Friends, I’m under the radar on this gig email ‘cuz we’re on a family vacation and I’m keeping the biz element on the down low. We’re hanging with the extended family in a house right on the beach and immersing ourselves into the magic and mystery of the Wild Blue. Speaking of which, the surf was great this morning and as I was making my way down the rocks I slipped and carved a fairly cool swath into my shin. I’m including a photo just to share the saltwater sting that took place once the scrape met the ocean. Yeoowwwww! Oh well, just part of the flow when you you’re attempting to get beyond the endless stream of data flowing at you via a screen of some sort. Get out, live wild and let it go…

For this week I’m thrilled to play a show with my old pal Deborah Liv Johnson. I’ve known her forever and we’ve recorded and played live and always come up with a cool blend of folk music and jazz. For this concert we’re heading to the Summit Unitarian Universalist Fellowship in Santee. I’ve done one show there before and it’s an excellent environment for music. I hope you can make it out.
