Alos, Kevin Toll just agreed to help us in recording the track, “Easy”! Wait ’til you hear what he does on this. I remember the first time he played that song with me I about got whiplash on stage…He just nails it – finds the thing you didn’t know you yearned for in a song and plays it….

Thanks to all the supporters so far – thru the site and independently

Thanks to all who came to Stacey’s this weekend! It had been a long time! And thanks to all the supporters to the Kickstarter campaign, those who have pledged through the site and those who have just gifted me for the project outside – it is humbly appreciated. What a crazy process this is…for those who haven’t heard yet, check out the plan for our new album at

Heidi and Nai’a’s video ROCKS!

Heidi came by Katabatic last night to show me what she’d done on the introductory video…WOW. She’s so good! You know how they say, when the student is ready, the teacher appears? Well, I am experiencing my own version of that. All these years that I wasn’t making my second album it was because I couldn’t figure out how to do all of it alone, and at that time, all the elements just weren’t showing up and falling into place.

Now, suddenly, for no apparent reason, I am trying again to make it – and everything is FLOWING. Truly first and foremost, I have to credit witnessing Sean Devine take his most recent album on. If I hadn’t gotten to be so close to that process, I think I still would have been wondering how the hell I was ever going to make another record.

But ever since I first started to get after this time, things have ben rolling out for me – and one of those things, in a big way, is Heidi! Roadtripper, sounding board, cheerleader, believer, videographer and editor….I mean…this is so cool! I’ve never enjoyed this much support in exactly all the areas that I’m the weakest! What fun!

And wait ’til you see the photos that Taylor Kent took – who even am I?!?! Who is that woman in the pictures – I’ve NEVER had pictures taken of me like that.

Who knew I’d have to leave California to get the best pictures and video made of me and that I’d have to leave Austin to have the musical life that I dreamed of – in Montana!?!? I am loving life right now. There’s just no tellin’. You have to get out and step in the current if you want things to happen.

Crowd-funding proposal in its final stages

Heidi came over to look over my proposal and will be submitting some feedback today on it. So the text of this proposal will soon be done, then I’ll only have to submit it and wait for approval before I launch it sometime next week. Monday?

In related news, we’ll be taking pictures for it and the new album art on Friday with Taylor Kent and Rob Story plus hopefully getting some kind of a welcome video up. Photo shoots. Awesome.

Second Album Coming!

October 5th looks like the tentative kickoff of the fundraising campaign for our second album! This will be a full studio recording with some really fun and talented musicians: Mike Bernal on drums and Chris Crepps on upright bass (Dale Watson) are going to lay down the backbone for me. Doug Strahan (Doug Strahan and the Good Neighbors) and Phil Hurley (South Austin Moonlighters, Tracy Bonham, Gigolo Ants, Stonehoney) are laying down lead guitar, Earl Poole Ball (Gram Parsons, Johnny Cash) will be tickling my ivories, Bryan Paugh (Tessy Lou and the Shotgun Stars) will be sawing on the fiddle and still TBD on pedal, lap and accordion….Don’t miss being a part of this. WE COULD NAME THIS RECORD AFTER YOU!!!
