Hello Dear Family, Friends and Fans,

One of my proudest accomplishments is going to be released to you on October 15th. Country Dreams by Walt Evans on the BSW Record label will be released worldwide on this day. As a lot of you know I have been working on this in Tennessee for months with the most outstanding group of people. My friend Chris Roach introduced me to my producer, world famous Jim Vest, the founder of the Nashville Cats. He produced a dynamite CD and was just a wonderful person to work with, he rounded up the best players in the world to back me on this project. Jim, you and your lovely wife Helen will always have a special place in our hearts you became very dear friends and made a lifelong dream come true, thank you. We recorded at Buck’s Place which is also world famous, the walls are just lined with photos of all the great artist including legend George Jones one of my favorites as you all know. Buck Jarrell is the chief engineer, and once you record there you know why it is so famous, thank you buddy for the dynamite arrangements you are the best, I look forward to working with you again soon, thank you for the magic you do.

I want to say a special thank you to all of the musicians that also made a dream come true they are: Mike Baker, David Rorick, Mark Becket, Buddy Hyatt, Tommy White, Mike Durham, Mike Schrimpf, Jimmy Johnson, Dave Dunseath, Jerry Kroon and Deanie Richardson. A special thank you to the background vocalist Kathy Jarrell and Michael Lusk. Thank you Milan Bogden for perfect mastering of the CD. Earl Owens of BSW Records was a welcome sight at the studio who always brought us good news, especially about my opening at the Nashville Palace in August, he is a good man that I am proud to call friend. Frank and Regina Willson of BSW Records are also two wonderful people that have done so much for us and I want to thank them for believing in me.

I also want to thank the talented writers of the great songs that we chose for the CD, they are: Keith Stegall, Roger Murrah, Jeff Stevens, Wesley Dennis, Larry McCoy, Hank Cochran, Amanda Hunt, Chuck Jones, Johnny Holland, Wesley Butler, Peter Wilhoit, Bill Maki, Tommy Berry and Rob Calder. I’m really proud of how the songs turned out. I also wrote two of the songs on the album and I am proud of how they turned out too.

I want to thank you, my Dear Family, Friends and Fans for coming to see my shows and supporting me at all the different venues I have performed at and for believing in me and thank you for all of your heartfelt prayers, it means the world to me. I will always do the best I can to make you proud, I hope you love the new CD as much as I do.

Love you all,
Walt Evans
