Happy New Year!

Huge thank you to all the bands I play with for another amazing year of gigs and great 2024 - 33 Thunder, Red Coyote Band, Heebie and the Jeebies. And a super huge thanks to everyone coming out to support. Whether it’s a honky tonk, dive bar or block party, every gig is a cool gig with cool people. Looking forward to more in 2025!

A couple new dates with 33 Thunder as well! - gig page.
