I hope you enjoyed the posts from this past week of CMA Music Festival activity. I’ve got more for you when I find the editing time. I want to thank Gene Hemphill with New Holland for sponsoring my coverage of the event. I also want to make sure I mention and thank Holly Fritz, H.B. Fritz & Associates, Inc., because she and her husband John did a great job with logistics and making everything run smoothly.

This week on the ZimmCast I’ve got an interview with Paula Milton, CMA Director of Business Development. We talked about the whole idea of marketing country music and agriculture. With this being the second year of the New Holland sponsorship and the Michael Peterson/New Holland Celebrity Tractor Race I figured she would have made some evaluation of how the relationship is working. As you’ll hear her say, it’s not only positive but I think she’d like to see it continue to grow.

The program ends with music from the Podsafe Music Network and a band called 77 South. The song is “A Country Song.”
