<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN" style="font-size:12.0pt;color:#1D2129">CADL is excited to announce the winner of our Capital Area Cover Song Contest, The Swift Brothers! They will receive a $500 gift card from Marshall Music and perform at the 2019 Common
Ground Music Festival in Lansing. During our Libraries Rock Summer Reading Program, singers and bands were invited to cover
<i>Right Here</i> by local singer Taylor Taylor. Her song inspired our “Everything Right Here” tagline and is used in our branding commercials (<a href="https://bit.ly/2xgx6TL">https://bit.ly/2xgx6TL</a></span><span lang="EN" style="font-size:12.0pt">).

Entertainment, CADL members and staff can enjoy discounts on shows like Disney’s On Ice – Frozen, Marvel Universe Live, Mannheim Steamroller and Elf the Musical. There will also be promotions that link shows to library services and cast and crew interviews
