In addition to performing at many of my favorite venues and some new ones, I’m really excited to have the opportunity to participate in some great causes. January 31, 2010. I’ll be performing two shows at Austin Peay University for Visitation Hospital in Haiti, sponsored by Austin Peay, the City of Clarksville and 100.3FM and Five Star Radio Group. I also have an upcoming performance for the American Cancer Society sponsored by “Bikers Who Care”. Much thanks to the people who put these events together and provide a way for us to give!
I also want to tell you about a new documentary called “Beyond the Myth” which addresses breed specific legislation as it relates to pit bulls (and dogs that even resemble pit bulls) and the way the media can sway public opinion. This is an important film taking a balanced look at the media’s impact on public perception over history. I will have a song in the movie and be as involved as I can in promoting it! See their page on facebook!

Wishing all of you a wonderful, safe Christmas and holiday season.
I try not to get overwhelmed with the obligations and remember what this time of year is about. It can be a little stressful to consider all the people you care about at one time and sufficiently letting them know!
I’m great at shopping for myself…I know what I like. It’s a challenge to really focus attention on others – but very rewarding to see them light up just because they were thought of through the gesture of a gift.
SO…January 6th I’m headed back to Mackinaw Harvest Music to do some more work on Comin’ On Strong” with my producer, Michael Crittenden. Can’t wait to see him and get creative!!! Hopefully we’ll take another trip to Los Angeles to work with Brian Malouf as we complete the project.
Again, have a wonderful holiday! Can’t wait to give you good news that the CD is ready to go!
Thank you all for hanging in there with me and being so supportive during this process - also, looking forward to seeing you at a show soon. Go to www.myspace.com/kimberclevelandmusic for my calendar. Also, scroll down this page for previous posts and photos.
So there are a few kinks with the new web-site when some people log on. If that’s the case for you, I apologize and we’re getting it all worked out!
My calendar is up to date at myspace.com/kimberclevelandmusic

The last few months have been amazing and I’m overwhelmed by the kindness and generosity of people who have stepped up to promote, sacrifice and encourage me musically. There are too many people to thank for making my life wonderful and for helping me continue writing, recording and performing.
Thanks to everyone for coming out to shows, buying CDs and t-shirts and supporting me. I appreciate you so much!
The next few months my producers, Michael Crittenden, Doug Frasure and I will be focused on finishing up “Comin’ On Strong”. Producer, Joe West (Gasoline Productions, Inc) and his partner David Pahanish are co-writers on my song “Face to Face” and Gasoline Productions Inc. is mixing and engineering it. They recently wrote and produced a #1 song for Toby Keith and another #1 with Jimmy Wayne.
The plan is also to get to Los Angeles soon to work with Brian Malouf again who has engineered several of the songs on “Comin’ on Strong” and is definitely a hero of mine.
So the fall 2009 date of completion is being moved to the begininning of February 2010. Schedules change; unexpected things happen…I believe the timing will be just right.
Thanks for checking in!
It’s great to be here – even with a place on Facebook, myspace, twitter, etc… Thank you for stopping by to check out my web-site!! I really appreciate you and hope you’ll visit often.
My new project, “Comin’ On Strong” should be ready to go sometime in December 2009 - the completion of almost a year of lots of hard work, fun, frustration, creative fulfillment, anticipation…etc..etc.. I’ve heard statements about how difficult it must for an artist in this industry - but I can’t imagine doing anything else!
Recording “Comin’ on Strong” and the past year of playing live have been awesome. I can’t wait to get this music out and I hope you love it!!
I have a lot of shows coming up so check out my calendar at www.myspace.com/kimberclevelandmusic …moving to the web-site soon…
