My First TV Commercial!
Suite Caroline could really be the girl next door...other than the fact she is a home-grown Tampa Bay talent, heralded by some of the industry’s most discerning ears as a musical prodigy. She writes her own songs, has an amazing voice beyond her years and is a top-notch performer and guitar-player. Days after she turned 12, Suite Caroline opened a U22 account at her local GTE Federal Credit Union branch. Being able to manage money in an account built for young adults was a big plus. She earns points by using her U22 debit card towards a trip to Europe, gets alerts on her mobile phone since she is on the road a lot, and set up a savings plan for the guitar of her dreams. Get to know Suite Caroline and follow her journey to the top!
I will never think of strawberries or strawberry jam the same again!!! As for the strawberry jam, that was the name of the contest that GTE Federal Credit Union put on to find a super talented kid to perform with me at the Stingray Chevrolet Tent at the Strawberry Festival 2010.
The winner was Matt W. from Bradenton, Florida, and we had a great JAM last weekend!! It was fun getting to play a duet, and he did awesome for his first big performance – didn’t seem to have any major nerves at all!!!
As for strawberries, well, what can I say about the FLORIDA STRAWBERRY FESTIVAL??? WWOOWW~!!
I got to the stadium really early in the morning the day of my concert, and as soon as I rounded the corner to do sound check I saw my U22 Billboard looking right back at me! I dropped my jaw, and started jumping up and down! I knew it was going to be a great day!! AND IT WAS!!!! Lots of you got to use your preferred seating tickets from the GTE FCU branches. And that was great to look out into that huge crowd and see so many of you that were there to be a part of my big day!! I think the concert went great, but I think the biggest hit was the U22/Suite Caroline guitar pics that I threw out from the stage!! I am still getting requests for those, but they are ALL gone!!! And did you see the awesomely cool ATMs all over the festival grounds? Yep, I was on those too. I have to say that little cartoon of me makes me smile. So thank you GTE FCU, U22 and all the really nice people at the Strawberry Festival. I like to sing about DREAMING BIG, and this was a big one come true!!
