Well, the 2007 FMCA Pearl Awards were amazing. Sitting under the blue hue of the spotlights, surrounded by numerous LDS musical celebrities. The air was filled with the ambient noise of greetings and congratulations between the artists. I saw handfuls of my mission CD player heroes, Jenny Jordan Frogley, Alex Boye, Cherie Call, and Julie De Azevedo just to name a few. There were live performances by artists great food and excellent desserts.
We sat next to Jessie Clark Funk and her husband Jim. She was really sweet and taked to us all night. Here is some of her music:
Alex Boye won an award for the Performing Artist of the Year. Here is some of his music:
One of the neatest things about this evening was how good these people were. They had amazing voices, and I truly believe that they could be making an impact on a much larger music scene. It is cool however that they were using their talents for good, by singing uplifting, spiritual songs.
Overall it was a great night, Andrea and I had a great time and we were glad that we had the opportunity to go.
