Day 25: A Christmas Message from John Reilly:
I would like to personally thank you for your amazing support this year at my performances with Lewis, Dolphin and Angels. All your kind and encouraging messages throughout the year have meant so much and given me a real purpose to write new songs and strive to be better as a writer and musician. On my behalf and your behalf I would like to thank Elaine Alexander for her dedicated and invaluable help throughout the year keeping you informed of upcoming events and monitoring ticket sales. She has been amazing.
I wish you all a very merry and peaceful Christmas and a very happy and healthy new year and look forward to sharing my music with you in 2019. X
