The weather has been pretty crazy everywhere this year, and Nashville is no exception with four different storms leaving accumulation on the ground. I was able to snowboard down a paved road one especially snowy Friday night. I am in the studio with Nashville producer Bob Tyler mixing down my album, and its starting to sound like a record!
TONIGHT!! I am excited to be back playing at the Basement as part of the New Faces series. There is an industry showcase that starts at 7pm, and then the series sets start around 8pm, finishing up around 10pm. This will be my first show at the Basement playing as a trio. Dan Seymour is joining me on the bass, and Joe Giotta on the drums. We will be debuting a new song that I wrote with my friend Jeremy Garrett.
MARCH MADNESS – KNOXVILLE / BLACK MOUNTAIN
On my first mini-tour of the year, I will be playing in Knoxville for the first time, and returning to Black Mountain, North Carolina after a great first show in the Fall there. Both shows will be solo acoustic and are free admission.
