Yigity Yo!

So yeah.  That thing called winter?  It got caught up hanging out somewhere else this year, and has decided to arrive just a tad late to Georgia.  The weather channel is saying it is to ice over tonight…..I hope they’re wrong.  Ice is no bueno! :(

‘KAY SO ANYWAYZ.  Music! Music! Music!  It is going well.  Getting pumped for some fun gigs coming up soon. This Saturday, FEB 18th, I’m playing at Firefly Restaurant in Alpharetta, GA with BJ Wilbanks for a Tree Leaf Artist Showcase with India Hopkins,  Julia Latimer, and Josh Lucci opening.  Ms. Donna Hopkins put it together. We’re stoked! It’s from 8pm- 11pm.  Make it out if you can!  It’s gonna be a cool show.

BY THE WAY, please check out and share this video of BJ Wilbanks and me performing our song “Walk Softly On These Blues”  (filmed at Tree Sound, Studio A)  several weeks back.  Big thanks to those wonderful people!  The website, www.overdubdub.com,  is a neat brand new site that Paul Diaz put together to promote up and coming artists at Tree Sound.  We are honored to be a part of it!

Other shows comin’ up…..

For more show dates through April and May, click HERE!   Hope to see you at some of them! :)

May you all have a HAPPY VALENTINE’S DAY!  Embrace the glorious sweet cheese of this Hallmark holiday.  It’s kind of fun…..candy hearts are the bomb, I must admit.  That all said, I do believe we shouldn’t have to have just one day out of the year to remind the people we love how much we love them….but I suppose it is the one day out of the year when you can be overly corny and have it be okay. ;)

When it comes down to it, love is what everything is about. If I would have to identify my spiritual beliefs, I would have to say LOVE is my religion…..it is why we are here.  Without it, what is the point to all of this mess?

Much love and gratitude,
