A new song available on Bandcamp: CANAAN I attempted to write a song about the Israeli/Palestinian conflict that, standing in the gates of the Gaza, I could sing facing either direction, and the people behind me could feel I was singing for them.

After some rigorous science and methodical experimentation, Maizy and I determined that dry ice is -- and forgive me for getting technical here -- AWESOME AS F*CK! Feel free to peer review our work.

The best thing I've listened to in a long time. A @lexfridman long form podcast with two Anthropic team members: @DarioAmodei and @AmandaAskell (who works on AI alignment). Really provocative stuff on the state and vector of thoughtful AI development.

If you are the migratory sort, and flying to warmer regions over on Bluesky, here's a link to my newly created profile over there. Perhaps it will be a place of civility and sharing. Better yet if populated.

I'm coming to Ohio next weekend!  I'll be playing in Athens, OH and then in Jefferson, OH (just outside of Cleveland).  I hope to see all my swinger friends (swing•er, noun: likely voter residing in a swing state). Reservations are available through my website calendar.

Here’s a live video from my living room of the song, No One Sings For The Four Of Clubs. As we're entering the home stretch of the next presidential election, I think this song is timely and apropo. I hope you'll share it with your peeps. Thanks! Link:

I continue to be saddened by the escalating conflict between the Israelis & Palestinians. Here's a video of my song "Canaan" that I recorded live in my living room yesterday. I hope it can breathe a little extra empathy into the situation. Link:

Hopefully this post doesn't overwhelm the Twitter servers with one of those left wing DDOS attacks . . . but here's my upcoming concerts for the next couple weeks. I hope to see you in MO, KS, or VA!

NEW SONG: No One Sings For The Four Of Clubs. Listen & Download for free from Bandcamp. It's a song about grievance, and about the downstream consequences of not hearing each other when we disagree. Thanks for listening!
