Music Cafe Night Update

I’m really excited to be performing at Venice Santa Monica Free Methodist Church’s Music Café Night this Saturday, May 18th. It’s going to be a great night of music, coffee, food, desserts, worship and praise. Also appearing will be David Gaulton and Seven Years.

I’ll be joined by Gina Fletcher (drums) and EJ Wells (bass) for a full 45 minute set.  And we are debuting a batch of new songs! Don’t miss it – we go on at 7:15pm…

Hope to see you there!

OLG appearance cancelled

FYI, there was a scheduling mixup and Jackknifed Big Rig will not be appearing at the Our Lady of Guadalupe festival on 4/28. But if you are in the neighborhood, show up anyway!

The 5/18 Cafe Music Night solo appearance is still happening…hope to see you there!

Spring shows

2 new RTK dates on the horizon!
On Sunday, April 28, 2013, Jackknifed Big Rig will be playing at the Our Lady of Guadalupe Music Festival in Hermosa Beach, CA.

Then I’ll be performing a short acoustic set at 7pm to open Venice Santa Monica Free Methodist Church’s Music Café Night on Saturday, May 18, 2013.

Plus, we will start working on the new recording project in early May!

 

Springing Forward!

I have finally determined to spring into action and move forward with my next recording project. It’s not the one I was planning, either. Guess we lost an hour of sleep and somehow I end up being inspired!

In the next few months, we’ll be recording at least 3 new songs and releasing them individually through iTunes.  Once again, we’ll be recording with my friend Chris Hastings and NoVanGogh’s Doug Sparks will probably get his ears dirty in the process as well. Stay tuned!

Oh, and look out for the limited edition release of a 6-track Dear John CD.

 

Pssst…hey – wanna buy some music?

I really appreciate everyone’s support of my music career over the years – and as you can imagine, for an independent artist every dollar counts.  So I wanted to let you know that when you purchase any of my MP3s directly from CDBaby.com between July 30^th (today!) and August 3^rd  (this Friday), I will get to keep 100% of the sales! (Typically, they take a percentage, but are waiving it this week!)

That’s 100% profit.

If you’ve never purchased any of my music, or have been thinking about it for a while, now is the best time to do it because your money will literally go further and will go towards funding my next album which we plan to start recording later this year.

I’d appreciate it if you would click on the links below and purchase a song or two, or a full album or two!

Feel free to tell your friends, too!

Gratefully!

Jackknifed Big Rig on Sunset!

I’ve been wanting to do this for a while, and now it’s time – let’s start a new band!

Introducing Jackknifed Big Rig.

We will debut this new original ensemble Saturday, August 11th with a mini-set at the Foundation Room at the House of Blues on Sunset.

Joining me on this new adventure will be long-time musical compadre Pete Sheppard on guitar, EJ Wells on bass, and Gina Fletcher on drums.  EJ and Gina have been the rhythm section with the Matsuri Praise Team the last few years. Pete and I have worked together off and on since the Orchids and have been threatening to put a rock n roll band together for the last few years.

So, the time is now! Don’t know what’s next, but hey, that’s why it’s an adventure!

Hopefully it won’t create a Sig alert.  If you’re a member, hope to see you there!
