ARL Roots Review 87

Words alone can't describe the incredible week of live music we experienced over the holidays at American Roots Live and Writers in Raritan. Here's a photo taste of how we celebrated the music and rang in the new year...


My heart is filled with hope and happiness for all of us in 2008.

Happy New Year!
