Happy New Year to all of our friends! We hate to see 2019 go because it was such an eventful year for us here at Flip Flop Live. We began this journey earlier in the year and the success and support that we've recieved has been much more than ever expected. To put the cherry on top the CBMA members awarded us the 2019 Michael Branch Award. Happy New Year and thank you for everything this past year and we can't wait to see what's in store for Flip Flop Live and Beach Music!

From us here at Flip Flop Live, we're so happy to hear that he's doing better and we can't wait to see him back on stage. We had the pleasure of seeing Billy perform with Cat5 during the ECSC Fall Breeze event and he's doing a great job. In his post he mentioned " He sends his regards and wants everyone to know he will be back with Cat5 Band soon. He also wants to thank everyone for your prayers, text messages, cards and donations to help him and his family during this challenge in his life! God is great and in control".
