    Was so excited to see Houston on the Cheap giving hype to our concert at Cactus tomorrow. It will be the full band, Leah White & The Magic Mirrors. It’s perfect for families b/c it’s hot outside and there is AC in Cactus (beer helps:), kids can run around and then you can take them to Amy’s Ice Cream right after!!! Nap time is Guaranteed!!!!
    Buy the new album, SPRINKLER, on my website at http://www.LeahWhiteMusic.com or at Cactus. The Houston Zoo has picked up this song as their official song.
    Will also be on Lone Star Jukebox at 10:45am with the band on 90.1. Tune in!!!
