Front Row & Backstage | Brad Kyle

Recommended by Brad Kyle

A newsletter about the joys I find or create along the way, through music, through hiking, through learning to live life on life’s terms. One song at a time, one hike at a time, one day at a time...

Inspirational and infinitely relatable, Mark and his "Journey" is a Joy to experience! I've always enJoyed his generous sharing (with plenty o' pix!) of his hiking adventures with his wife, and his love of music is another Joy to experience! A great friend of FRONT ROW & BACKSTAGE, let Mark's Journey bring you Joy to your day!

Steve offers a popular song (usually in the classic or hard rock lane), and adds a personal anecdote or peek into how the song affected his life in some way! A unique approach!
