Happy Easter and moving forward with more gigs booking up through the summer already. Huge thanks to everyone that came out to 33 Thunder’s last appearance at Keystone Lounge in Ventura this past weekend. I’ll be with them again in May at my favorite spot in Santa Ynez - Maverick Saloon! Speaking of May, I have a lot of jam packed gigs with everyone - May 18 is a double header in Topanga with Red Coyote Band for an afternoon show and then heading back to the south bay to play at Sainte Rock in the evening with Heebie and the Jeebies.
Lastly, I’ll be in Lake Havasu, AZ at the last weekend of May with 33 Thunder for two big nights at Flying X Saloon. Looking forward to moving forward! Even more in June, July and August with 33 and RCB!
