United Kingdom, happy to say I’ve added two more intimate solo shows for February 2024.


I’ll be supporting and playing with the good folks of @wildchildsounds throughout UK and Netherlands in January.


All info is on the tour page. Buy your tickets soon before they evaporate into the ether. Can’t wait to cross the pond and see you again.

I’m stoked to have had the joyous honor of joining Ben Kweller and his band on electric guitars and keyboards for his ACL Festival sets, and dates to celebrate the 20th anniversary of his memorable, magical album, Sha Sha. It’s been a pleasure to share the stage with rhythm section extraordinaire Ryan Dean and Christopher Mintz-Plasse, not to mention the otherworldly addition of Heartbreaker Mike Campbell sitting in on a couple songs with us in LA, along with Alex Greenwald and Jason Schwartzman from Phantom Planet joining us to play “California”. A dream of a night!

Thank you to everyone who came out and lent an ear on last month's quick run into the foothills of the Ozarks and the Thirty-Five Corridor. It was a joy to play some solo shows, and to see you all.


As always, thanks for listening. I look forward to seeing you along the way.

For the month of September only, I'm excited to share with you a deep dive into the creation process for Familiar Ground and Tourist. Different Lens: Rarities and Demos, 2019-2022, is available now, via Bandcamp.


A compiled collection from the digital and analog archives, Different Lens contains a selection of the countless demos, b-sides, alternate takes, and sketches created during the years 2019-2022. Written and recorded across the American southwest, Sierra Nevada, Oklahoma, California, and Texas, each track is a brief travelogue that takes from the geography and the itinerant state of mind I found myself in.


Many of these songs became the roadmap that lead me to craft Familiar Ground and Tourist, two records that have boundless concepts and motifs in common with each other, not to mention they were captured and finished as I was in motion between places more often than not. If you listen close, you can hear the songs taking shape and their first steps as I stumbled through the dark and the southwest, towards the coast.


After 9 months of vocal rest, surgery and convalescence, this month has also seen me cleared to sing once again, without worry. I'll be celebrating with a handful of shows this fall, and on into January where I'll be journeying to Europe with Wild Child. Dates are below, more to come.


As always, thank you for listening. I hope you'll check out Different Lens, and I hope to see you out there somewhere!
