Happy October!

October is my favorite month.... the colors, the cool, the Halloween. As a kid it meant that the cross-country season was in full swing and you’d find me flying through the woods at a full gallop.

The times never change ? I am still galloping but this time over pavement and highways to a city near you with guitars and suitcases of songs.

My September was filled with the songwriters' retreat and a dream trip to Ireland on a vacation tour. I have been away from home for a month, and now I have to jump into tour dates again.

THE BOOK
I am working on a novel for next year, and I am finishing the third draft. It should be out in 2027 if all things go well. It’s science fiction and will have an album of songs as part of the story itself. It’s called “The Last Song Mankind Wrote.” I will be playing the song that inspired the title at shows this fall.

VACATION TRIPS
JUST ANNOUNCED! I will be leading a group vacation tour to Iceland in 2028!

This incredible journey has always been one of my long term dream bucket list destinations. And now it’s happening! We will be traveling around the island, exploring villages, easy hikes, with waterfalls and lava flows. And then we’ll return to the ship for exquisite meals and performances. Come along for the ride!

CUSTOM SONGS, PRIVATE SHOWS, and ONE ON ONE CREATIVE CONSULTS

When I work from home, I frequently write songs for people or do consilting on creative living and songwriting.

We are always looking to fill the calendar with private or special event shows. Drop me a line in the comments if you are interested!

See you at the shows!
