Thanks, Cowpoke!

As a follow-up to your post, here are two photos from last Saturday's tribute for Glen Campbell's 80th birthday at the Grand Ole Opry.

In the first picture below, Ashley Campbell is shown on stage performing "Remembering" in honor of her Dad.

In the second picture, Ashley performs "Wichita Lineman" singing with her Godfather, Carl Jackson.
It was a beautiful cover of this iconic Jimmy Webb song, and I hope fans were able to tune in to Saturday evening's show to listen to it.

Band members included "Will" and Shannon Campbell.

BBC Radio 2 Country, London

Ashley Campbell recently participated in the humongous 2016 Country to Country ("C2C") Festival that took place in London, Glasgow and Dublin over three nights on March 11-13. The festival is apparently the biggest country music festival in Europe. Did any fans here on the forums attend?

We can hear Ashley here on a special backstage session with BBC Radio 2 Country held at the fest --click link below.
In addition to singing "Remembering" & "Gentle On My Mind" and playing banjo, Ashley talks about her career and provides a very touching update on her Dad.

SPECIAL NOTE: This programme will only be accessible on BBC for another 27 days from today (March 16th).

Well, you know what her Dad always said about what makes a good song: "A good lyric naturally — and words, too...." [Glen laughing]
