I'm happy to report that I've been invited to perform at the Hardly Strictly Festival in San Francisco again. This is one of the best festivals around - incredible artists, beautifully presented in Golden Gate Park, and free to the public without any corporate sponsorship!

Thanks to all who attended the Midwest shows in June!! It's almost July and I'm looking forward to the Oregon Country Fair. It's the mother of all hippie style festivals and I will singing with Jerry Joseph and partaking in all the festivities. Then I'll be playing in Portland and Seattle with loads of my pals. Check the Tour Dates section for all the details.

Could it possibly be true that the first Silos album "About Her Steps" was released in 1985? Yikes! Well, we are going to play a 30th Anniversary Concert on April 20. That's this coming Monday night at Midtown Live, 251 West 30th Street in Manhattan. The band will be: Mary Rowell - electric violin, Amy Allison - voice, Konrad Meissner - drums, Walter Salas-Humara - voice and guitar, Jason Victor - guitar, Rod Hohl - guitar, bass and voice, Bruce Martin - keybopard, percussion and voice, Russ Meissner - drums and percussion, Pete Galub - bass and guitar. Please spread the word! Advance tickets are $15. They are $20 at the door, so please save 5 bucks and show your support by buying some HERE. Thanks!!!!!!!

The Texas and SXSW shows were amazing - so many friends old and new, and how bout that Buttercup! and Courtney Barnett! I'm so looking forward to the coming shows on the Eastcoast starting April 17. I got in a couple more days of recording with Rich Brotherton in Austin. I'm more than halfway done on 2 new albums and will be doing more recording on the Eastcoast with Mary Rowell, Amy Allison, and who knows who else!

The Europe tour was amazing!! A hearty thank you to all who attended the shows and to the agents, promoters,venues, and other musicians who made it all possible. It's March and that means Texas and SXSW. I will begin in San Antonio, then on to Dallas, and end with lucky seven SXSW concerts in Austin. I'm looking forward to seeing all my old friends. I'll be posting loads of photos and updates about this wonderful festival on Instagram, FB, and Twitter.
