Hi Dean,
TRUE TO LIFE
Thank you so much for sending this my way. I have had a good listen to it and think it is just terrific and how great it is to hear "real" country music, not what the "powers that be" are calling country these days. I will be sure to give this some airplay on my program.
Hope everything is going great for you and I hope the CD is doing good as well.
Thanks again. Bye, take care and kind "country" regards from Aussie land.

Hi dean
Thanks for the new CD you kindly sent me. I heard it twice already and may I say how great it is. I like the music, traditional country of course, the voice and the songs. Will play most of it many times, I'm sure.
Again well done Dean and all the best.
Yours in country,
Vince Laus

Hello Dean,

Dear Dean
Just received your CD TRUE TO LIFE and visited your website.
Dean I absolutely like your music.You deserve a great compliment by writing and performing 10 songs of your own. All the songs have a perfect balance between the singing and using the typical country music instruments. It does not often happen that I like all songs of received CD's and that I can use them all in my upcoming radio programs. The CD TRUE TO LIFE is such one.
You know why because Dean Holmen is NOT ONLY TRUE TO LIFE BUT ALSO TRUE TO REAL NASHVILLE COUNTRY MUSIC. Dean I have decided to make your CD the CD of the month August. That means that all the programs in august are opened with a song of your CD.
We'll keep in touch and congratulations with this beautiful CD.

I wish to thank you for sending me the album "True To Life", by artist Dean Holmen.
The very first review of the album is positive, and I've found several tracks that will fit into our musical policy. That's why this album has been added to our rotation playlist from this week on. I have also added your e-mail address to my e-group for playlists. Please contact me at anytime regarding airplay, information or anything else you wish, I'll love to hear from you.
Thanks so much

Dear Dean,
Just to thank you for the superb collection of songs on your latest album. This is five star quality COUNTRY music. I have been pleased to list 'Dear Hank' as lead song, but any one of the tracks could have been chosen from this album full of country gems. Keep up the Tradition Ole Hank would have been proud of the song addressed to him.
Best regards
Keep on rockin' The Country

Hello Dean,
Thank you for sending your CD. I have listened and find it a very good album with very good songs. Also your voice is very good for this kind of music. Be sure that I'm gonna promote this CD on my show on Radio VRW in Belgium.
Musical greetings

Dear Dean,
A couple of weeks ago I received the copy of your debut album and I now thank you so much for sending it to me. As you can see from the alleged play list, I already played a couple of songs from that CD (including the very fine "Dear Hank" that I also enclosed it in my recent list for the EMS Independent Charts) in my radio show of American roots music here at Radio Voce Spazio 93.800 MHZ. "True To Life" is in fact a simple and honest album of genuine country music and surely more tracks from it will find some air time in the next few weeks!
That's all for now! Please keep in touch and do not hesitate to supply me any new release of yours in the next future. I look forward to hearing you soon and thank you again so much for your kind attention.
All the best,
