Hey Phoenix, how ya’ll doin? I’ve been doing well, staying busy as usual, but
loving it! This past week, Barry my road manager and I flew up to BC Canada to
do a show. It was for Country 107.1 out of Abbotsford BC. I haven’t been up to
Canada in the past 5 months, and I was given such a warm welcome from the fans
at the event. The event itself was a very personal show held in a 300 seater
place, and it was awsome because the place was full!!! I went up on stage
expecting to do a 45 minute set, but ended up doing probably over an hour and a half.. The
audience there was just so welcoming to me that I couldn’t leave, so I just
kept singing, haha.. It actually got to a point where it became a request hour,
and I made many attempts at some of my older songs even though I hadn’t played t hem
in ages, and the audience ate that right up and were singing along to pretty
much every word. You had to have been there!! We were up in Canada for just 2
days, and the day we flew out being Thursday, we had to be ready and in the
Lobby for 5 am… ouch hah, once again not much sleep . I’m home in Nashville
now, and I made a stop at William Morris Agency today, and played for a bunch of
the staff there. They are my new booking agency, and I must say that I am
completely thrilled to be part of that family as well!!.. Other than that, I
got a bunch of laundry done this afternoon, and now I’m gonna go and see the
Dark Night movie for the second time. The only difference is, I’m gonna see it in
the IMAX!! That should be pretty cool! Tomorrow I’ll be taking part in the
Monster Truck Rally here in Nashville, and I’ll be doing an acoustic show
with my friends “The Harters”. The Harters are a new family group, and they are
incredible!! Well that’s all for this week wrapped up in a nut shell I will
see you all next week in Phoenix at the KMLE Class of ‘08 concert at Graham Central Station. I’m looking forward to meeting you all - the KMLE Nation!  Thankyou and God Bless!

Hey everyone, hope you’ve all been doing well.. I’m home here in Nashville as
of early this morning, we just arrived in from Orlando Florida! I did a couple
shows between Sarasota and Orlando during the weekend for Carl Black Chevrolet,
and the band and I had a great time!! Have any of you ever been to
Whataburger restaraunt? If you haven’t try and find one and go, because the burgers are
awesome!! We stopped at one on the way home last night and met up with some of
Barry’s (my road manager) family, and hung out for a little while. Then we were
back on the road headed North for Nashville! Everything since the move to Big
Machine Records has been going pretty well. It seems that more and more shows
have been coming in, which is good, and there are a lot of things in the works
for the near future! My mom and dad were in town all last week, and we had a
real nice visit for the time that we got to visit at least. I did a ton of
media interviews and TV interviews Monday and Tuesday of last week, some of
those interviews were with Jeff Foxworthy and Charlie Chase which was pretty
cool. I had Wednesday to spend with my parents which was
nice, so we fit in as much as we could in that one day to make up for the rest
of the time lol.. Other than that, I’ve just been going with the flow.. When
you are a new artist in the States like I am, you don’t always know what’s gonna
happen next so the best thing I’ve found, is to just go with the flow.. I like
to look at the schedule sometimes though just to get an idea of where I’ll be,
so I know for myself.. Today I have the day off, so I’m just gonna soak it in,
maybe go and grab a bite somewhere and then go to a movie later.. I don’t get a
chance to go to movies all that often, and thats something that I really enjoy
doing, so I thought it would be a good opportunity tonight being that I have the
day off That’s pretty much all I’ve been up to, and I will continue to
keep you all in the loop. Thank you guys and God Bless!

Hey guys, how are you doing? I wish I could tell you that I was home in my loft

writing this weekly journal to you, but instead I am  here in the

waiting on my delayed flight to

here, I think it’s a great place, but I am  praying that the flight makes it out

tonight because I have full press days in

Tuesday. Oh well stuff happens and that’s the chance you have to take when

there’s bad weather conditions and you have to fly. On another note, I had the

privilege and honour to sing for a half hour and do the National Anthem at the

Redding Phillies game today, it was awesome!!! That was the second time now that

I’ve performed the anthem live, it felt good and at the same time relieving

to have done it again!! The crowd was very welcoming, as well as all the

staff and organizers of the game:)

Another exciting thing that happened within

the last couple of days was, my parents flew to

totally surprised me… I haven’t seen them for 2 months or more, so it

was a real nice surprise.. They will be staying in Nashville for a week, and

although I have stuff going on while they’re here, its still nice to come home at the

end of the day knowing that they’re here:)

 The Big Machine record deal is going so great, a lot of exciting things in the works! And I was excited because we were able to hire Shelley who was one of my record reps from Midas Records onto our team again… She is an awesome person to have around and that made me very happy:)!  Unfortunately in the business stuff happens, and when I moved to Big Machine Records, the promotions team from Midas were let go.. It was hard

to see that happen, but unfortunately it does happen, and I pray that all those

wonderful people I worked with at Midas are filled with many more opportunities.

I’m very excited to be with Big Machine as I had mentioned in my last journal I

know they are the best, and it is going to be exciting to see what they can do.  I’m just thrilled to be a part of the family! Thank you everyone for staying tuned every week to these journals , and I will talk to you next week… God Bless ag)

Dated 8/10/08

Adam plays an acoustic set for the KMLE Nation ACM trip winners.

BIG things are happening for the KMLE’s Year in the Career artist - Adam Gregory!  Read Adam’s newest blog here (dated August 5, 2008)

Hey guys… wow, where to start where to start… It’s been quite the week for
me, and for everyone involved in my career for that matter. I’ve now become part of the Big Machine Record label
family, and I couldn’t be more thrilled!!!! The deal got finalized a few days
ago and already good stuff has been happening! I’m so grateful for what Midas records
has done for me to date, and I’m so excited to see where Big Machine can take
it from here.. I met today with all the crew at Big Machine Records along with my
team of people and I tell you, what an amazingly dedicated staff of people they
are, I was impressed!!! They were very welcoming and just as excited as I 
am to venture into this partnership:) Big Machines roster includes… Taylor
Swift, Trisha Yearwood, Garth Brooks, Jack Ingram, Danielle Peck just to name a few.< BR> So as you can see I’m in good hands. Since I wrote to you last week
and before the Big Machine stuff became public, I made an appearance in downtown
Colorado Springs at the So Do club.  We had an amazing view of the mountains from where we were, we could see Pikes Peek in the distance.
Anybody that has been to Colorado springs would know just how beautiful that
is! I had the pleasure of doing the show with an up and coming artist named
Katie Armiger, and she did an amazing job I must say. I brought along Mark my lead
guitar player to accompany me, and we were again blown away with the crowd
response… They were into the songs, and there was even a lady in the front
row that seemed to know all the words to my songs, that was
impressive for sure.. Again, that’s a big deal to an artist when his or her
fans can sing all the words to there songs to the point where the artist can
basically stop singing at any point during the song, and know that that person
can continue singing, it’s awsome!! From there Barry my road manager, Mark and
I drove about an hour and half back to Denver where we ended up
staying the night. We caught an early red eye back to Nashville the next
morning.. I wanted add to this blog by saying that my band has been superb by
the way since being down in Nashville, I think you all know by now that they’ve
been living at my loft, it’s been quite comfy cozy haha.. No really, it’s been
great, we all get along and I don’t think theres been one argument that I’ve
witnessed since they’ve been here, which is awesome.. I totally appreciate the
fact that the band has dedicated every Monday morning as band meeting day, where they
talk and bring up interesting points about not only improving the show, but
how to maintain the loft and keep it clean. They’ve actually gone as far as
assigning chores to everyone so that everything runs smoothly at the loft. That kinda
team work really helps me out and it keeps the loft looking half decent: Back
to the music lol,, I’m just really really excited about all that’s happening!!!
I’m so incredibly thankful to God for all this, and for the fact that he has
sent this amazing team of people into my life to help further my career. It
really is a huge team effert to make a career come off the ground, and I will
forever be appreciative for everyones input and support.. You guys are amazing
people as well and know that the support is appreciated tremendously. I couldn’t
do it without all of you either, so thank you.. Anyways, I’m going to sign off
now and try and get some shut eye, so I will talk to you all again the start of
next week.. God Bless!

Hey guys, how y’all doing? The band and I have had somewhat of a busy week,  it’s been awesome though!! The band and I are doing a lot of shows for radio station all over the USA. This past week we started off in Detroit. We took the bus there and played at Coyote Joe’s, and I tell you, what a great crowd! The band and I got up on stage and did about a 45 minute set playing all the new songs, put in a Vince Gill song to split it up a little and then ended the show with Crazy Days… it was a better turnout then we could’ve imagined. See the thing is, I’ve had a 10 year career in Canada already, sold a few albums, but unfortunately what I had built up in Canada couldn’t follow me down here to the US, so basically it’s starting right back at point A. Not saying that the success I had in Canada didn’t help things, because the record label obviously saw potential in the band and I, but that’s about as far as we could go on that… It’s all good though, because we are having a blast, the shows have been going real well, and the audiences have been wonderful! Now to leave off where I started, we started off in Detroit, and then made our way to Grand Rapids, and took part in the taste of Grand Rapids, and did a 60 minute show to another amazing audience! From Grand Rapids, we drove all night and landed in York Pennsylvania. We were able to take in the York Revolution game (York’s Baseball Team), and the band and I were the after-game entertainment.. They set us up in an area off to the side, not the field itself, but another area, and we played to an excited crowd of probably 300 I’d say, and just had an amazing time. I saw people actually sing along to Crazy Days, and any artist would tell you that that’s a pretty amazing thing to witness:) From there Scott, the on air radio DJ from 107.7, picked up my bus driver Big Dave, and brought him back and soon after we were leaving, and on route to Nashville.  I’m doing the past weeks worth of laundry now, and I picked up some groceries at Walmart early today. I also worked out for about an hour and half; that felt good:) ,I’m sure I’ll have more cool stuff to tell you next week.  Thank you guys, I appreciate you all.  Goodnight:) God Bless!

Hey guys, I thought I would just email to let you know that the band and I just
did two shows this past week.. We Visited Des Moines Iowa, and also Madison
Wisconsin… the State of Cheese curds! The shows went over real well, the band
and I are really getting more and more into our groove:) It’s really cool to
witness the comfort zone between us all on stage, and it just gets more and more
relaxed. We’ve done a ton of shows in the past decade in Canada, but there was
times when we went months without playing because I was down here in Nashville
and they were in Canada, so it’s great to get out and play more and more! I’m
writing wit h my producer Keith Follese tomorrow at 10:30 am, so if all goes
well, we will get a good song out of it.. It’s an exciting process for sure to
watch a song come to life:) I’m also writing with Keith on Tuesday same time as
well. Other then that, I’m continually making phone calls into all the radio
stations that have added and supported my single Crazy Days, it’s just a way of
showing my appreciation for all there support:) I head out again Wednesday
Evening at around 8ish, and my band and I are heading to Detroit to do an
acoustic show for radio. I’m looking forward to that! Thank you guys for
reading my daily blogs, I appreciate the support you all give me, and I hope
that I keep these journals interesting enough for you all:) I’m heading to bed
now, so I’ll talk to you all next week… God Bless!

Hey guys, I had a whirlwind of a week this week! Once again I truly appreciate
your help in helping me achieve my goals and dreams, you really are the best. I
had a blast taking the bus out to Akron Ohio (WQMX), and Indianapolis (WFMS)
for two fun shows. Once again the people at the shows and the staff at radio
made the trip worth while, and go so quick! In Indianapolis we had the chance
to play for the staff and in Akron we played to a packed house of listeners and
staff. After a good night’s rest we headed back to Nashville and fun was waiting
for us! As some of you may know I celebrated my 23rd birthday this pa st week(
July 12) and due to commitments out of town on my actual birthday I celebrated
with my band and some of my closest friends on Thursday night. We all went
bowling and played a lot of awesome video games at “Dave & Busters”, no not a
friends place but an actual business that specializes in making everybody feel
like a kid. It really was a great party, it means so much to me to have great
friends around when family is so far away. It made my birthday even more special
reading all of your wonderful birthday wishes on my website and my myspace page.
I am always amazed how you guys think of me even with your lives being so full
of day to day events and busy schedules. I then headed out for a little R&R time
to catch my breath. I returned back to Nashville on Sunday night and I was off
after a few short hours of sleep to a writers retreat that I will fill you in on
next week.
Thanks for spending a little time with me aga in this week, sometimes I don’t
know which way I am headed but as long as I have fans like I do, I know I will
always be welcome!
God Bless!

Hey it’s AG… how are you guys? Today has been another very productive day for me. It started off with going to media training for a couple of hours. I find that this training is very helpful to me in dealing with the press on a day to day basis. I normally wouldn’t be the type that would want to do media training, but it’s been great because Donna, the lady that’s helping me is taking what I already know and just critiquing and fine tuning it. This is a time in my career where I am learning how to deal with new situations and preparing myself to deal with them in a positive way. This training will help make my responses to questions asked even better. Just as honest as ever but in more detail. Therefore I can still be who I am, but progress and get better at dealing with media as well as my fans. Once I was done with the media training today, I was met by my publicity team from Aristo Media. We went over to the Music Row magazine building where I met and sang to the great folks that work there. I was so honored to sing “Down The Road”, “What it takes”, “Tell me I can’t, and my current single “Crazy Days, they were super kind and welcoming. After that I had some time to kill, so I took my truck to the car wash and gave it a good over due cleaning. Now I’m just sitting here at home, got a little laundry done, and I’m gonna go hit the gym tonight. Staying in shape and being healthy is very important to me. Talk to you all next week, thank you and God Bless
