I'm so excited to announce that my new EP, "Goodbye Chicago," will be available May 24th! It will be available for pre-order beginning May 3rd at iTunes. I will also have physical copies, along with brand new merch, including t-shirts, hats, and Koozies, available for pre-order beginning May 3rd. Anything pre-ordered from my online store will be shipped prior to the release date. I'm so excited to share the project with you. Alexander Webb worked so hard on this project at Studio 516, and I can't wait to finally show you all what he did. I'll have more info and pre-order instructions coming soon! Thank you all from the bottom of my heart for the continued support and for supporting local music!

With streaming music being the popular method to get your music nowadays, it’s still important to buy music that you really love to support the artist. Every time one of my song is streamed on Apple Music, Spotify, Google Play, etc, I earn a measly $.0004. I’m glad my music is being heard, but it makes it hard to continue to record music, with each song costing 1000’s of dollars. With each purchase of a $.99 song, I earn close to $.60 each. You then own it and can listen as much as you’d like while knowing you truly support the artist and the art. While being an Apple Music subscriber, I choose to buy music whenever I truly love an artist. This is my favorite album of 2018. Thank you Jordan Davis for providing me with my soundtrack for the last year. I pretty much always choose vinyl anymore, because they usually come with a download and I don’t have a CD player in any of my vehicles anymore. Please, support the arts, and support live music. #vinyl Edit: the best way to support an artist is by going to a live show, and buying merch directly from the artist. Merch bought directly from the artist benefits them 100%. My friends know I love merch at live shows, but it’s my way of supporting the artist. #gotoconcerts #buytshirt #buyhats #buykoozies #buyalbums

I’ve only got 1 gig booked right now in March and I would like to get another couple. I’ve got 3 dates that I’m not currently busy with other stuff. The 1st, 15th, or 29th. Any suggestions or tags from bar owners or managers would be great. Thanks!

This dude is a true artist and songwriter; left his label so he could produce music the way he wanted and not be a part of the machine. Can’t wait to hear the album Tucker Beathard!

I hope y'all dig my version of this great tune from a great new artist.

Happy National Farmer’s Day to all my fellow farmers!

Unfortunately, I will not be playing today at Okoboji Grill. I’m a little under the weather as they say and it’s left me with very little voice. I hate having to do it but I’m afraid I wouldn’t be much of an entertainer today. I have faith though that y’all will find a way to enjoy this beautiful Sunday.

It’s been a great year so far and I’d love to close out September with some great shows. Then I’m taking a few months to focus on Ashley and my wedding in December and then hopefully party with everyone on NYE. Thanks always for the support and I’ll see ya out!
