newsletter: amazing april touring!

Howdy Web Denizens,

i’ve been laying low at home these last few months (mostly), deep into the writing of a new record. a friend of mine said songwriting is like going fishing. you put your line in and wait. so, i’m going fishing very diligently every day and hoping to catch some new songs for you.

however, i’ll be taking a short break from that this april to head out for a fantastic series of shows. there are some festivals, club dates, a keynote address, even my first ever day-long writing workshop. each one is special for unique reasons, so i encourage you to scroll down the list below and see if anything, ahem, hooks you.

tourdates after the jump.
