Songs, Art & Photos with Beth

Interview with No Shoes Nation member Interview with. We discuss Kenny Chesney's effect on her life from a young age. His concerts, No Shoes Nation, her photography & Kenny's latest album "Born".

Been through a lot & truth needs to be known. Even though no names are named the events & people are real. Life throws a lot of curves & sometimes you crash into the walls along the way. But when two creatives find each other, it's amazing. People need to get their heads out of social media posts & look beyond into the true things that make someone smile & keeps them going. And that not every celebrity needs another celebrity or hot young thing to make them happy. Sometimes all they need is a true soulmate in life.

Discussion of Kenny Chesney's "Born" album, my initial thoughts, Cody Johnson's "The Painter" & creative souls & thoughts of much needed healing. Also, love to No Shoes Nation on the cusp of the 2024 Sun Goes Down Tour.

2023 has been quite a year. Doing some catching up, sharing some thoughts about art, life, celebrity & amazing connections that keep us going. And my little herd of deer too!
