BELIEVE WITH ME AND PRE-ORDER MY THIRD RELEASE TO BE PRODUCED BY
WILLIAM ACKERMAN NOW!!! (Windham Hill Records Founder)
Hello Family, Friends, Fans and Supporters of My Music,
First and foremost I do hope you know how much your support means to me. As an independent artist the truth is in the word ‘support’ without you I would have NONE, so please know how grateful I am for your past, present, and future support of my musical career.
I am writing you today to ask for collective and cohesive support, I am making one of the biggest ‘career’ decisions to date. I am scheduled to record my next CD with the one and only William Ackerman (Windham Hill founder) as producer in October of this year. The budget has been set at $30,000 in studio time/musicians and production alone. The recording will take place at Will’s Imaginary Road Studio in Vermont. I know these are some big numbers, and that times are tough right now for everyone. This CD is also a personal challenge for my continued growth as a musician, I also feel it is necessary to give my fans, and supporters the best that I can offer. Today, that is making this CD with Will. With your help we can turn this dream into a reality by helping me fund this project and securing my time with Will later this year.
Today I ask you to believe with me, to continue to believe, not only in my music, but in me, Ronnda Cadle, musician, composer and human being. I believe with all my heart that music does heal in so many ways. Please help me make this a reality and live this dream with me. Help me create the best CD that I can so it can be heard by those who have ears not only ready to listen, but who are searching to hear. By helping support this project, not only are you helping create my personal dream and vision, you are involved in its direction and have energetically become part of it. I can’t do this alone, nor would I want to.

As a solo guitar instrumentalist, Ronnda Cadle is known for melodic undertones and musical hooks she coaxes from her guitar. With over 20 years experience playing her original compositions before live audiences across the U.S., this musician from Decatur, Georgia has developed a devoted fan base. She has shared the stage with many other well-known musicians including Sarah Bettens, Al Petteway, Atlanta Rhythm Section, Mother's Finest and 2003 American Music Award Winner, Moe Loughran. Ronnda's style fuses heartfelt emotional content with masterful guitar work. There are times when her guitar seems to speak with a charming "slow southern drawl," like Ronnda herself. She perfected her craft while listening to guitarists whom she considers her greatest mentors - Nancy Wilson of Heart, Caroline Aiken, and Emily Saliers of Indigo Girls. Ronnda says, "I wouldn't be the player I am today if it were not for these strong and amazing women. I hope to bring my own voice to the generations of women musicians who follow."
Cadle is about to record her third release in Oct of 2009 with former Windham Hill Founder and Producer William Ackerman at his Imaginary Road Studios in Vermont. Her latest release 'After' with the String Poets has been featured on the Public Radio International program Echoes playlist and has had several songs selected for the PBS television program and online site Roadtrip Nation.
Ronnda Cadle & The String Poets 2007 release, "After", was produced by two-time Grammy Award Winner, Don McCollister (Third Day, Shawn Mullins, Indigo Girls).
Quotes ~
“Ronnda Cadle’s music offers purity that is breath-taking. The sincerity of her expression leaves no room for anything but the essential.
Though a very accomplished guitarist, there is an innocence to her music in which beauty, grace and open emotion are un-obscured by ego and unencumbered by gratuitous flourish. When you listen to Ronnda Cadle you believe her unconditionally.”
—Will Ackerman,
Windham County, VT
“Ronnda is an amazing technician on the guitar. She coaxes a full-voiced sound out of the instrument and the result is a confident, clear tone. She’s a melodic, hooky writer. Her songs stay with me for days.”
--Sue Ennis, Songwriter, Heart
"When I listen to Ronnda Cadle's music I can close my eyes and I am
transported. Her music has that magical ability to paint a picture
without saying a word."
--Don McCollister, Two Time Grammy Award Winning Producer
“Ronnda’s music has heart and speaks volumes!”
--Caroline Aiken, Decatur folk scene pioneer, singer/songwriter
“…the kind of music that makes you want to sit back and close your eyes”
--Sarah Bettens, K's Choice
“(After) - an enchanting album that will enthrall you with beauty, melody and passion. I cannot remember when I heard an album that has such a sweet magical blending of instrumentation. Everybody does everything right on this CD.”
--RJ Lannan, New Age Reporter
“A delightfully restrained, yet subtly subversive folk-classic hybrid, Cadle’s music is the soundtrack to a million dreams at once. A cinematic treat.”
--Lee Valentine Smith, Creative Loafing, Atlanta
“There are rare occasions when I have the opportunity to prepare dinner for my bride, open a nice bottle of wine, build a warm fire and truly enjoy life! It takes a very special record to round out these events. Ronnda Cadle has made that type of record! I hope you get the chance to see for yourself!”
--Eddie Owen, Founder - Eddie’s Attic, the Southeast’s Premier Listening Room
