Clip from a song we’ve been working on called On The Heel about running from and returning to the darkest and brightest parts of ourselves in an endless rushing cycle.

We are soon recording this song in our first ever reel to reel experience with the dear one @ericvannielsen for a little doubleshot coming in the next few months!!

Clip from a song we’ve been working on called Car Chase about touring, chasing clarity, and how the wheel of life goes round and round like the ever-breaking dawn and the ever-dawning dusk.

We are soonly recording this song in our first ever reel to reel experience with the dear one @ericvannielsen for a little doubleshot coming in the next few months!!

See you then 👋!

#phillylivemusic

TOMORROW we're throwin' down at @doitnowtshirts for our good friend @ericvannielsen's 1/2 Birthday Show!

This lineup is absolutely stacked with @swampratsmusic, @huston_west_banjo, and @racoon_tyrant!

This is our last local show before we hit the road! We hope to see you there. 🧡

$10 suggested donation; doors at 5:30!

Yes you're coming to a party, party!! It's only once in a lifetime you turn 40, but even MORE just once that you turn 40 & 1/2!! With that fact of life stated, I am throwing myself the best half-Birthday Party a guy could ask for by having some of my favorite bands play the stage @doitnowtshirts !!! On July 19th starting at 6pm, you can catch @huston_west_banjo , @swampratsmusic , @racoon_tyrant and @theloomsband all sharing the stage in a music extravaganza you don't wanna miss - I'll be playing, too (of course) and debuting some new music ;-). There might even be a couple of special guests. So please join us on Saturday, July 19th to celebrate this very happiest of half-Birthdays! I hope to see you there.

Since growing up in Texas, I've enjoyed the challenge of debating politics with friends whose views differ from mine. It's something that is sorely lacking from today's discourse, but there are still some things we can come together on. Another war in the middle-east will be devastating for people both here in this country as well as for those who will likely see bombs dropping on their homelands, and even people all across the world. I came of age during the build-up to the disastrous war with Iraq and the horrific consequences its people and the world paid as a result. This impending war with Iran will be far, far worse. It may even risk our very survival on this planet. The US Congress MUST give authorization before the US can go to war with another nation. This has not taken place, nor will it. This is not acceptable.
Congressman Thomas Massie @repthomasmassie of Kentucky has introduced the Iran War Powers Resolution, cosponsored by @reprokhanna , legislation that would require congressional approval before any involvement in the middle east could take place.Please consider calling your Senator today. Our world and lives may depend on it:

No More War
CALL YOUR SENATORS

#nowarwithiran

UPDATE: We're SUPER-psyched to announce the fantabulous @tubeyfrank will be rounding out our lineup on FRIDAY. Amazing. That's THIS FRIDAY in case you weren't sure 😉Not to be missed, for sure.
.......

Well folks, we continue our hot streak of amaaazzing shows here with none other than @rockbottomstringband bringing down the house here on Friday, June 20th. If that wasn't musical awesomesauce 🥫 enough for you, Mr. @huston_west_banjo will return to the shop by popular demand (ours & others) alongside the fingerpickin' goodness of our own @ericvannielsen . And stay tuned - one more phenomenal name may just grace this bill 👀! But since it's already 🔥, we KNOW you'll be here 😎 - 6/20/25 doors 6 and music from 7-10, $10 suggested donation. So 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💯💯🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 c u then 🤠😁
