I was recently invited to do a quick on-screen promo for KZME Radio 107.1 fm in support of local music and local radio. While I’m not necessarily Johnny On the Spot, here is what came of it. In the end, it’s a humble promo for a great cause so I hope you’ll support local music by listening to KZME Radio, Music Where You Live.

I’m calling this the most important show of my life, to date … this is not an understatement. Please join me Friday October 19, 2012 at the Aladdin Theater as I release my 10th album into the ether. Details are still being hashed out and tickets won’t be on sale until August 1st, but mark the date in ink. See you there!

I recently purchased a new camera with the intention of making a number of music videos from the comfort of my living room and while this was technically shot in my friend’s apartment, this new video cover of Leonard Cohen’s Hallelujah is my proud first effort. Filmed and edited by yours truly, I hope you enjoy the new video!!

Beginning April 19th I will be kicking off a 7-week residency with my full band at the Rockbottom Brewery in downtown Portland. What makes this residency extra special is the fact that you don’t have to stay out all night to enjoy the live music … Yep, Five-Thirty Thursdays is a full concert experience that starts at 5:30 and will have you home by 8pm!
Even better, Rockbottom will be tapping a new beer at 5:30 on many of these upcoming dates and everyone in the room will get a free pint! That said, come hear a tune and enjoy a post-work brew with a friend or two! See ya there.
Five-Thirty Thursdays
EVERY THURSDAY @ Rockbottom Brewery

As you know, I recently experienced a very special musical event at The Alberta Rose Theatre in Portland, OR — a warm venue, brimming with a warm crowd and resulting in the warmest memories. That said, the entire evening was captured on film and I am finally getting around to editing and posting the videos.
While the clips below are my first attempt at multi-angle video editing (and will never win an award for “Best Editor”) my hope is that they offer you a peak at the very special evening that was had. Thank you to all that attended and contributed to such a special moment. Cheers!
THIS TOO SHALL PASS

With the help of my good buddy Caleb, I have created a tongue and cheek video entry for CXCW (Couch by Couchwest) — an online event/venue that aims to host all of the indie artists that didn’t get to attend this year’s SXSW festivities in Austin.
Yes, I’ll admit this video is a bit cheezy but, in the end, that was kind of the goal. Please enjoy my subtle tweak of James Taylor’s Carolina in My Mind and be sure to help the cause by following the simple 2-step directions below…
