On January 30th I officially kicked off my 2024 musical adventure around the sun with a performance by the Benny Hill Jazz Quartet! It was a spectacular benefit event raising money for the Cape Fear Community College's music department and it was a few hours WELL spent!! Then on February 2nd I chose to once again celebrate what used to be my marriage anniversary by attending a concert, in order to make some new memories ;) This year I had the distinct pleasure of taking in a performance by Elvis Costello & The Imposters, with Charlie Sexton guesting in as well, and boy oh boy was my soul filled with MAGNIFICENT MUSICAL MELODIES!!  In case you didn't know: I LOVE MUSIC!!! It truly does soothe this savage beast ;) Do you love music? Then join me as I share my experience regarding both mentioned performances, along with the musical agenda I have on the books so far, and hopefully it will inspire you to get busy making YOUR concert plans OR get you jazzed for your already booked upcoming events! Do you not love music? Well I invite you to take a listen just the same and perhaps my joy will fill you with joy ;) **DISCLAIMER: Please take note that any references to ketamine infusions or any other form of medicinal treatments, mainstream or non mainstream, are strictly meant to provide an insight into my own experiences.

When America went to war to fight for its independence, it was a nation of immigrants. Among those disparate groups looking for opportunity in the new country were the Highland Scots, thousands of which made the journey after being forced out of their homeland. In the Cape Fear region, they found an abundance of land, the chance to build a new life and the rumblings of a war that would redefine their history forever. This week's episode explores the history of the Highland Scots, why they fled to America, how they forged a life in Southeastern North Carolina, why the Revolutionary War turned their new lives upside down and how they built a legacy that still survives today. Joining the episode is Kimberly Sherman, a historian, writer and lecturer at Cape Fear Community College. Cape Fear Unearthed is written, edited and hosted by Hunter Ingram. Additional editing by Adam Fish. The show is sponsored by Northchase Family Dentistry and Tidewater Heating & Air Conditioning.
