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!

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
w/ Tyler Stenson & Band
5:30 to 7:30

NOTE: New kegs will be tapped on many of these Thursdays and everyone gets a free pint!

This residency will run every Thursday from April 19th through May (7 weeks): April 19, 26 and May 3, 10, 17, 24 and 31. Please join us for any and all of them and spread the word where you can!

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

As you already know, I had the grand opportunity to collaborate with Madgesdiq, a Portland-based hip-hop artist, on a song called World without Walls from his upcoming album Rastamerica. Well, now that the record is done, Madgesdiq has not only asked me to perform our song with him at his CD release party but he’s also asked me and my full band to open for his release show at The Secret Society on March 23rd, 2012. Please join us!!

I enlisted the help of a full band this last weekend at Someday Lounge in debuting a number of songs from the upcoming album. Above all, I’d say one of my favorite songs of the night was a brand new one called Lover Things — it just felt good.

That said, below is a video of the inaugural performance of Lover Things with lyrics added in an effort to combat the crowd noise. Enjoy the new tune and look for it to be on my new record, Some Days I’m a Lion, in June 2012.

ATTENTION: I will be coming out of the shadows to play my first show of 2012 THIS FRIDAY at the Someday Lounge in Portland, OR. To make this inaugural show extra special, I will be enlisting the help of a full band in debuting some brand new songs off of the new record and, of course, a couple oldies but goodies.

Not only is this the first show of 2012 but realistically, my first Portland show since October so I hope you’ll help me spread the word, grab some friends and come join me at this fine event!

Please join me today for the Kink.fm Noon Tunes in Pioneer Square, PDX. Noon sharp.

Yep, for one hour, Tyler Stenson and the Elegant Folk, will be filling the downtown air with roughly the same set list as Alberta Rose Theater and although this won’t be an intimately seated auditorium, it will be a sunlit outdoor amphitheater swarming with Oregonians enjoying the rare, 80-degree day.

@ Pioneer Square PDX
Tuesday August 2nd, 2011

If you work downtown or are simply passing through the city, I hope you’ll join me and the Elegant Folk for your lunch break. After all, this is a rare opportunity to soak up the sun and catch a full band performance.

See you soon.
