We have two UK gigs remaining on this tour……tonight in Liverpool and tomorrow in Silsoe (nearest gig to London). This tour has been a revelation to me……….the new Endangered Livers are totally rocking. The entrance of the steel guitar/lap steel/12 string back into the mix is welcome.
Rolling into Liverpool now….looking forward to playing the Nordic Church……supposed to be a cool venue. Get your tickets!
Tomorrow, we play in Silsoe, England. If you live in London……or around the area……come join us. Great little village hall show…pub across the road…..worth the journey. Get your tickets! If you’ve been to a show on this tour……..please leave your thoughts in the comments below…….let your friends know why they should make the effort to get out to one of the remaining shows!
Just made King Tut’s for load in for our show here in Glasgow tonight. Tomorrow we roll into Liverpool for the hometown gig for Etienne, Scott, and Jonathan. We are playing a place called the Scandanavian Church……or Nordic Church, or Swedish Seaman’s Church….depending on who you talk to! I would suggest a daytrip to do [...]
We will be broadcasting from a farm in the wilds of the Scottish Borders at 9:15pm London time tonight. We had a night off before our show at King Tuts in Glasgow tomorrow night, and figured we would have some haggis, some local whiskey, and play some music for ya’ll. Last night we played an [...]
We play King Tut’s in Glasgow tomorrow night (Thursday, May 16th)……..can’t wait. It is one of the best gigs in the UK. The new Endangered Livers are absolutely inspiring me.

Yesterday was hectic…..started at 7:30am in Bristol, England….culminated with a live on-air with Billy Butler on BBC Merseyside and a live webstream from Scott’s house. Thank you to everyone for tuning into the webstream.….and especially for those that tipped the band…..it really helps. I’ll leave it up in archive for a few days in case [...]
The UK/Netherlands tour rolls on. I haven’t done a live webcast in awhile and thought that tomorrow night (Thursday, May 9th) in Liverpool would be a perfect opportunity to introduce you guys to the Endangered Livers. So, we’ll live webcast from Scott’s living room in Liverpool tomorrow night at 8pm London time. We’ll play a [...]
I’m two shows into the UK tour with the new band. I have to say that I haven’t been this excited about making music in a long time. I think every artist goes through periods where they are going through the motions……surviving. After the experience in Bristol and Weedon Lois……I believe this is going to [...]
This is a very short post……just got home from rehearsing with the band….it’s 3:34am. This band is special. They know the stuff like the records……and they groove.

Bristol is a fantastic city, and the area around the Polish Club is known for great restaurants and convenient hotels. Come join us [...]
I got a little nostalgic today. I was at a coffee shop trying to figure out what I could give you guys as a thank you for supporting my endeavors…..be it the 50 States in 50 Days tours, the UK/Europe tours, or funding the last cd……….and I came across a recording we did live at [...]
Today, I had a rambling conversation with my friends on Facebook about Jackson Browne’s “Late for the Sky”………about 80 comments flew back and forth. I’m a huge JB fan, and I share that love with many of my friends. My old pal Scott Saunders mentioned “She Don’t Wake Me Up” during those interchanges, and I [...]

Ok, I’ve confirmed Weedon Lois and Silsoe for the UK tour. Both are Saturday night village hall shows-pretty much my favorite kind of show.

Happy New Year folks! I’m determined to make this one a good one. I’m starting to announce the dates for the May UK/European tour. Bristol, England on May 3rd is the first date on the books. The economy sucks, and there is a general fear out there, but I can either do two things……sit home [...]
In 1991, when I was 22, I put everything I owned into the back of my pickup truck and moved to Hollywood. My one goal was to get a record deal. For a year I did every open mic until i’d built up a phone list of folks who had made the effort to say [...]
