Beginning on Monday, September 28, 2009, the annual IBMA WOB conference began downtown at the Nashville Convention Center and the place was buzzing with musicians picking in every corner and professionals involved in bluegrass music in every way imaginable. Once again, Donna had a booth for the whole week in the exhibit hall and also a packed schedule of performances and being a member of some panels.
WSM Radio will be re-broadcasting Donna's performance in Cumberland Caverns with her band The Poor Mountain Boys for Bluegrass Underground. The show can be heard once again on Saturday evening, September 19, 2009 at 5:00 p.m. CST.
In the spring of 2008, Donna and Claire Lynch sat in the writer's room at the offices of Hadley Music Group and wrote the gospel song "Face to Face". Much to Donna's delight, that song has been included on the new Claire Lynch CD "Whatcha Gonna Do" being released today by Rounder Records.
