Alright, this has taken a bit of time to get here but it's here now so enjoy on lucky Friday the 13th of June I had the pleasure of joining Channel 8 News@Noon in New Haven for an interview & live performance segment. a VERY special thanks to my talented friend Joe Barone
who came out & played just beautifully for the show.....check out his music when you're done watching the interview..he's not country but he's a got a GREAT sound & a very chill vibe..he's one of my favs.

(not the most flattering image,haha..but the video is pretty good:) )

anyway- Here is the link for the video of Nicole Frechette's performance on 'News @ Noon" on WTNH News Channel 8 - sorry there was no direct way to place the video..you'll just have to go to the page & click my "COUNTRY MUSIC ARTIST NICOLE FRECHETTE " link..enjoy!

& let me know what you think!!

All for good TASTE

Yesterday the TASTE OF THE SHORELINE was a big success! When I got there in the early afternoon to help with set up, ,to say there were ‘scattered showers’ was a bit of an understatement. With the random downpours that ensued every hour, on the hour for a while, it didn’t seem like there was even going to be a chance that we’d get to out 5:15 stage time. But someone smiled down & the skies turned sunny.



The crowd was there & the music was rocking! I got there early & got to catch a bit of Kailin Garrity before I went on & she did a wonderful job of giving up her own new tunes! Once my band & i got up there, we pulled off some country, rock, pop & blues (of course…we can never stay focused☺ ) & it was FANTASTIC!

People danced, clapped, sang & bought cd’s :) (yay Nicole Frechette fans!woo-hoo!) & I’m thrilled that I was able to be a part of this great fund raising event. See you next year Taste of the Shoreline!

TASTE OF THE SHORELINE

Kickoff Summer the right way with a day full of great food from some of the Shoreline's best restaurants, amazing entertainment all day, and plenty of beer and wine to quench your thirst!!

This Sunday, June 22nd from 11:00 am to 8:00 pm at the Guilford Fairgrounds, RAIN OR SHINE!!

The band & I will take the stage just after 5:00 PM and play you an hour-long dinner set you will be rockin' to!!
