Loved this place, loved these people, love Woody Guthrie. His spirit is still alive and well due in no small part to the fine folks @woodyfest I was honored to be a part of this beautiful festival and I’ll be back every year they’ll have me. #thismachinekillsfascists #woodyguthrie
Beyond honored to be a part of the Woody Guthrie Folk Festival @woodyfest this year. I get to play my set on July 14th, Woody’s 106th birthday 🎂, in his birthtown of Okemah, Oklahoma, celebrating his life and music with his family, friends, and fans. If that ain’t fucking cool, I honestly don’t know what is. #thismachinekillsfascists #woodyguthrie #folksinger
Backstage @liveoakfest today. 📸 by my dear friend Blue @bluegaborphoto #sneaky
The St. Lawrence river, quite literally my favorite place on earth. I am honored to go back and play a concert with my dear friends on its behalf. July 5th, come find us. It’s gonna be a special time in a very special place. #stlawrenceriver @garrisonstarr @chrispiercemusic @jdaydrum @iamjaynash @mofomoore @bassistmd @emiliecardinaux
Excited to play @liveoakfest this weekend outside Santa Barbara CA, benefiting KCBX Public Radio. I’ll be playing Saturday the 16th on the main stage. Hope you enjoy this flyer they made from this old @shervinfoto 📸 of me leaning on my truck pretending not to give a shit while Charlie lays in the bed actually not giving a shit. #mydogiscoolerthanme #supportpublicradio
Had an exceptional few days. Thanks to @citywinerychi where I had my best CHICAGO gig in years, and had such a great time with my new late night pizza pal @rayezaragoza who beautifully opened the show. Also special thanks to the Stills & Collins tour for my last support show for a while with them at the Meadow Brook Amp... the Collins/Stills camp has the best crew and I am sincerely grateful to them for letting me in their tight knit family for a while, goofing off like kin as you can see with @mr.mofongojones I will miss all you guys and gals :) Drove through some intense rain storms to Ohio #worthit because G.A.R. Hall in Peninsula Ohio is my new favorite venue. Thanks to Karen and Eddie and all staff and volunteers for making sure this magical old building from 1800’s lives on in the most glorious way. It was such a treat to play a sold out show for you fine people in a place I’ve never been. I owe you! Also wonderful to get to meet a great writer and performer @rogerhoover who opened the show. He became an instant old friend and was kind enough to join me for the encore! Made it back to California this afternoon and just got back from a very hot late day hike with Smalls. Sorry for the long post. Now I’m watching the summit with much anxiety. #nonukes
Happy Monday morning. This weekend’s shows were pretty special. Now back to reality in more ways than one. Will write more later. Gotta ✈️ #haventsleptyet #nonukesplease
