# 7 in Micronesia

We're a hit in Micronesia! (it's near Australia) This summer, a song from our CD earned a top spot on the Apple Music Chart from that country. Maybe the next time we're in the South Pacific we could open for Bruno Mars.
  1. U2 - Where the Streets Have No Name
  2. U2 – All I Want Is You
  3. Bruno Mars – That’s What I Like
  4. Lady Gaga – The Cure
  5. M.O.P. – Welcome to Brownville
  6. Kane Brown – What If’s
  7. Michael and Jennifer McLain – I’m Ready to Go Home

4 Media Appearances

We hope you caught us on one of these tv or radio shows this year!
NPR station, KASU-FM (Paragould, AR), broadcast our live concert from the Collins Theater.

"These folks are true professionals, both on and off stage. Their stage show was excellent as they performed song after song. Every member of the band is a true virtuoso on their chosen instrument."

Marty Scarborough, KASU-FM
Paragould, Arkansas

WEEU (Reading, PA) broadcast a session from their vintage radio themed sound room. Click below to view.
Michael and Jennifer McLain Band
WSM 650 (Nashville, TN) host, Devon O'Day, welcomed us in the studio for "Nashville Today." We were there to promote our new CD, "Hit The Road And Go."
RFD-TV, KET and PBS will broadcast a special edition of Woodsongs: Old Time Radio Hour featuring us as part of the McLain Family Band. The show was taped at Berea College in Berea, KY (Michael's hometown). The show will air nationwide on RFD January 12, 2018. Hope you can tune in!

# 1 New Sponsor

A big, big thank you to our band's new sponsor, Olympia Luxury Coaches!
 
Olympia recently completed a new Sprinter coach built for our band. Their custom shop did a great job with our layout and build. We really appreciate having a cool, comfortable place to stretch out, change clothes or drink a fresh cup of coffee while on the road. Thanks guys!!

Thank you!

As we look back over this past year, we really count our blessings. We feel very fortunate to be able to do what we love. A heartfelt thanks to so many who help us along the way!

We hope to see you down the road!

Michael & Jennifer McLain
