Gogo plans to mix two of his freaky circus songs with Jim Blair (from Circle of Wings) along with the first CASHMORE song.
Unfortunately, the opera singer Chrystal Cashmore was in a bad car accident a month ago. But, she is recovering well, and will be singing again soon! All updates on the CASHMORES and CIRCLE OF WINGS will be posted here soon!
