Feels To Fly Blue Rose/Sonic RendezVous The “eternal sideman” David Grissom has successfully been working on a solo career for a number of years now. With his 4th album, the exceptional Texan guitarist finally arrives where he belongs: on the Blue Rose label. With its roots/guitar/Americana roster, Blue Rose is the natural home for the Austin-based string wrangler and will contribute to his long-overdue breakthrough in Europe. How It Feels To Fly is the album title – and indeed, Grissom plays music that will elevate your spirits – be it at full volume in your home stereo or on stage. He will soon play his first headlining tour through German clubs! John Mellencamp, Joe Ely, James McMurtry, Storyville, Charlie & Bruce Robison, Chris Knight, the Allman Brothers, Robben Ford, Ringo Starr, John Mayall, Buddy Guy, Chris Issak and the Dixie Chicks can’t all be wrong. And those are only the most important cornerstones of Grissom’s career. The guitarist is the go-to guy when a singer-songwriter wants to up the rock factor of their music. David Grissom has succeeded in creating his own sound and a stellar reputation based on his bone-dry Keith-inspired riffing and his signature no frills-lead guitar attacks. But amid his busy schedule as a sidekick he has never lost sight of his true dream which he has been making come true since 2008: writing his own songs, singing them with a surprisingly charismatic voice, recording and producing them at home (Spicewood Studios, Texas) and … obviously, putting his inimitable style of playing the guitar in focus! In 2008 he debuted with the aptly titled Loud Music, followed by 10,000 Feet in the spring of ’09.

  • David Grissom Press Release 2010 Final
    Asterope News Release GUITARIST LEGEND DAVID GRISSOM SELECTS ASTEROPE INSTRUMENT CABLES AS CABLE OF CHOICE AUSTIN, TEXAS, October 4 , 2010… Asterope today announced that legendary guitarist David Grissom has selected Asterope instrument cables as his cable of choice for performances and studio recordings. Grissom recently tested the Asterope cable against his previous favorite, a cable he had used for more than seven years, before switching to Asterope. In addition to his solo recording career, David Grissom has recorded and toured with a wide variety of other legendary artists. He is known for his early work with Joe Ely, after which he went on to perform with John Mellencamp. He then formed the critically acclaimed Storyville. He has toured or played with the Allman Brothers, the Dixie Chicks, John Mayall, Robben Ford, James McMurtry, Montgomery Gentry, Buddy Guy, LeeAnn Womack and Martina McBride. “A friend recommended Asterope to me,” said David Grissom. “I was very skeptical about ‘yet another cable.’ When I A/B’ed it against my favorite cable – one I had been using for seven years – I could hear a big difference. Asterope was the clear winner. It has warmer, fatter highs and clearer lows. Today, I use Asterope every time I play.” “David Grissom represents the type of iconic artist that is becoming the hallmark of our brand,” said Dariush Rad, Asterope founder and CEO. “Our goal as a company is to provide musicians with the best sound possible and to help them experience their music in a whole new way.” David Grissom now joins a number of elite musicians who have selected Asterope as their cable of choice, including Bob Babbitt, GRAMMY® Award-Winning Motown bass player, and Jack Pearson, renowned guitarist for the Allman Brothers.

  • David Grissom (Usa)
    BLUES, ROCK, COUNTRY DAVID GRISSOM (USA) Was haben Robert Plant, John Mellencamp, Ringo Starr, Robben Ford, Buddy Guy, John Mayall, the Allman Brothers, Joe Ely, Web Wilder, the Dixie Chicks, Bob Dylan und Chris Isaak gemeinsam? Sie alle haben schon mit dem Gitarristen David Grissom gearbeitet. Der nahm seinen Wohnsitz in der Musikstadt Austin im Jahre 1983 und wurde schnell ein Star der pulsierenden lokalen Musikszene, als er für Lucinda Williams und Lou Ann Barton in die Saiten griff. 1985 wurde er Mitglied der Band der texanischen Legende Joe Ely, mit dem er bis 1991 im Studio und auf der Bühne spielte. Danach wechselte Grissom zu John Mellencamp, für den er auf drei Alben seine Gitarre spielte sowie auf unzähligen Tourneen. Schließlich kehrte er nach Texas zurück und gründete Storyville, eine Band, in der zwei Musiker von Double Trouble mitspielten, die vorher den legendären Stevie Ray Vaughan begleitet hatten. Kürzlich spielte Grissom auf Buddy Guys CD „Living Proof“, die mit einem Grammy ausgezeichnet wurde. Des Weiteren brachte er ein Gitarrenlehrbuch heraus. Und als Robert Plant nach Austin kam, rief dieser Grissom an, um mit ihm eine Band zu gründen. „Way Down Deep“ ist David Grissoms letztes Solowerk. Darauf wird er begleitet von J.J.Johnson (John Mayer, Derek Trucks) und Chris Maresh (Eric Johnson, Bonnie Raitt). Die Musik demonstriert eindrucksvoll die Stärken dieses Gitarristen. Auf der CD findet der Zuhörer Instrumentals und Gesangsnummern mit einer fantastischen Gitarrenarbeit des Künstlers und starken Songtexten aus seiner Feder. “Way Down Deep” soll ab März 2014 auch in Europa via “Blue Rose Records” vertrieben werden.
