a live radio interview and performance on 90.1 KPFT, https://archive.kpft.org (Friday Mar. 6 – Wide open spaces, 2:01ish)
“fiddle tune fridays” with the 5th grade orchestra at the prestigious “Village School” in Houston,
an evening show at JP HOPS HOUSE in Houston,
a house concert in Kemah, Tx &
a brunch concert at the Lakewood Yacht Club.

 

Captain Rocky and 1st Mate, Jane showed us tons of hospitality, some late night jamming and treated us to my very first sailing expedition in Galveston Bay aboard the “Solstice”.

Torchy’s Tacos and some late night sushi.

 

Big thanks to the Roark and all at KPFT, Bonnie and the Kemah crew, Simon, Rocky & Jane for the hospitality and hosting (and for the sailing) and to the Lakewood Yacht Club.  Special thank you to my brothers and sister in Under the Big Oak Tree.    Hope the music brings us back together soon.

Amazing radio home of KPFT is a colorful flower blooming in an already hip neighborhood.

We jam. As often and for as long as we can on a “daylight savings” eve.
