Featured Song – Michael Nesmith’s ‘Rio’

Playing solo or running your own band can be a real challenge, but one of the things that make it worthwhile is the freedom to play anything you choose. I’ve wanted to do a version of Michael Nesmith’s Rio (yes, the guy from The Monkees) for years, and now I finally can! Check out my [...]

New Song – Mexican Paradise

When I was touring as a musician, I used to write lots of song – something about being on the road always seemed to make them come more easily. They weren’t a good fit for the types of bands I was playing with at the time, though, so I never performed any of them, just [...]
