Hello!
its been a while since we posted, but its about time since we have some exciting news and shows coming up. First off, a special performance this sunday at The Orphanage in Chicago with our friend Donna Frost, former Johnny Cash Singer and Whiskey drinker! We will be performing songs from her upcoming release and will be headed to Nashville in a couple weeks to kick off our tour with her.
Also we will finally have some merch! We just finished approving some cool t-shirt designs which will be available soon along with an EP of our unreleased songs, which will also include some of the more popular tunes from the hardest parts, which has been doing well….
Check out a review of “The Hardest Parts” on the Suite101.com, among other press coming out of the woodwork here:

or click here to see a review on Americana UK which gave “The Hardest Parts” a generous 7 out of 10.
For those of you who are newer friends and fans “The Hardest Parts” is my previous released 2008 solo record which features Jeff Brown, Christine Knodle & Jason P.Tros, Thanks to your continued support our previous work is getting noticed!
That being said we have been working hard on new songs and arrangements which will be released after the upcoming ep which may or may not be in the form of two records, released one after the other. The reason being one will be more in the vein of folk/country and the latter will be more on the level of indie rock… whatever that means.. but the bottom line being we are trying to explore some new ideas, as well as embrace some old ones. In all reality none of this is truly set in stone, but stay tuned for updates in the upcoming months.
