Hello everyone!  Summer is in full gear now, with plenty of heat and humidity coming down, along with a bunch of rain up here in Sullivan County, NY where we relocate for a good part of the summer.  While we are still die-hard Brooklynites, Jen and I love to spend our summer's up here in the country near the Delaware River (maybe even some of the fall as we go forth, now that we are both officially retired from the NYC Department of Education).

Music-wise, I spend my time playing up in this neck of the woods during as well.  Here are a list of my goings on for the next couple months if you happen to be around:

Sat. 7/15 6-9pm Bridge and Tunnel Brewery (50 Lake Street, Liberty, NY)

Friday 7/28 8-9pm Rafter's Tavern-Friday Singer-Songwriter Series   (28 Upper Main Street, Callicoon, NY)

Sunday 7/29 10-1PM Barryville Farmer's Market (Barryville United Methodist Church, 3405 NY-97 Barryville, NY)

Wednesday 8/16 7-9pm Dogwood (47 E Main St., Beacon, NY) co-billing with Mark Weston

Friday 8/18 6-9 PM Bridge and Tunnel Brewery (50 Lake Street, Liberty, NY) with Poison Love

Friday 8/25 8-9pm Rafter's Tavern-Friday Singer-Songwriter Series   (28 Upper Main Street, Callicoon, NY)

Carpal tunnel in my wrist has been taking a toll on my music, as I have not been actively writing, recording, gigging as much as I would like to be, but the issue needs to be tended to in order for things to heal.  While I spend my time trying to figure out how to play chords on a keyboard and working on getting better at bending notes on the harmonica.

Looking forward to my first single release, "Flamin' Midnight Crowne" from my upcoming Album, "Lost and Found" in mid September!  Would love to get your help for getting ready to promote it this summer as I get ready for putting it out into the world!  For now, I would love it if folks gave the video of me, Jason Sasai and Doug Pierson playing it over at Rockwood Music Hall back in May a little love.  Please like it (click the thumbs up symbol) and sign up for my YouTube Channel!

Thanks everyone!
