Hi all,

I'm happy to pass along that guitarist Bert Lams and myself will be quite busy over the next few months, criss crossing around the west coast and the east coast. Some dates are still settling in, but I thought I'd pass along what I know so far. As is the norm for us, many of the shows are house concerts. These are open to the public (unless otherwise noted) and attending usually just means making a reservation in advance with the host. There are still a few open dates as well, so if we're not quite making it to your area and you'd like to see that change, please e-mail me privately.

Here's what's happening currently:

From roughly May 15 or 20 through June 6, we'll be traveling around the east coast. There are a few confirmed shows so far in Leesburg, New Paltz, Frankfurt and Charleston with many more on the way. We'll also likely be headed to the areas of Cleveland, Pittsburgh, Ann Arbor, Harrisburg and Elmira and are considering extending things through Atlanta, Charlotte and more. I'll post more on these dates as they solidify a bit and again, if you'd like to see us come to your "neighborhood" please let me know and we can try to make it happen!
