Great memories playing with @fleetfoxes this June at Bonaroo and Agora Ballroom in Cleveland <3 We’re at it again tonight and tomorrow at @greek_theatre in Berkeley CA!
Again many thanks to this amazing band and to the @westerliesmusic for looping Tree and I into the fold for these shows. This music is so special and it’s been a gift to be a part of its performance from the inside out!

John Cushing Big Band at @brotherswashanddry was truly a treat to delight and a feat of fight against all things nefarious — here’s some evidence that we made it out alive. If you missed it come check us out at our monthly residency, every last Wednesday at @fictionbar.cafe - next one is May 27
It is with grief I must announce that some infamous familiar faces will be returning under a new alias. Due to their current affiliations with a BIG FOLK mogul we will refer to as “Steel and Beer,” they must remain under cover while they pillage and peruse New York. Join us on Tuesday to defend the laundromat and ensure the “Nefarious Network” never plays in this town again….at least not by that name. A meddling aviary (@its.falcon.bitch ) will be flapping alongside so remember to wear your gauntlets. Our only hope, if any, on this doomed evening will be the effervescent arrangements of @johncushingofficial and his very good big giant huge band. Pray for John as he attempts to vanquish the “Network” and its fowl friend. God help us.
If you missed last week you can see it tonight, 8pm at @petescandystore ⭐️ this bill is lit up with friendship fun and a lot of great songs for you to check out. John then Tom then Jackson, don’t be late- doors at 8 and music 8:30-11
