Hey Friends,
Thank you for joining us. I hope you are having a great day. Welcome to April! There are no April Fools jokes here today.
We are rewinding to Saturday, March 23rd. Mom and I traveled to Washington Courthouse, Ohio, not too far away.
We went to Heritage Church to see the Martins in concert. It has been years since I have seen the Martins live. I was thrilled to receive a notification about this concert in my area on the Bands In Town app! We were home and able to attend.
It was an appreciation concert for Sunday school teachers and church workers in their fellowship. They honored several people.
Then, it was time for the main event of the Martins. Thanks to Heritage for a great night of music! Everyone was so friendly and welcoming.
The Martins have been family favorites for over thirty years, and their singing has always inspired us.
The concert was incredible! I smiled all night and kept looking at Mom, saying, "Wow!"
The Martins are a sibling trio: Joyce, Jonathan and Judy. They were all there and came out to sing. After the first song, we were told that Jonathan did not have enough voice to sing the entire concert. They had reinforcements waiting in the wings. Judy’s son Jake Hess the III was there.
Jake did a fabulous job filling in for his Uncle Jonathan. This was the first time he sang live with the Martins.
He was nervous but was having a great time. His Mama, Judy and Aunt Joyce were so proud and thrilled to be singing with Jake! It was fantastic to witness this night in The Martin’s history!
Here are my pictures from the evening. I hope you enjoy the concert virtually!
Jake also sang two song he has co-written. Both songs have been recorded and released by others. Turns out Mom and I already knew both songs. We did not know he was one of the writers.
See you tomorrow!
Odie
