Paid In Applause

Oft times when The Linfords sing it's just for the sake of singing. Yep, we get paid for some gigs, but living in a small town there is a lot of opportunity to help someone out be it a fundraiser, a church function, a family party . . . . . you name it, we've sung at it. And if there isn't a budget for us to be paid, more than likely we'll sing for you anyway. I figure it's more than 'good karma' to share the talents God gave us, and whatever good is done in this world will come back in untold ways. This weekend we had the chance to sing for the Thayne First Ward and although we felt like we were playing the kinks out a bit, they loved the show and gave us a standing ovation!

There is a saying that "You are never a prophet in your own town", and perhaps it's true, but we have felt the love and support of our community every time we perform and not only did they have a good experience with some great music, we did too. Thanks Thayne First!

Your music is very enjoyable to listen to even when you're supposedly just "working the kinks out."

Hey thanks Shan. Wish we could have seen you there that night.
