Next Stop MS | NYE Sneaker Ball @ The Ice House & "Just a Christmas Wish" by Sonny Ashlan and Kathleen Austen

Break our your flyest kicks for our first stop at this year's NYE Sneaker Ball at the Ice House in Jackson, December 31st, with event organizers, Steven C. James and Anitra Williams, then we're off to check out What's Happening Around Your Neck of the Woods!

For our final stops of the day, we’ll enjoy musical selections from not only one artist but two! The first selection was co-written and co-produced by one of our biggest fans and regular caller to MPB Think Radio, Katleen from Osyka aka Kathleen Austen! The tune, “Just a Christmas Wish,” is a song from the heart, performed by Sonny Ashlan, dedicated to the men and women of the armed services, who, because of duty to their country, are so far apart from home and family… the second selection is a throwback from this November, when viral sensation violinist, John Uzodinma joined us and performed his version of Rufus featuring Chaka Khan’s 1975 smash hit, Sweet Thing in studio! Stay tuned, buckle up and hold on tight for your Next Stop MS!
