A few weeks back I had the blessing of taking my little sweetie to our first Daddy daughter dance at Santa Fe Christian. What a very special moment. “Til the Sky Turns Down the Lights I’m Not Missing Anything”. There is no other explanation other than God opened up the heavens and let it rain down blessings on me. She is the light of my life, my baby girl. We ran into some friends Mark Forman and Mclaren Pinnell. #thebestmoments #memories #mylittleangel #daddydaughterdance #santafechritianschool

For many years I worked hard to obtain sponsors for my craft and many times I was turned down. Dunlop gave me a shot and I can’t thank them enough for believing in my talent.  I released that when all else fails the only thing left to do is try again and never give up. Thank you Jim Dunlop for helping me achieve my dreams. #dunlop #sponsor #stevenybarramusic #stevenybarra #taylorguitars #mercedes #wholefoods #adidas #elixirstrings #line6 #nashville #sandiego #countrymusic #grammys #CMAawards #ACMawards #countryhitmusic #bestcountryradio #applem #shure #shuremicrophones #korg #yamaha #apple #icemanshow #jimmyfallon

Floyd Rose was the 1st official manager of my career. I wanted to thank him and give him a shout out. He did in many ways revolutionize the way electric guitars sound and are played, along with Eddie Van Halen. Blessings to you Floyd. #stevenybarramusic #stevenybarra #taylorguitars #mercedes #adidas #elixirstrings #nashville #sandiego #countrymusic #grammys #CMAawards #ACMawards #countryhitmusic #bestcountryradio #apple #karray #conan #goodmorningamerica #shuremicrophones #yamaha #apple #icemanshow #jimmyfallon #austincitylimits #kaboomusicfestival #kaboodelmar #stagecoach

Hi, I wanted to share with you all a little throw back Thursday. I saw this car parked on the side of the road and was taken back just how much times have changed. Wow! This is a beautiful 1953 Cadillac Eldorado, from a much simpler time. #Cadillac #eldorado #TBT #stevenybarramusic #stevenybarra #taylorguitars #mercedes #wholefoods #adidas #elixirstrings #senneheiser #line6 #nashville #sandiego #countrymusic #grammys #CMAawards #ACMawards #countryhitmusic #bestcountryradio #apple #hallmark #karray #hashtag #franklin #conan #goodmorningamerica #whatireallywanttosay #jimdunlop #shure shuremicrophones #korg #yamaha #apple #icemanshow #jimmyfallon #austincitylimits #danhuff #kaboomusicfestival #kaboodelmar #stagecoach

Last night I said goodbye to a friend and mentor - Martin Grusin, my vocal coach. A dozen or so of his students performed at the Belly Up in Solana Beach for what turned out to be a beautiful celebration of his life. In this photo I am sandwiched between two of the best female vocalists in San Diego, Eve Selis and Mary James. It was really a blessing to catch up with Martin’s family and friends. A special thank you to Ray and Kim McKewon for organizing this wonderful tribute. I look forward to staying in touch all of you. Blessings!
