The Advocate Session.

The Valley Advocate, a widely-read local weekly, has been taping a series of in-office music videos, much in the same vein as NPR's Tiny Desk concerts. Expertly filmed by staff from Northampton Community Television, and with audio captured by Signature Sounds, the videos are all top-shelf productions of intimate performances in a very cool setting.

I recently taped an Advocate Session, and it is now online. CLICK HERE. There's an interview clip, and another of my five-song set.

Had another marvelous time with my favorite Dublin/Liverpool band Pugwash this past Tuesday, sharing the bill at the Iron Horse Music Hall. Prior to the gig, Thomas and I joined the wonderful Joan Holliday at WRSI (93.9 The River) so Thomas could be on Joan's show The Riversound Café.

My friend Chris and I went to see Mike Peters at the Iron Horse last night, partly because another friend, Scott Lawson Pomeroy, was the opener (he killed it, by the way, per usual). But we also wanted to go because we were both fans of The Alarm back in the Eighties. They had a string of radio hits and were frequently on MTV (remember when MTV was mostly about music?). Probably my favorite song of theirs was Rain in the Summertime. Go ahead, click the link. Catchy, right?

Back In The Charts.

My new single Goodbye Lonely Times has put me in the charts again, at least over at Radio Free Americana. The track was just added this week, and I am sitting at 126, tied with Bob Weir, among others.

My friend Al hosts an Open Mic night each Wednesday at Brew Practitioners in Florence. I stopped in one night early on, but knew ahead of time that I couldn't stay, so didn't have a guitar with me. I finally made it down there again last night, and brought one. Fun evening, great place, good people. I'll be back.
