Billy McLaughlin performed at church last weekend; some of you might remember him from the Minnesota music scene (he's a five-time MN Music Award winner). Life turned on its side when he was diagnosed with an incurable neuromuscular disease which eventually rendered him unable to play guitar. Amazingly, he taught himself to play his signature hammer-style, left-handed! Here's a clip from his soon-to-be-released documentary:
You can pick up his beautiful new Christmas CD (called "Simple Gifts") at the church bookstore for $15.99 (I just saw it there today while picking up my new CD for a STEAL). The hours are kind of wacky so you might want to call ahead to see when they are open...
