I’m playing some shows on the west coast in November and early December! I want to see you at one of them. So, I’m going to tell you when/where they are. Here’s the short version, and you can go to my shows page for all the details.

11/14 Los Angeles, CA
11/15 San Diego, CA
11/17 San Francisco, CA
11/29 Seattle, WA
11/30 Bellingham, WA
12/1 Vancouver, BC
12/2 Portland, OR

I’ll be playing at some great venues at these shows, and sharing the stage with some fantastic artists along the way. I’ve also never been to most of these cities before, so that’s exciting. Needless to say, I think this will be awesome.

NOTE: Unfortunately, most of these are not all ages shows. If you’re under 21, please check before making any plans. If you can’t because of age restrictions, or if you’re too far away to come to any of these, despair not. I’ll be playing a lot more shows next year. Hope to see you soon.

I made a playlist of a bunch of songs I’ve been listening to lately. If you have Spotify, you can listen to it here. Here’s a list of what’s on there for those of you who don’t have Spotify but still want to check it out.

Hey! I cleaned my house recently and found a whole lot of stuff that I want you to have. You, personally. If you buy it, that is. There are a bunch of one-off t-shirt designs that I will never actually print that are now in my merch store. Also! I have signed “Quitters” posters available. Here’s a video of me talking about it. There are very few of each design, so act quickly if you want one. I’ll sign it if you want me to.

I’m playing another web concert on StageIt! This time it’s with Nataly Dawn, my friend, fellow singer/songwriter, and occasional bandmate under the name My Terrible Friend. Tickets are limited, so go get some!

TICKETS!!

It’s on April 4th at 6pm PST. Go to StageIt’s website and they’ll tell you what time that is in your part of the world.

Hey! I’m opening for Blame Sally on April 13th at the Napa Valley Opera House in Napa, CA, and on April 14th at the Great American Music Hall in San Francisco. I’ll be playing with a full band and playing songs off of my new record, Quitters. For details and tickets, check out my “SHOWS” tab right here on the world’s greatest website, or look at the Facebook events.

Napa, CA 4/13

San Francisco, CA 4/14

It’s out!! As of March 2nd, my new album “Quitters” is available in many places. Go to my music page to download it, stream it, or get it on CD.

I am stoked and a half. I hope you are too.

Since the first one was so awesome, I decided to use StageIt again to hold a live online CD release show. I’ll be playing new songs from the record, as well as older ones by requests posted on my Facebook page.

This time, I’m actually having TWO shows so that I can accommodate more time zones without any of you having to change whatever plans you’d made for 4am on a Tuesday morning. I know that’s a very busy time for all of us.

Check them out on StageIt.com. The website will automatically convert the time for you, so whatever time it says should be accurate to your time zone (this may technically be March 6th for some of you). It’s on a pay what you want basis and it will be a life-changing* event. You really should attend.

*fun!

Hey! I’ll be playing a live web show on StageIt on February 7th! It’s going to be super interactive, so I’ll be answering questions and taking requests and all that good stuff.

You should attend, if only because it’s IN YOUR HOUSE. No shirt, no shoes, no problem. Unless you’re being weird about it in the chat section.

It’s “pay what you want,” which is also neat, but you must have a ticket. Get tickets or read more about it at StageIt.com.

Long time no post! I guess I can only be talkative on so many websites.

Anyhow, I have a new song up on YouTube! You should check it out. If you already saw, you can go download it here unless you hated it in which case you should not download it.

Also! You may have noticed all of my everything is now littered with visuals about my new album “Quitters.” That’s because I have a new album! It’s now available for presale here, where you can also hear one of the songs from it. It’ll be out March 2nd. The Ides of March.

No it’s not. It’s just some day in March.

It’s true! There’s now a page where you can download mp3s, a link to my store, and a “tour” page that currently exists only to tell you that I’m not on tour, but will eventually have actual, real life events!

It may not be much, but at least the header image is no longer a pinecone.

More soon.

You found my website that doesn’t exist right now.  You’ve disrupted the balance of the universe and the sun shall burn out and swallow the earth momentarily. Please stand by.
