So much….

So much has been happening lately. I’ve been recording the new Tenlons Fort record with Jack Gibson. I’ve also been busy playing local shows with Suzanna Choffel, Erin Condo, Sarah Glynn, Craig Marshall, Jade Day and Dave Madden but I’m about to hit the road again. January 12th through the 23rd I’ll be playing bass with a fantastic singer/songwriter named Brett Dennen. He is a mix of Dylan, Paul Simon and Jack Johnson. He opened for the last leg of Matt Nathanson’s tour last year. I finish out this month in NY with Matt and we are playing a show at the world famous Madison Square Garden opening up for O.A.R. and Gomez.

We finish Matt’s record in L.A. in February and then I jump back on Brett’s tour in Lexington, KY on the 19th and I’m with him until March 18th in Dallas. We’ll be playing some shows during SXSW and I’ll get to be on tour and sleep in my own bed at the same time. That’s the way it should always be.

Go listen to Brett (iTunes) and check out his MySpace.
