Come see me play BSP Kingston this Sunday! I’m opening for Beach Slang and American Film History. Upstate New York folks, now is your chance to see my band… : )
Playing three shows at SXSW this week:
-Thurs, March 16, 7 p.m.: Don Giovanni Records Showcase at Valhalla
-Fri, March 17, 12 p.m.: Jumpstart Party at Sidebar
-Fri, March 17, 4 p.m.: Girls Rock Austin Party at Cherrywood Coffeehouse
I have a new video out! It takes place in a Parallel world–i.e. where I spend most of my free time. The filmmaker, Gabriela Ilijeska, took raw footage of me and my band performing and transported us into an abstract space filled with shimmering shapes and shifting borders. This is by far the coolest music video I’ve ever been in. I’m looking forward to collaborating with Gabby again in the future!
Next show: Sunday, Feb 12th at Alphaville in Brooklyn. Playing as a Power Trio. Let’s see how this goes. Hopefully like Nirvana.
Ocean Grove - with an extended guitar solo – 3 minutes long!

Was on a podcast! Nice live renditions of “Valerie” and “Fire” in this one.
Christian, Colin, Dave, and I stopped by Breakthru Radio Live Studio to play some songs! Here is “Twenty-Seven!” which is one of my many motivational mantras…kinda like saying, “Don’t give up, self! Don’t give up!”
Parallels, live!
Fire - live in Athens! Me on guitar/vocals, Christian on bass, Colin on drums, and Dave on more guitar!
