Hi Folks,

Just back from a great monthlong tour. I wanted to pass along

links to 2 films that are currently being shown, and in which

you'll see me. If you look closely-- you'll find me in both online

trailers. I also supplied music for "Slice of Pie"-- my song,

"Long Way Around" recurs as the theme song.

"Best Americana Album"

"Best Americana Song" ('The Girl')

Just Plain Folks is the largest music awards in the world. Unlike the Grammys…

I was playing a show several weeks ago in Indianapolis, and a fan- DAVE ALLEN- came up to me beforehand and handed me a wonderful hand-made leather guitar strap. Dave makes instrument straps, belts and light leather crafts ("strap't" is his moniker). My new strap will stay with my Lyman guitar and is etched with a lovely dragonfly. Thanks Dave ! and if anyone is interested in contacting him, let me know and I'll send along his info.

Happy to report that the new recording was the most played Album for the month of July on the Folk Radio Chart (www.folkradio.org), and 7 of the songs were among the Top 20. Thanks to all of the Independent, Public, Community and other Radio djs for supporting the Music !

Mid-May will mark the release of "HOLDING UP THE WORLD" on Vault Records in the US and Corazong in Europe. The disc will first be available at The Wildflower and Kerrville Festivals in May.
