The past year my dad, J Parson, pushed his music career ever higher with the release of his fifth CD.

I had about 12 hours from interviewing Evan Gregory from the group to having to send the piece into my editor. A bit nerve-wracking since I haven’t written anything since July but it went exceptional well.

My January saw partiers, beachgoers and teenagers. All in all, it wasn’t a bad start to 2011.
