Stars Trekking For The Kids
Kerry Kennedy and Billy Sell are members of country rock band Double Barrel.
 
On the 15th of April the boy's head off with Irish entertainer Patrick
McKinley to Mt Isa to start in the S.I.D.S and kids trek heading up to
Darwin and then back to Roma.

For the last 5 years the band has entered a car in the Trek taking them all
over Queensland and now all over the Northern Territory.

Kennedy's affiliation with the S.I.D.S foundation started back in 1999 when
he wrote a song entitled "Single Tear" for the foundation dedicated to his
nephew Cory who passed away in 1991 aged 6 months.

Since then he has been an ambassador for the cause to help find a reason
these babies are dying.

" We have a lot of support in the community both from here on the Gold Coast
and from my home town in Dalby" Kennedy said. "Carmichael Builders in Dalby
have been fantastic, this is the third year in a row they have come on board
with us.

Robina Plumbing (Graham Elton former Dalby boy) have sponsored us for two
years

As has Sun State Interiors (Burleigh Heads) and the Old Bastards (Burleigh
Division).

This year we have 2 new sponsors in the way of Fisherman's Wharf Tavern
(Gold Coast) and Charlton Tyres (Toowoomba)

And a special thanks has to go to Billy Bark for all his mechanical prowess
in keeping the car safe sound and efficient

And to all these businesses we are truly grateful".

Germany star records Aussie Boys song
By David Harden
Germany's youngest country star Tommy Roberts Jr has recorded 3 songs
written by singer songwriter Kerry Kennedy for his upcoming album.

The pair met at a concert they were both performing at in Switzerland, where
Kennedy had success with the title track of his second album "Glass of Wine"

Tommy was drawn to one of Kennedy's songs "I Must have been dreaming" off
the third album "Goin Home", and recorded the song in February

"I Must have been dreaming" "Goin Home" and "Big Rig" are the three songs
Tommy Roberts Jr has recorded, and it is due to be released in Europe later
this year.

"It has been such a great start to the year," Kennedy said. "The album
passed all our old records sales in Tamworth, our first single off the album
"Big Grin Baby" was placed in the top 5 songs of the I.C.E. awards,
publishers in the States are interested in my songs and we are working on a
distribution deal at the moment, all this and the overseas news is just
fantastic."

Kennedy's band Double Barrel will be touring throughout Queensland and New
South Wales to promote the new album "The Moods About To Change in August
and September, as well as a short promotion trip to New Caledonia in May

The band is also in negotiations with promoters in Europe to tour over there
in March 2008.

The new single "When I Die" will be released in May along with a video clip
on CMC.

All in all 2007 is shaping up to be a busy one for the cruises of country
And when the boys hit your town "The Moods About To Change"
