   About Dustin Overbeek
From Nashville, TN, Dustin Overbeek is a singer/songwriter whose songs explore much further reaching boundaries. Growing up with influences ranging from James Taylor and Bob Dylan to Marvin Gaye and John Coltrane, the content in Dustin’s writing reflects introspection into the concerns of the human spirit. His first full length project, “Notions”, with John Kelly, contains many references to nature in the midst of joy and struggle. With a “roots” acoustic sound, Dustin’s intimate lyrics and raw style shine through. Dustin’s strong Christian belief comes through in his second full-length album, “Grounded”, produced by Gene Golden, quarter-century keyboard player for Kenny Rogers. Dustin’s third album entitled “One Step Closer” was released in the summer of 2005. This is Dustin’s first album with a full band all natural sound. Dustin ventures back to the secular world and returns to his folk, storytelling roots. "One Step Closer" includes some of Nashville's best studio players (Rob Hajacos on fiddle--Garth Brooks, Brooks and Dunn, Sugarland and many others; Casey Dreissen on fiddle--Steve Earle, Bela Fleck, John Mayer and Tim O'Brien; Steve Smith on drums--Goose Creek Symphony; John Kelly on Guitar--John Kelly Band and Leftfield Jackson). I Can't Fly was just released in December 2007. I Can't Fly was produced by Robert Reynolds and Jim Reilley, featuring players such as Steve Bowman (Counting Crows), Charlie Chadwick (Shelby Lynne), Rob Hajacos (Garth Brooks, Brooks and Dunn, Neil Diamond), Jen Gunderman (The Jayhawks), Robert Reynolds (The Mavericks), Al Perkins (The Rolling Stones, Emmylou Harris, Stephen Stills, Gram Parsons), Pat McLaughlin (John Prine). This mellow thought-provoking album magnifies Dustin's songwriting lyrically and melodically. Pick yours up today at Snocap or at www.dustinoverbeek.com . Dustin's music continues to mature both musically and lyrically. Keep your eyes wide open for this talent! DigStation - Indie Music Downloads

Hi Dustin,

Just letting all our friends here know what is going on for us this month.

We had a wonderful gig at the Red Light Café on April 27. Thanks Zindi, mom, and Chuck. You came out and supported us and it was awesome. Our music was called whimsical, and it spoke to the soul and brightened moods, also the versatility of the songs mixes up the sound so it isn't the same old thing song after song. Nate's jokes rocked big time, come on out and see what he says next!!! If you weren't there, you missed an awesome show, however, there is another chance for you, we will be playing on Eddie’s Attic Open Mic. Monday May 5 we go on around 7:30pm. You can get tickets for this show either on line at www. eddiesattic. com or get them at the venue when you come out. Eddie’s has great food and drink to, so come on out and enjoy yourself with great music, friends, and food!

The address:
Eddie’s Attic
515-B North McDonough St.
Decatur, Georgia 30030

Go up the stairs and come on in!

We are working on some more new dates for this month and the summer so keep in touch by checking out our websites for updates.
Thanks and Blessings,
Toni

You can check her out at: www. myspace. com/alanagrace and check out details of this music festival at: www. ritesofspring. com to see the line-up and all other details. Lady Antebellum, Spoon and Feist are going to be there among many other artists! All happening Friday and Saturday! Alana's playing on SATURDAY at 445pm, so come check her out! You won't be sorry that you did and there's lots of great music all the rest of the evening, too.

Just trying to spread the word about her and her music because she's been very supportive of Forget-Me-Not.

Please re-post this to help spread the word and hope you're having a great week!
