The Love Willows, featuring Hope Partlow, checked in with fans with a video blog. Hope and Ryan Wilson talked about how Hope’s vocals are done on the new album, dealing with the snow and making a dirty looking snowman – which they had a clip of, pesky next door kids who drop kicked the snowman, then showed a clip of a performance with their young friend Ben.
The update has since been removed at YouTube.

There’s been a lot going on lately, so sorry for the lack of updates. We just played our first full band show on Saturday night and it was a blast! Our new friend, Gary Kyle Jones, was kind enough to video most of our set. There’s still a few kinks to work out, for sure, but we had a great time and the crowd was perfect! Enjoy the show!” Watch performances of ‘A Day in My Life’, ‘Strut My Stuff’, ‘Almost There’, ‘Mary Jane’, ‘Keep Your Head Up’, and ‘Old Time Rock N Roll’ here.

Hope Partlow checked in with fans on her Myspace on Monday (July 23) with the following blog entry: “Hello everybody! I am totally [psyched] to tell you guys everything that has been happening! Alright, where do I start… at first there was just me. I released an album only to be dropped a month later in 2005. When I was touring my first album, I met Ryan (my guitar player on the road). I have found that he is an amazing guitar player, singer, and songwriter. We decided to become a duo. We made an acoustic album with the songs that we wrote and we have played some shows around Atlanta. While searching for a keys player and harmony singer, we met a chick who by far exceded all expectations! After some thought, we decided to ditch the duo and become a true band! We plan on turning the Hope & Ryan myspace page into The Willows myspace page. Things are moving really fast here lately!! We (The Willows) just got back from being in LA recording some demos. Hopefully, really soon we will have the songs up for the whole world to hear!! Thanks for stopping by and reading my crazy long blog. See you soon!! Oh, and i got a little bit of a trim. Peace, love, -hope”
