THANK YOU!!! THANK YOU!!! THANK YOU!!! THANK YOU!!!
CD Release Party Was A Huge Success! Standby - More Shows Coming In March!

Playing the Cards CD Release Party

Dear Nakia,
Seriously... Thank you. The CD Release Party exceeded everybody's expectations and it was just a blast to have so many of my friends there and of course, my family who drove in from Alabama. I would also like to say a very special thank you to Ben Sawyer, who spent 4 whole days doing nothing but following me around and capturing it all on film. The photos above are his. Click the collage for even more.

I can tell you with certainty that I will be going back to Lamberts to play again really soon. Keep an eye on the calendar at my site and over at MySpace for the official dates. For now, though, I have a LOT of new shows to tell you about and they start TONIGHT with a very special solo/songwriter set presented by KGSR at Mercury Hall. The show starts at 7PM sharp and The Mother Truckers follow. I hope to see you there!

If you live in Austin and you listen to any type of local radio, you have probably already heard it - and by it I mean either a song from the new CD, a live appearance, or a DJ talking about the new record.
