March 2014
A lot of people have been asking me lately if I've been keeping busy this Winter. Yes. Yes I have. Usually, that means I've been traveling, touring, and playing shows all over the place, but not this Winter. I've been a lot more of a homebody this Winter. In fact, at the beginning of the season I had some anxiety about the lack of shows I had scheduled. Now I'm glad I didn't have more gigs. It's been a brutal Winter. I'm ready for the thaw. I'm glad I didn't have to cancel any shows, or make any drives that were excessively long. And in the mean time I've been writing, recording and working with new producers. I was at the recording studio just last night with Justin VanHaven, working on the mixes for my new solo ep. I'm excited about the songs and am glad to see this project nearing completion, but have not scheduled a release date yet. As always, I will keep you posted.

Now you all know that I love Bob Dylan. I do. I really do. And every year around this time I start playing all his records, singing all his songs and trying to decide what songs to play at the Bob dylan tribute. Well, if you want to know what songs I decide to play, I guess you'll have to come to the show, but I can tell you who else will be there. Announcing the lineup for the 7th Annual Tribute to Bob Dylan, Saturday, May 17, 2014. Click here to watch the video and find out who's playing.
Thanks for all your continued support! I hope to see you soon.
