Naomi Judd! Need I say more? What an honor it is to be the editor of this
magazine that is featuring such an iconic country superstar. Growing up in north
Florida and having family in Alabama and Texas, I am very much a southern girl
myself. I can remember as a child many different varieties of music echoing off of
our walls, but the one sound that I always gravitated to was that of country music. My
philosophy on country music is that no matter how much of it you listen to, it never
gets old. The reason it never gets old is because in general, country music contains
lyrics about realistic situations that all of us deal with in everyday life. By the same
token, there is never any shortage of things to write about since “everyday” life is
actually very interesting. There are stories told from the heart that touch the lives of
those who listen, since we can all relate to these “typical” circumstances. And not
only does country music tell stories that touch the heart, but often times it makes us
laugh since so much of day-to-day life has a humorous side to it. The Foothills Times
is honoring Naomi Judd this month in her amazing lifelong career as a multi-talented
country music singer, song writer and activist. She is an inspiration to female country
musicians and enthusiasts (like me) everywhere.
The Foothills Times has really gone above and beyond in this edition to
bring to its viewers something fresh and captivating. We hope that our fifth edition of
2014 brings an extra special smile to your faces to see a legend such as Naomi Judd
on the cover, and to share in some of her exclusive Foothills Times commentary. As
always, we say thank you to our loyal readers and enjoy!
