Today we celebrate Rachel Hall on her birthday! This past year brought more change than any before it - and it’s thanks to Rachel’s brilliance, strength, patience, and selfless love for both Harper and I that we’ve landed where we are.
Here’s a little life advice I feel confident sharing: Find someone who embodies all the traits you wish you had - and then convince them to be your partner. ❤️
One of Rachel’s best qualities is how little time she spends on social media. So if you have her number or email, send her a quick message and let her know she’s on your mind today.
Hey Joe! You coming to our shows in San Francisco?
See you at the @sfblackcat this Thursday-Sunday the 16th-19th
Featuring- @billtoddmusic@habanerojones@wayneeverest@juiceondrums
Shoutout to our brother @davetedeschi we will miss you on this trip, but I’ll hold down the snacks and breakfast vibes in your honor 🙏

Seeing you become a Dad has made me fall in love with you all over again. Though our journey to parenthood had many ups and downs, I would not want to do this with anyone else. You are an amazing father and Harper, Leo and I are so lucky to have you! Happy First Father’s Day, love! You’re a natural! 💕🌈

Leading up to Harper’s birth, friends and family shared—and sometimes warned about—their experiences of entering parenthood. They spoke of sleepless nights, the mountains of diapers we’d need to buy, and the deep, instinctual love I would feel for my daughter.
What I don’t recall hearing much about was the breathtaking experience of watching your partner become a mother.
Over the past seven weeks, Rachel’s calm and confident presence has become the foundation of our family. Her strength and selflessness are the essence of motherhood, and the love and connection she shares with Harper is unparalleled.
Happy Mother’s Day, Rachel. We love you.

Heading into my second week of “The Connector” at the @mcctheater in NYC, and I’m continually awed by the magic of this production. From the mesmerizing music and captivating voices to the stellar cast, dynamic set, and the incredible band—every element is special. Immense gratitude to the entire team for embracing me with such warmth, with a special shoutout to @jamiedonaldeblen and @masterguan for their guidance and trust. Feeling profoundly thankful and excited for what lies ahead. 🙏
Hello everyone! Recently we recorded this dark bluegrassy ballad by the great Townes Van Zandt called “Waitin’ Round to Die”.
It’s not a happy song per se lol but it’s got some powerful lyrics!
Check it out and we hope you dig it! The YouTube link is in the bio
🙏
Thanks to-

NOVEMBER: Perhaps my favorite month in the Hudson Valley. The air is crisp, the trails are (for the most part) empty and the end of the calendar year brings about feelings of gratitude for what has recently taken place (slides 1-9) and anticipation for what’s to come (slide 10).
BACK TO THE START: This week @peoplevslarsen will be recording together for the first time in over five years. Life has taken us to many places over that time, but through it all, we still find ourselves looking forward to the music we make together. The plan: three sessions in three different locations with three different configurations. We can’t wait to share what we have been working on with all of you.
A week since we played our final show in Perth and I am still riding the high.
This was my third trip to the Southern Hemisphere with @pmjofficial and although many things have changed over the years, the one thing that remains the same is the gratitude I feel while being on stage with such a phenomenal group of musicians.
Thanks to the entire PMJ team and, most importantly, thanks to all the fans who came out to the shows. Your enthusiasm and love for live music is what carried each one of us through to the end. 🙏 #pmjtour
