Ashland Walk
A beautiful day in Ashland, Ohio.
As I build toward recording Broom of Fire in Los Angeles (New target date: 2nd week of November), I am recording acoustic video/audio to share with the production team out there, and give them a chance to become familiar with each song. So here’s another one. Best sound with headphones on.

2018 Oakhurst Porchfest
Hello – I’m happy to be playing my 3rd Porchfest in a row this coming Saturday, October 13th. It’s always interesting to play my original songs to an array of strolling families with their carousing children running through the yards. Naturally I feel compelled to play more uplifting material in such an environment. Each year there is a call for performers and we are (usually) given a different host porch to play from, with a one-hour slot, while hundreds of people walk around and enjoy a huge cornucopia of music styles.
If “Hurricane Michael” (first time in my life) doesn’t disrupt things, it seems we will have our first taste of lovely Autumn weather this weekend. I look forward to that almost as much as playing.
If you live in town, come see me from 4 – 5 p.m. at 816 3rd Avenue.

Merry Goats in Prague
Thank you for a very nice set at a very local bistro in Prague – everyone was so gracious and appreciative. Only a few spoke English – and so once again music is the universal means of communication. I will return!

Antic Clay in Prague
17 August 2018
I’m very excited to play my second solo show in Europe – tonight at Bistro U Veselé Kozy. This, like last December in Budapest, will be a humble acoustic show, as it’s really just coordinated by European friends on my way to a business trip in Denmark. Once the next album is released however, I have absolute ambitions to do a proper tour, with other players, promotion and multiple cities. Meanwhile, if you happen to read this and can come out, or recommend to a Czech friend that they attend, that would be swell.
Set list tonight will likely include many covers, as this looks to be a patio-style gig (rather than a dedicated Antic Clay show). I always hope to please a crowd in that atmosphere, and that typically involves playing some songs they’ll recognize. So I’ll probably include some Johnny Cash, Leonard Cohen and such. Once I return from Europe, my next focus is on the actual recording of Broom of Fire, for which I plan to raise funds and lay down tracks in Los Angeles. Best to all, and keep in touch!

Antic Clay in Prague 17 August 2018
“The latest publication of Black Needle Noise is the video clip of ‘Who Which Watches’. Employing noir aesthetics and combining dark and country sounds, the song is particularly interesting.”
