Small Stars Still Need To Shine

I have a book called, “14,000 Things To Be Happy About” and for some reason I was thinking about that book recently and when I was driving home yesterday I thought to myself, “gosh it’s been so long since I updated the blog that I will have a horrible time playing catch up…maybe I could [...]

Excited

I’ve got my headphones on again. Something I haven’t heard in ages. Something I was a participant to years ago now. A recording. A band. Young and on the right track of something, just not the music business. It’s amazing to look back now and see where I was at that point in my life. [...]

Oh Atlanta!

It never ceases to amaze me. Coming to Atlanta always brings back such vivid memories of my time here in 1995 and 1996. Working with Brenden O’Brien, out every night with the BMG, Sony, or UNI gangs, becoming who I would later be today and forever. I arrived in Atlanta Sunday morning around 9AM. It [...]

I Heard You Say

I guess I have had a real serious case of writers block kicking now for WAY too long, huh? I have to admit though. Now that it’s over, I feel freaking GREAT! Let me be the first to tell you all that I just finished a new song. Finished as in finished writing it, and [...]

Lights! Camera!! Action!!! DOH!!!!!

OK – once again I have totally screwed up by closing a freaking window and losing a blog entry. WHAT WILL I DO?? I was just about done too! OK – here’s the skinny about the lost post – Training started today at Apple for the Ridgepoint campus. It rocked. My team is going to [...]

Where’s Summer?

Graffiti’s in North Austin has truly become my home bar. Joe and Debby are just the best! Last night’s show was great and I had such a good time with the songs and the crowd. Thank you to all the really cool folks who came out last night. Hmmmm…Where’s Summer? Kris? Yep… LAME!! I missed [...]

I Want It Back!

A very exceptional night took place at St. David’s sanctuary tonight. Shawn Colvin performing with Will Taylor & Strings Attached. Having joined Will’s street team earlier in the month, I was on the list to attend in exchange for folding, labeling, stamping and dotting newsletters. I also listed Roberto The Concert Attendee and he helped [...]

Agence Green

1. Christened Heart 2. Weather Man 3. One More Try That was the short, but sweet set list from tonight’s party for Agence Talent’s official launch! Go ERIN!! She rocks! She introduced me to some great folks and let me play some songs for a room filled with beautiful and talented people. It was just [...]

Mr. Jones & Me…

Tonight was the monthly Texas Songwriters Night at Casbeers in San Antonio. Tonight marked my fifth appearance at said gathering of songwriters and it was a very special one for several reasons. Let’s review, shall we? 1. Tonight was the first time I actually didn’t have to wait for someone to get off work to [...]

LAME

OK – So I had a whole post typed up and accidentally used the Google bar and lost it. Here’s what you missed in a nutshell. I am trying to book gigs back toward home to give me incentive to go home and visit, despite typical family drama. I am getting attention via Sonicbids. Which [...]

Raised On Radio

OK – Today held exactly what my fortune said it was going to…A pleasant surprise. At approximatley 3:45PM Central Standard time, my song, “Broken Spoke” was played by Jody Denburg, the Program Director of KGSR, on his daily segment – The Daily Demo. I got a call (OK – SEVERAL CALLS) from Marney around 3:40ish [...]

Such A Small Stage For Such A Large History

Well, tonight, I was privileged to perform at the Cactus Cafe here in Austin. If you’re not in the loop, that means I got to perform on a seriously major stage. One that everyone from Robert Earl and Lyle to Shawn Colvin and Ani have graced at one point or another. Oh…Did I mention, Nanci [...]

It’s Not A Sound Auction…It’s A Sonicbid!

Well – It’s official. I am now a member of the Sonicbids family. I stayed up late last night working my ass off on the new bio, compiling press, resizing photos, creating new sound samples, and adding show dates, but the work paid off! I love my EPK! I think it looks way cool and [...]

Corpus Christi – Hot, Humid…SWELL!

So, with a twist of a key, a shift of a gear, and an iPod full of songs, I headed to Corpus Christi on Friday to perform at the grand opening of the new art gallery in town, John Medina’s, SWELL. The show, appropriately named, “Fresh,” was a real blast! John really went all out [...]
