Kenny & Zoe form the duo McKenZie, and they released their first album of original country music, "Walking on Steel" in November 2007 which was extremely well received by UK & European radio and country music press. They much enjoyed opening the Great Scottish Country Music Festival in Ayr, Scotland, on November 2nd 2007 and opened the festival again in 2008. They have appeared at Country Music Festivals in the UK including Filey, Towerfest, Lincoln, Norwich, Malvern, Minehead & Bognor, where they opened the night for Billy Joe Spears, and enjoyed playing at some of the many Country Music clubs up and down the country. McKenZie have recieved airplay on national radio, including BBC Glasgow, Kent & Shropshire. At Radio Tay Am, DJ Ken Mcleod described their album as "pure magic". In March 2009 they were thrilled to release the single "Ice Road Truckers" featuring George Hamilton IV on lead vocals, which is a song from their second album "2 for the Road". Hope you enjoy the music! Buy McKenZie's album Walking on Steel here, ten fantastic tracks all written by them, full track listing in our blog. They have also included two bonus tracks in homage to thier scottish roots, the traditional Scottish songs The Dark isle & A Red Red Rose. Also now available on iTunesWalking On Steel

Thanks for your Christmas wishes.  I cannot believe it will all be over by this time next week.  Time flies by doesn't it?  Hope you are ok and all ready for the holiday season.  Hating this cold icy, snowy weather.  My road looks like one huge sheet of ice right now.  Dreading walking to work in the morning.
Love

Thank you for being our friend.

This is probably Christopher Lee's last album: he will be 88 soon - although with his energy, he might well reach 100!! :)

We do appreciate your support. If you haven't already done so, please check the samples we have uploaded for "Charlemagne: By the Sword and the Cross".

I’ve been a music journalist for more than 10 years. Over the years, many artists and managers have asked me what the best way to break into the European music market is.

Here are some things you can do:



Publish artist press releases, news, and tour dates to the CountryHome Forum on MySpace, http://groups.myspace.com/CountryHomeMagazine , CountryHome Forum is part of CountryHome, http://www.CountryHome.de , Germany's Premier Country Music Online Magazine. Everything you publish to the CountryHome Forum will be published in my weekly Newsletter which has over 80,000 readers.



Publish artist interviews in English to http://groups.myspace.com/CountryHomeMagazineInterviewsEnglish , interviews in French to http://groups.myspace.com/InterviewsAvecCountryMusicStars and interviews in German to http://groups.myspace.com/CountryMusikInterviews . All these groups on MySpace are part of CountryHome, http://www.CountryHome.de , Germany's Premier Country Music Online Magazine.



Send me CDs and DVDs for review and set up an artist interview with me. All reviews and interviews will be submitted to the magazines I'm writing for. More information for which magazines I'm writing can be found at http://www.MySpace.com/ChristianLamitschka



Upload artist videos to http://www.MyVideo.de and http://www.ClipFish.de . Both websites are like http://www.YouTube.com and uploading videos is free. The websites are completely in German. If you don’t speak German and need assistance, I will help you open an account and upload a video for 25 Euro. Each additional video upload for the same artist name and at the same video website is 10 Euro.



If you have more questions about the European music market or about any of the information I send to you today, please contact me at Ch.Lamitschka@t-online.de too.
