I love playing in the Bill Edwards Band! We'll be upstairs at Crazy Wisdom---Bill and I, and John Holkeboer and Stuart Tucker. New old school country originals. The best!

I'll be playing a set with Tony Pace and Brian Williams for this annual camping, music and potluck extravaganza at Johnny Williams Green River Schoolhouse annual Hootenanny.

The whole band will be performing at this wonderful summer outdoor concert series in beautiful McHattie Park, South Lyon, MI. I'll be joined by David Roof (bass), Tony Pace (electric guitar/dobro), Brian Williams (drums) and Katie Van Dusen (fiddle). Looking forward to this one!

Very excited to be playing The Session Room, one of the coolest new restaurant/bar/music venues in Ann Arbor! I eat at The Session Room all the time, so playing music there is a real bonus! Especially getting to play with my friends, Ed Dupas and Tony Pace. We'll be doing lots of our original tunes and our favorite country covers. Stop by for some delicious Session Room fare and catch our music too!

So thrilled to be included in Ann Arbor's Top of the Park musical lineup this year! I'll be joined by my good friend and bandmate, Dave Roof, on the beautiful, shady acoustic Grove Stage at 5 p.m. Dave usually plays upright bass with me, but tonight he'll be wielding his "Nashville ax" and singing harmonies on my originals from previous recordings but also a few new songs fresh off the presses. Please stop by and join us!

My good friend, Bill Edwards, and I will be playing our original songs at this picnic benefit launching Washtenaw Congregational Sanctuary, a project created and sponsored by the Interfaith Council for Peace to raise funds to alleviate hardships affecting individual immigrants and mixed-status families in Washtenaw County facing the increase in deportations that are tragically separating and destroying families. Please help support this important cause!
