The 2012 Baker Artist Awards encourage all <a href="http://www.bakerartistawards.org/about-awards/#eligible">Baltimore area artists</a>working in any creative discipline to register, exhibit their work, comment on others’ work, select favorite works, promote the site to friends, enjoy the broad public attention given to the site and compete for the Mary Sawyers Baker Prizes and b-grant awards.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Yesterday we lost one of the most influential dobro, and steel players our community has ever heard. His playing, and humor touched the lives of so many, and we count ourselves lucky for having the opportunity to play music with him. His haunting dobro, and slick steel licks will be ever etched in our minds, and will be missed.</p>
<p>Our thoughts and prayers go out to Pam, Axel, Carter, and all of Dave&#8217;s family and friends.</p>
<p>&#8220;I wanna&#8217; see big smiles out there tonight boys&#8230;..&#8221;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Here&#8217;s what <a href="http://raysrealm.blogspot.com/" target="_self">RAYSREALM</a> had to say about out latest record:</p>
<blockquote><p>First song in, Ed Hough’s vocals begin telling of his longing for “Sweet Amanda” over an upbeat, infectious melody and I’m hooked already.</p></blockquote>
<p>Goes on to say…</p>
<blockquote><p>In all, pulling “A Few More Miles” out of that ocean of local CD’s a few weeks back was a shot in the dark… The only thing that’s left is for me to check these guys out live sometime, because I’m sure they can lay it down like nobody’s business. Highly recommended!</p></blockquote>
