Telluride!

Wednesday, May 9th, 2012

I’m happy to announce that I’ve been accepted into the Telluride Bluegrass Festival’s prestigious Troubadour Competition! It’s a wonderful event that pits some of the best songwriters in the world against one another in a six-round, steel-cage submission match. Wait, what? Oh, check that. Turns out it’s a songwriting competition. I guess I can pull [...]

Music as a Family

Tuesday, February 7th, 2012

When I first moved to Texas in 2004, I arrived with the hope that I would be welcomed into a tightly knitted community of like-minded artists, the idea of which I had admired for quite some time from afar. It was the inspiration for, and the premise behind, my self-imposed uprooting. Mutual support would abound, [...]

Mid-November Update

Tuesday, November 15th, 2011

Well, so far the response to Fresh Water In The Salton Sea has been overwhelming. Thanks to you, it’s already been the biggest album of my career… and it’s only a few weeks old. Music has been the way in which I have made my living for the better part of a decade, so believe me [...]

The Fresh Water Play-by-Play

Tuesday, November 1st, 2011

It’s release day! There is a lot going on around this project, so I wanted to take a few minutes to explain everything to you piece by piece, just incase I’ve failed to already do so (which is highly likely, I might add). The Album: It’s my fifth, and I think it’s my best so [...]

“OK, I still don’t get this….”

Monday, October 17th, 2011

“You’re just a musician. What is all of this extra stuff?” That’s a good question– it really is. I could write for hours explaining what I’m going for with all of this, but who has hours (especially hours to let me expound on egocentric reasoning and justification– blarg!), right? Here’s your explanation in video form. [...]

It’s A Celebration!

Friday, September 30th, 2011

On Sunday, October 23rd we’re going to throw a little shindig. I’ve teamed up with my friends at Dry Comal Creek Vineyards and Winery in New Braunfels to put together an afternoon of music, wine, and good times to celebrate the release of my fifth album and my first novel, Fresh Water In The Salton [...]

what all of this stuff… is.

Thursday, September 29th, 2011

A short word about this whole album/novel project: I was driving to a New Years Eve show in Alpine, Texas, thinking about what I wanted to do with the record that I was about to record two weeks into 2011 (the album that is hopefully now bouncing off of your eardrums). As the last sun [...]
