a breath of fresh air...

mannn...

this weekend was incredible...

for the first time in nearly eight

months we were able to gather

together for two nights of music...

seeing your faces meant the WORLD

to me and the band...

With complete honesty,

there are very few things

I find a profound level of

enjoyment in...

storytelling by way of music

is one of those things...

This weekend,

I felt in a way my soul

come back to me...

and that's thanks to you...

stormy seas and high winds

seem to mirror our

way of life right now

and the past weekend

was the breath of fresh air

we all needed.

We got to share some of our

newest songs, our latest stories

and both nights felt like a dream...

you guys listened,

sang with us and clapped along...

a few tears and plenty of laughs,

it was the perfect display of

how music answers the questions

in our hearts... and cures the conflicts

that exist among us...

I'm certainly overwhelmed with

the love and support I am shown

by this beautiful town

and cant thank you all enough...

I want to express my deepest

gratitude to Queen Anne's Loft

for hosting us for two evenings...

We worked diligently together to

ensure it was a safe and

enjoyable atmosphere...

Amanda, owner of Queen Annes Loft

couldn't have been more accommodating

and I'm grateful for people like her.

To my guys who always

have my back...

Nick Gomes on bass,

Alex Gomes on Cajon,

Luke Dennison on Mandolin,

and Ross MacAndrew on Guitar...

thank you for always amplifying

the love in these songs...

for always showing up,

rocking out and being who you are...

I wouldn't be here with out you guys...

to our good friend Eric Schwartz

for always having our backs, checking in

guests and being the smiling face to help

anyone and everyone at each event...

to this beautiful lady pictured below...

Olivia who spends countless hours

making sure these events run smoothly.

Taking pictures, filming, getting food

and coffee for the band...

talking with all of you as you file in

and the thing i'm most grateful for...

your love...

I'm so very grateful for all you do...

to our sponsors

Newport Propane &

Fitzpatrick Team...

thank you for fueling our movement

to love, live and wander...

and lastly to all of

you who showed up...

from the bottom of my

heart... thank you...

without you, we would

have no one to play for...

you truly are the best part of the music.

much love my friends,

see you soon at the next show...
