Hey everyone. I'd just like to thank all of you that came out to the Golden Rail show on Friday night and a special thanks to One Trip Garden for inviting me out. Sadly, I didn't get any pictures but I'll definitely make a better effort next time. I had a great time up in Newburgh and I can't wait to do it again so with that said, I'm pleased to announce that I'll be supporting OTG on March 20th in Portland, CT at The Soaring Eagle. More details about that and other shows in the city are forthcoming so stay tuned.

Greetings everybody. So they say that recording music is always a learning experience and this new recording of a rather old tune entitled Simpler has certainly been more of a learning experience than I could ever have imagined. It's the first time I've ever tried to contend with instruments other than just an acoustic guitar while recording solo stuff. This is also the first time I've ever programmed drums, played bass on a track, engineered and mixed a full "band" and I've fought all of these elements for nearly 4 days straight. And now, I can't wait to do it again. Music is amazing in that way.

And just as a reminder, I'll be performing solo this Friday night supporting One Trip Garden in Newburgh, NY at the Golden Rail. More details about this show are listed on my shows page.

I hope you enjoy the new tune (which may undergo some remixing here and there so check back) and I'll see you all very soon. - josh
