I apologize for my absence this last month! I have been on sabbatical (drinking beer and promoting my upcoming releases). I am getting ready to toss a ton of stuff your way, here on Substack as well as the big wide world, and it can get a bit overwhelming to keep up with it all.
Please enjoy this little cover of what I think is the best song on Adrianne Lenker’s album Bright Future (although the entire album breaks my heart and mends it at the same time).
In other housekeeping news, THE PAINTERS comes out next Friday, June 28th. I’m super duper excited for you guys to hear it in its entirety and rock out hard. If you feel so inclined to presave, hit this link. Presaving basically just tells Spotify/Apple Music that there are people excited about the song, and so once it comes out, they use their algorithmic magic to spread it to more people.
I’ve got a few shows coming up as well, including:
Tonight, opening for The Wood Brothers (!) at Infinity Music Hall in Hartford, CT (tix link)
Saturday, 6/22, headlining Stephen Talkhouse in Amagansett, NY (tix link)
Tuesday, 7/2, headlining Union Pool in Brooklyn (tix link)
Also, I’m opening for Jordy Searcy (wowee) this fall. I’ll be on 16 of the tour dates, which is awesome, so peep the schedule by clicking here and hopefully I’ll be running through your town (disclaimer: my first date with him is 9/19 in Dallas and I’ll be with him the rest of the tour).
Finally, my girlfriend Grace just launched her very own Substack called In the Freshwater and I think you will enjoy it! She is thoughtful and funny and it all shines through in her writing. Check it out at inthefreshwater.substack.com.
Anyway, that’s all for now. teaky out.
