Three cheers for our beloved pal John Richards (and the fine folks at King 5's Evening Magazine)!
We were STOKED to get to play on The Morning Show with John Richards a couple months back. John is not only one of the best DJs on the PLANET, but he's been a great supporter of my music. Here are the videos of our performance (Note: John vibin' out in the background *smile*)...
I was also real happy to see THIS on the KEXP site this AM!

A huge THANK YOU to all who hosted and attended shows on my first ever Living Room Show Tour! It was a really wonderful experience for me and I hope it was for you too. Each night was truly unique and special and I am now a TOTAL believer in this format for sharing music. There's just nothing else like it! Here's a collage I put together of my loveable little "throne" at each stop. Can't wait for the next LRS tour!
Tacoma, San Francisco (x2), Cambria, San Diego, Venice, Pasadena and Seattle!
...that my song "Everyone Belongs to Someone" would fit perfectly on the soundtrack of Zach Braff's big, new post-Garden State movie. Being featured alongside The National, Flaming Lips and The Shins sounds mighty fine to me! Let's do this, Zach!

On March 3rd I had the honor of opening for Benjamin Gibbard again, this time at his alma mater, Western Washington University. The crowd was stellar and a crew of some WWU's best and brightest sat me down for an interview pre-show to talk about my creative process and future plans. They made a super sweet little vid! Check it...

So stoked for this show. Tickets will go FAST. Get on it!

The fine folks over at Fretboard Journal invited me to swing by their offices and play a song for their awesome "12 Days of Fretboard" event. I'm honored to have been featured alongside Benjamin Gibbard and Joseph Arthur for Days 1 - 3, and rumor has it there are more badass artists yet to come! See the video below for a sneak-peek of my new song "Swift Arrows" off the forthcoming album.
