For an Independent musician, there are a lot of steps to take to get your music heard. But for a singer/songwriter named David Parrish, it's one step at a time as he plans to walk from Spokane, WA. to Nashville, playing his music all along the way.

Parrish says that the 2,000 mile walk will give him an opportunity to let his music be heard by people he meets along the way, and will hopefully gain the attention he needs for the music industry to take notice.

You see, the walk is not just about the music.

Parrish says that he will be donating one dollar for every mile that he walks to the Wishing Star Foundation. Similar to the "Make-A-Wish" organization, Wishing Star grants wishes to children aged 3 to 21 who are terminally ill. Additionally, Parrish will be selling his CD titled Just The Way You Are, with a portion of the proceeds also going to Wishing Star.

David Parrish is a member of the Branson Independent Coalition of Musicians and Artists (Branson ICMA), and CDs can be ordered by clicking this link:

At 54 years old, Parrish says he expects the walk should take about 80 days to complete, and hopes the effort will be of major benefit to the children of Wishing Star, as well as his music career.

The purpose of the Branson ICMA is to keep the tradition of Independent entertainment in the Ozarks, and around the world, alive and available. This is where musicians, song writers, performers, record labels and enthusiasts gather to be seen and heard through the resources of the Ozark Internet Radio Network and Branson World Radio. Heard in 43 States and 33 Countries around the world on the Internet, and by millions through broadcast radio affiliates, Branson's FIRST I-Radio Network has created the ICMA (Independent Coalition of Musicians and Artists) as a unique method for entertainers to market their works, while giving listeners and fans a means to enjoy their favorite music in it's truest form.

With five years of research and development, the Branson ICMA is now accepting applications for membership. Member performers will become involved in an intense marketing effort which includes I-Radio and Radio play of their works, Product Distribution, audience interaction, e-marketing, and Live performances at ICMA events. Supporting Members (non-performers) will receive monthly newsletters about ICMA events and specials, entertainer news, Branson events, and the monthly "Music Lovers" e-catalog, which highlights the latest CD's and DVD's from ICMA Member Artists.
