Beth Watts Nelson - Little Miss Dynamite!

I love listening to my DJ Brother Scott Stanton’s River Trade Radio Show on KKFI on Sunday Mornings.  Not too long ago I heard an amazing voice on his show that stopped me in my tracks.  It was Beth Watts Nelson also now known as Little Miss Dynamite from right here in the Heartland.  I knew I had to get to know her and have her on my radio show. I reached out to Beth right away; as a middle school teacher in the throes of finishing up her 20th year as a middle school choral director, it took a couple of months for us to find a date that worked with both of our schedules.  The following conversation is our initial meeting.  As you’ll hear, Beth has been writing songs and singing most of her life with the support of her amazing family.  She has taken a huge leap of faith with her new project, the Notorious Chorus, a group vocal and harmony singing workshop for those who like to sing whether a beginner or seasoned professional.  And for the record, I did sign up for the inaugural group and at the recording of this episode we’re nearly through our 4-week session.  I have never sung in public, except maybe the National Anthem and Happy Birthday, so this was a big leap for me.  I’m having a blast and Beth is a total pro!
