Have you seen the video for “Gold?”
It’s our cover of the John Stewart chestnut from 1979. Shot on a hot day at iconic Hollywood music spots and in the hills of Malibu at a hidden speakeasy. Would love for you to have a look and listen.
See the full video at link in the bio.

It’s a photo drop from Nashville! First time playing Music City not during AmericanaFest and reconnected with @davidnewbould and his great band who backed me up. And some friends made the trip out for Spring Break. Three great shows and good times.
1.) Opening up @honkytonktuesday with a nice group of dance class folks. A great night that ended with the fantastic @thecowpokes playing to 400+ peeps on a Tuesday night
2.) Sitting in for a few with @booray ‘s fantastic band for their residency @chiefsbroadway
3.) Did some tourist stuff
4.) @booray absolutely killed it @deeslounge615 - he’s got a killer new single called “Broken Hearts Are Paint” written with David Newbould. Must listen.
5.) Good pal Eric Reynolds made the trip out and came to the shows
6.) Twang City!
7.) We came on right after the Puppet Show
8.) Kimbro’s is a special spot in the swanky area of Franklin. Really fun night and spirited crowd.
9.) A little bit of “You Don’t Know Me” from the rafters at @eastsidebowl

Y’all come check out this great triple bill tomorrow/Wednesday at @deeslounge615 up in Madison. The band and I kick off at 8:30. Then we’ll become Haymakers backing up @john_surge . Following that is my good buddy @booray , riding high like Jerry Jeff on his new single that we wrote together, “Broken Hearts Are Paint”. See ya there!
Just one thing! Heading to Nashville in two weeks to play three shows on the Eastside with my gang of “Nashville Haymakers.” Playing @deeslounge615 for the first time on April 1 and can’t wait for this one. I’m a big fan of @booray and @davidnewbould whose band will be backing me. An absolutely killer Wednesday night bill. Tell your friends!
