Hope you all got through last week’s blizzard OK…..

I had a really fun show up in Northampton, MA on Sunday (opening for friend Katelyn Richards’ CD release show…check her out!)… really cool venue and crowd. Hope to make it back there again sometime soon!

Btw, while I was stuck inside during Jonas i had some fun changing up lyrics to David Bowie’s “Starman” to fit the blizzard theme.. Check out my diddy “Snowday”!!

Last 2015 show THIS Fri Dec 18th in NYC / CG Holiday Merch Deals!!

Hey everyone,
Hope you’re all rockin’ the holiday season in fine spirits!
I can’t believe how fast this year has come and gone.. 2015 has been a momentous year to say the least, w/ the release of my first full length album, and my first ever music video (w/ a couple more to come!), performing at Lincoln Center, getting some press love from the Huffington Post, Relix (and winning the magazine’s Jam OFF competition), amongst others…. much exciting stuff indeed!

I wanted to take a moment and thank you all for your support this year. I am truly blessed to have you fine people in my corner…not something i take for granted, so, really, from the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU! 🙂
