My birthday celebration this year was topped off with a special treat. My husband surprised me with tickets to see James Taylor and Jackson Browne in Kansas City, MO last night. Road trip! ❤️

So excited!

You Can Closer Your Eyes
Happy tired

Four hours of life’s soundtrack from these two artists who are still going strong. Both in their seventies, I was amazed at their energy. Inspired by their love for what they do. Sharing the power of connection that lives in their music.

I hope to write more about this event. But right now, I want to bask in the harmony beyond music. It started with those sweet kindergarteners and continued right until the final note of last night’s concert.

So close your eyes
You can close your eyes, it’s alright
I don’t know no love songs
I can’t sing the blues anymore
Oh but I can sing this song
You can sing this song when I’m gone-James Taylor

  2. Oh Kelley…how absolutely wonderful. Happy Birthday to you! JT has been a favorite for many, many years. I’ve loved Jackson Browne for a very, very long time. Their music (and lyrics) are the soundtrack of my life for sure. One more way I feel we are connected. ❤️ So glad you enjoyed it so much! 🎼🎉
