Good day Cherry Pie family and friends!
What a fun weekend we had playing TWO private shows. Yes, we occasionally do that and yes, we are always open to being hired for any occasion. We have played weddings, birthdays, and “just-because” parties to name a few. This past weekend was the Spanton Family Farm-Fest party and the Schilling Benefit; a family affected by cancer.
Let's start with Friday… we headed to Dousman; a sleepy little farm community in western Waukesha County. We have had the pleasure of playing this party before and this year, there was no shortage of fun. The night started out with an amazing food truck, Gabriel's Taqueria. A crew of three food truck chef's fed the approximately 65 people in attendance. YUM YUM, triple YUM!
The night then continued with three straight hours of music! Thank goodness for a tent because a chill was in the air and a light rain kept the tent a ROCKIN'! Thank you to the Spanton family for the opportunity to fill your entertainment needs! We had a blast with you!

Saturday, we headed to a beautiful 22 acre property nestled in between Fort Atkinson and Jefferson for the second private party of the weekend. This event was for the Schilling Family! They are a wonderful husband/wife duo who have 5 children. The husband is currently battling Stage 4 cancer and makes visits to the Mayo Clinic twice a week, while still working AND raising 5 children! Bless his heart. The event was able to raise a generous $2600 from the 75-ish people in attendance. Thank you to Scott and Jen for the use of your property for this wonderful event. We were honored to be a part of it.
