I had a great 3 1/2 month run helping out my friend Patrice Pike while she looked for a new bass player. (congrats Glenn!) I’m really going to miss playing with her, but it’s time to move one with the rest of the year and that all about “Some Mad Hope.” It hits the stores on August 14th and will be on Vanguard Records. The Fall tour is right around the corner and most of the dates are confirmed.

Here is a clip from the Cutting Room on Jan. 27th in NY. Matt played a small sold out solo show a couple of days before the MSG show. Aaron, Lyle and myself left our killer dinner a little early to go sit in with Matt on a couple of songs since there was some backline (amps, drums) at the club. It was our first time playing out with Lyle Molzan on drums. I think he did a great job.
Ladies and Gentlemen…I present Car Crash.

I’m home for a few days with some shows with Suzanna Choffel and some recording with Tenlons Fort before I head to L.A. to finish up Matt Nathanson’s record. I’m super psyched to get started this batch of songs since Jason McGerr from Death Cab for Cutie will be the drummer on the session. His beats are always so creative and I know he will bring a lot to Matt’s songs.

Here are the dates I’m playing with Brett Dennen.
