Week of November 7th

The change of season is in full affect in Texas. It’s been quite nice around here the last few weeks.

This past weekend was a lot of fun. We did a few shows with the Ryan Montbleau Band from Boston. It had been several years since I’d last seen them in Park City, UT but I’ve been keeping track of them intermittently. During that timespan I’d say they have been on the road as much as any band I can think of. We were all excited about playing with them and they did not disappoint. They were just fantastic. I highly recommend checking them out live if you get the chance.

I recently had the pleasure of recording with my friends, T-Bird And The Breaks. Here is a video from the session that they just released this week. This is fonky

I saw Rich Robinson and his band last Wednesday night in Austin at Stubb’s. Somewhat of a lackluster turnout but nonetheless they were killer. It was a fantastic show. Rich is a man of great emotional stature and everything he sang and played was heartfelt and epic. His new record Through A Crooked Sun is really worth checking out.

I’ve also been listening to Chuck Prophet’s record No Other Love a lot recently. The whole album from front top to bottom is great. Some really great vibes here…

“Man does not like to admit his wrong attitude to himself. He is afraid of his own faults. But the man who looks his own error in the eye, the man who criticizes himself has no time to criticize others. It is that man who will prove to be wise.” ~Hazrat Inayat Khan
