Here’s a new song called “Las Cruces Sunset” which will be on my next record coming out (hopefully) in February. The song was intended to be about my bus ride to the west coast way back in 1982 in pursuit of the rock and roll dream. Instead, it took a mind of its own (which songs often do) into the social current and heartbreak territory of immigration. I do make a brief appearance in the song, but as it turns out, there were other dreamers on that bus.

Right-on! This is gonna be a blast!

Thursday the 4th the band and I will be back on the WDVX Six O’Clock Swerve. Join us at Barley’s or tune in on your radio dial.

On Saturday the 5th I’ll be playing Camperfest in Kodak again, but this year I’ll be performing with Mic Harrison And The High Score. Another killer line-up this year, which also includes Mic’s old V-roys band mate, Scott Miller. I can’t confirm or deny… but if you’re betting on the Kentucky Derby, I’d also lay good odds that these two will end up on stage together at some point during the day.

The following Saturday, the 12th, my band and I will be playing The Black Dragon Breakdown at The Shed in Maryville.
