Toll Collectors Featured on Live at NLK Studio

We are thrilled to be featured in one of the recent episodes of LIVE at NLK STUDIO: THE LATEST NOISE. Check it out on YouTube here, or in the embed below. We play a live three-song set – “Where the River Flows,” “North Country Snow,” and “Leave the Light On.” It was such a pleasure to work with Courtney, Jack, Mike, and the whole crew. Enjoy!

As always, you can listen to our record, Raindrops and Watercolors, anywhere you stream music.

Banding Together Webathon Starts 10/15

I’m happy once again to participate in the Banding Together Benefit for the Spondylitis Association of America. The Webathon starts tomorrow, Friday, October 15, 2021 at noon. My set will air live at 4:45pm on Friday. The Webathon continues through Sunday at 9:15pm.

See the full schedule and tune in at blowupradio.com.

Please also donate to the cause! There’s a 46-song compilation of exclusive tracks available as appreciation for your support. I have a brand new song on it, called “Know.”

Here’s a quote from the event organizer, Lazlo.

“It means so much to me that we are able to do this benefit for the Spondylitis Association Of America each year,” says Lazlo, the founder of BlowUpRadio.com and the organizer of Banding Together. “My wife was diagnosed with spondylitis 15 years ago. I have watched the debilitating effects of this disease and the chronic pain and discomfort it causes.”

Hope you can tune in and donate at blowupradio.com!

Songwriter Challenge

I recently participated in a songwriter challenge for The Latest Noise Wine and Song where I composed an original song to a spoken word poem. I was sent the poem only – I wasn’t told who wrote it and didn’t have access to the poet’s reading. Two other songwriters were sent the same poem. The result? Three very different song interpretations! The poem is “Disbeliever” by Sandra Ann. Check out my version in the video below. 

If you want to see the complete segment with all three song interpretations plus the poet’s reading, check out the full Wine and Song video below. In case the link doesn’t start in the correct spot, go to 14:20 to see the beginning of the challenge.
