Katrina Burgoyne :Little Aussie Beauty with Big Country Dreams

 Hi everybody...Sorry for the extremely late post (I`m trying to figure out a way to post more so please bare with me) Hope this makes up for it, I think its a lovely piece about an incredible lady.

 A few months ago I go to my +Instagram as we all do, greeted by a host of likes and follows. And of course our natural curiosity  causes us to "tap" on said liker/follower to see who this person is and normally casually, courteously, you respond in kind with your own "like" and or" follow" and this day I ran onto +Katrina Burgoyne . Katrina is from Gunnedah, South Wales Australia...she`s a photographer, a former contestant on their version of +The Bachelor  and she sings country.

 So I found my way to her website www.katrinaburgoyne.com where she speaks of her dream of coming to America and making it big in Nashville which ironically is the name of her mini cd  she was selling to raise money to come US, and her hard work finally paid off. January of this year she packed up her belongings and is currently pursuing that dream in Nashville
My nephew and I drove up to Nashville this past weekend because he was on school break and to just get out of the city. And Katrina had two shows at +The Row Kitchen & Pub and we were not disappointed in the least she was amazing.

 Her hour long performance included original tunes as well as covers including the Jackson 5`s "I  anwant you Back.
