Topic: Bragging Moment

My oldest grandson is a senior in high school and an aspiring actor.  He has had some nice parts in local productions in the Pensacola Florida area.  A couple months ago he was was contacted by Billy Dean in Nashville and asked if he was interested in being in a music video with Chloe Channell, a former finalist in the "America's got Talent" contest and an up-and-coming country artist....... A chance to get paid and hang out with a cute little singer-songwriter? HECK YES!!!!

I've been paying for his guitar lessons for the last couple years and he is beginning to be a pretty good picker himself.  He said he had a ball hanging out with Chloe although his girlfriend probably didn't like it much.........  Here's a link to the video.

A very handsome lad and he filled the screen as well as the girl did. I'm sure he has a future on screen if that's what he wants? I'm proud to say he's the son of a Chordian so you must be totally made up.

Congrats.

Ask not what Chordie can do for you, but what you can do for Chordie.
