Bill Nash Performs & Talks About “Legends for Kids” at Azarelli’s

The Greater Katy Exchange will host Bill Nash, song writer and professional singer as speaker at their membership meeting on December 3rd, 2008, 6:30 PM at Azzarelli’s Italian Restaurant, 22764 Westheimer Parkway and Peek Rd, Katy, TX. The main focus Nash will be talking about is “Legends 4 Kids” -  featuring Stars of the Grand Ole Opry on February 14, 2009 Verizon Wireless Theater in Houston, which benefits the Champions Kids Camp and the ESCAPE Family Resource Center. He will also sing a few songs for the folks in attendance.

Nash3, a dynamic singing-songwriting trio has, over the past several years, blended their collective talents into a truly unique, one-of-a-kind sound comprised of Bill and Kim Nash and their youngest son, Jimmy.

Bill and Kim share strikingly similar backgrounds, both being preachers’ kids. As a member of The Beltone Family Singers, Kim performed gospel music from coast to coast from the time she was eight years old. Bill also grew up in a family gospel group, The Nash Family Trio, who recorded several albums for Columbia Records. As a songwriter, Bill started his career with a couple of cuts by the legendary Eddy Arnold. In 1980, in late 1994, superstar Reba McEntire recorded a song that Kim and Bill collaborated on which became a top five hit single entitled, “They Asked About you.”

That song was included in McEntire’s Greatest Hits Vol. II, an album that went to #1 and has currently sold over six million copies. Their latest hit is “In God We Still Trust”, which was not only a #1 independent record for Nash3, but was recorded by country supergroup, Diamond Rio, on Arista Nashville Records. Since the worldwide release of the single and music video, it has become increasingly popular, and is quickly becoming a patriotic standard. Today, Bill, Kim, and Jimmy continue to write and sing unique and down to earth songs that touch the heart of their listeners.
