I’m back from some dates on the road with The Seedy Seeds! Some of the cool stuff we did this time around besides playing our songs in music clubs included performing on the first ever episode of UC’s Queen City Sessions (Bearcast’s new video and music enterprise), doing an on-air with Fearless Kris on Fearless Radio, recording a “Let’s Get Serious” podcast with Kendall Bruns, and catching a little bit of Kool Keith’s set at Reggies Rock Club.

Next on the agenda is preparing for a couple of local shows: 1/31 at Sitwell’s and 2/8 at MOTR Pub, and working on some film scoring.

My good friend and collaborator Jason Wells of for algernon will be joining me Tuesday, 31 January at Sitwell’s Coffee House as we perform in support of Ohio House of Representatives candidate Luke Brockmeier.

And if you can’t make the political rally, I hope you’ll join me at MOTR Pub on Wednesday, 8 February. The band and I open for my very, very talented friend Cheyenne Marie Mize. And when I say band, what I mean to say is I am more excited than excited to announce I’ll be flanked by Billy Wallace on ukelele, mandolin, guitar and more, fellow Seed Mike Ingram on percussion, and Pop Empire’s Cameron Cochran on pedal steel!

And lastly: I’m composing music for a film. The material I’m writing is instrumental, and very different from anything I do with The Seedy Seeds and from my solo stuff. It’s a very rewarding exercise; I will definitely write more updates as I get further along in the process.
