NYC on Sunday 11/24

Rockwood Music Hall

New York friends… you asked for it. So here it is. I’m playing Sunday on the Lower East Side. It’s a free show and not too late for a Sunday, either. I hope you can make it!

Early Sunday evening, I’ll be playing as part of the band backing Christina Alessi. We’re performing at the Rockwood Music Hall on the Lower East Side, which is arguably one of the best live venues in NYC to discover new live music. Every single time I walk into the place, I see a great band. And there’s no cover charge! Win. Win.

Banding Together 2013 features 30 minutes of original music recorded absolutely live. No auto-tune. No overdubs. No editing. Just my voice, acoustic guitar, and whatever other sounds occured during the performance. The album features eight original songs in their simplist form.

This recording originally aired as part of the Banding Together Webathon Concert to benefit the Spondylitis Association of America on blowupradio.com.

Please consider donating to the Spondylitis Association of America here: www.spondylitis.org  

I hope you enjoy it!

 

 

Hoboken with Christina Alessi

Tornado Potato

I hope to see you on Thursday night in Hoboken, NJ when I play with Christina Alessi and Damien Musto at Northern Soul.

Unfortunately, we won’t be eating tornado potatoes at an outdoor festival, but we will be playing music indoors at a bar! I’m looking forward to a fun night at Northern Soul in Hoboken on Thursday. I’ll be playing behind Christina Alessi along with Damien Musto. So it’s 60% Hey Tiger. But 100% awesome.

Plus, our super-talented friends Jonathan Andrew and Jason Kundrath each have sets of their own. So the entire night is going to be fantastic.

I recorded a solo acoustic live set for the upcoming benefit for the Spondylitis Association of America, called Banding Together. It airs next weekend, Friday-Monday (10/18-10/21) and features some great local artists including Jonathan Andrew, Joshua Van Ness, Paul Rosevear, and The Wag.

Click here to see the complete schedule on blowupradio.com. My performance will air at the following times:

  • Friday, October 18th 7:30pm
  • Saturday, October 19th 7:30am 
  • Saturday, October 19th 4:35pm
  • Sunday, October 20th 4:35am 
  • Monday, October 21st 12noon

If you donate during the benefit weekend, you will receive a free digital compilation album. The album features exclusive tracks from the artists performing. I donated the first song in my set to this compilation.

My set features 30-minutes of original songs. Just me and an acoustic guitar. It’s not too often that I perform as a solo acoustic artist, so I hope you are able to listen at blowupradio.com.

PS – I released last year’s Banding Together performance as a digital album. You can stream it, download it, and pay what you want for it right here.

My Twitter Is Blushing

I recently finished pre-recording a live acoustic set for BlowUpRadio’s Spondylitis Benefit Webathon, which will air in October. I sent it over to Lazlo at BlowUpRadio… Not only did he listen to it right away, but he was kind enough to enthusiastically tweet on my behalf! It’s so refreshing to work with someone who is truly vested in spreading the word about independent, original music. Thank you, Lazlo!

Here are the tweets:

Totally unfiltered and completely laid back, you can listen to the three of us play original songs and talk about everything from the songwriting process to Wonder Woman. Enjoy.

It was so nice, we had to do it twice.

The songwriters collaborative is back at Northern Soul in Hoboken, NJ tomorrow night! Unfortunately, Adam couldn’t join us this time. But it’ll still be fun. And it’ll still be FREE!
