SNOW SONG
If you need a little comic relief digging out of this latest storm, check out my Snow song: www.howienewman.com/snow
It’s an oldie but goodie bluegrass tune from the Trust Me, You’ll Like It album. Banjo, mandolin, stand-up bass and cool harmonies. Check it out.
20th ANNIVERSARY FOR TMYLI
Speaking of the Trust Me, You’ll Like It album, this memorable 13-song collection is now 20 years old. That’s a china anniversary if you choose to send gifts. Please wrap carefully if you do.
Guitar ace Duke Levine and reed man Billy Novick are featured on TMYLI.
Believe it or not, I still have some original copies left. Go to www.howienewman.com/buy-cd to purchase a CD pr download. For a couple of music samples, visit www.howienewman.com/music-samples

DATE CHANGE: PANTRY OF HOPE BENEFIT
Scheduling alert: This year’s Pantry of Hope benefit will take place on Sunday, Aug. 2, from 6-7:30 p.m. at the First Baptist Church in Melrose, 561 Main St. This is the sixth annual community fundraiser.
Proceeds benefit the Pantry of Hope, a charity run by the church that provides food for needy families in the greater Melrose area. We have raised thousands of dollars for this great cause over the years.
It had originally been slated for June 21 but I then realized I was Father’s Day so we moved it to Aug. 2. Hope to see you there.
