Cally – for all her help, advice and guidance. We are so grateful for everything you’ve done and for the opportunities you are giving us. Grateful is an understatement – we really do appreciate everything Cal. You have my utmost respect. We’ve had such a laugh so far (our first band/manager practice really was hilarious) and I know this band is gonna be a lot of fun. Thanks again.

Thanks for being a great manager, lovely friend and another big sister. We are so lucky to have you on board – thanks for everything.
