Just over a year ago, I released the largest project I have ever taken on, my full-length album Prodigals & Thieves. This record spans almost 4 years of my life, from the time I wrote the first line of \”Not Ready\” until the day it was released into the world. A year after it\’s release I am still incredibly proud of these songs and enjoy every opportunity I have to play them live. 

I got the recording bug a few months ago, and thought it would be fun to take the first five songs from Prodigals & Thieves and re-shape them, to see what else might be there that I haven\’t tapped into before.

Quality is often judged by price tags. That’s just how it is. It’s not necessarily a bad thing, but it can be deceptive. In music, it can be easy to judge he quality of a musician by the price tag of his gear. Oh, he has that guitar, or that amp, or that badass pedal that does what mine can’t.

Sometimes it can be hard to nail down the exact story behind the song. Songs are elusive by nature, and it’s rare that I can recall that exact moment where a song truly came to life. But this one is different, this one is one I’ve shared from the stage so many times that it is permanently engrained in my memory.

Imagine that it’s 2AM you’re in bed, eyes closed, somewhere between waking and dreaming. It’s that place where the cares of the day have started to fade and your mind goes into autopilot. Suddenly you hear a voice in your head, a voice that feels like it’s in the room with you. Oh, and that voice sounds an awful lot like Johnny Cash.

I am beyond excited to announce that I will be playing at this year\’s Sundance Film Festival! This is a bit of a dream come true and I can\’t wait to share my songs on these stages. If you will be at the Sundance this year, or know someone who is, come hang out!
