Jammin' with Jed Clampit and Jeff Fox
Well its not every day that you get to sit in on a private concert with one of NW Arkansas' Local Legends and a Rising Star on the local scene in one setting, but it is something totally else to get to jam with them....when your 5 years old. Today, Jackson Paul Heck was able to do just that. It was at the 70th B-day party of Boyd (Papa) and Floyd Harris, held at Greg and Tamara Sparrows house (Cousins), and we had invited Jed Clampit and Jeff "Foxy" Fox to come and provide some pickin' and grinnin'....both are friends of the family. Jackson had jammed once before with Jed and others over at the sparrows before Christmas (2005) and had received an acccordian from Santa. So when I told him that Jed would be playing today, he ran back in the house and grabbed the accordian.Almost instantly upon entering the Sparrow's house did Jackson make his way to the garage stage. He plopped right down in a chair and started playing right along. It was great and both Jed and Jeff loved it, giving pointers to which keys to play (and where they were located) and eventually Jackson made his way up into Jeff's chair (and on his mic) when he took a break. Soon it was the three of them playing and singing along. When it was over, Jed gave Jackson "aka Dash" an autographed CD cover too.

We may just have a star on our hands so look for the upcoming album, soon to be downloadable from iTunes.
