CALL FOR ARTISTS- DB CUSTOMS COMPILATION BENEFIT CD -

fellow CBG players. Darren Brown of Nova Scotia is currently waiting a complete liver transplant and I was hoping to get some fellow DB CUSTOMS owners to show some support for this amazing builder and plan to put together a compilation of songs to help raise a little bit of money to relieve some of Darren's expenses.

The idea is an album full of songs played on DB CUSTOMS Cigar Box guitars by different owners from all over. If you own a DB customs build and would like to donate a track to the project, please email me your track at oldssleeper@yahoo.com. I want to get this set up soon, so please consider sending tracks before July 12.

also please share this with anyone you may know that owns one of Darren's fine guitars. thanks for your help folks. Olds

Comment by olds sleeper on July 6, 2014 at 1:20am: THis album will be up on JULY 14....make sure you give it a listen and consider giving Darren a tip in the old tip jar...its gonna be a great, diverse, and amazingly mostly well-recorded cigarbox compilation.

Comment by Uncle John on June 28, 2014 at 9:30am: Nice idea. I am with James in what he said about DB and his guitars. And I don't have one either. That lucky Wes!

Comment by James on June 25, 2014 at 1:21pm: db has build some of the finest cbg's ever made, unfortunately i do not have one, i hate to hear he is sick, and am wishing him well !!!
