May Residency / East Coast Tour
Look out, kids, things are about to get real busy!
First thing is that I’ve been asked to play a three-week happy hour residency at Biddy McGraw’s during the month of May, starting tonight. I’ll be playing there for the next three Thursdays from 6 to 8 pm, and I’ll have a few special guests with me. Kicking it off tonight will be Katie Sawicki, and we’ll be previewing material from our upcoming East Coast tour. Come on out for a drink!
And that’s the second bit of news–I’m finally coming back east! For the first week of June I’ll be touring as a side-man for Katie Sawicki, playing banjo, accordion, and electric guitar. Then I’ll spend another week playing a few dates of my own, and three of those will be full band shows with Dave Chalfant (from the Neilds) on bass, Jim Henry on electric guitar and dobro, and Ben Laine (from Fancy Trash) on drums. Should be good times!
