On The Road Again

With our performance schedule growing more and more as we head into the year, I am looking forward to getting out and fulfilling our performance dates. I am looking forward to it as much or more than ever. I guess being away from something for a while makes you appreciate it more. When Brandon and I were just kids, I don't think we gave it much thought; performing that is. But, now we have added appreciation for the ability to express our art in front of others.

I remember the past when we played literally all over the country as young kids and teenagers. I remember the nervous anticipation right before walking out on stage. I remember the many road trips and countless thousands of miles we've driven and the conversations in between. I remember stopping at truck stops along the way for a restroom break and snacks, and the smell of diesel in the misty night air. I remember the many thousands of people we've got to see and become acquainted with. All these things linger in memory and are missed when one is away from them for an extended period.

This past couple of years have seen some big changes for the both of us. For starters, we both got married to our wonderful wives and that has been a great blessing for us. Then we also moved back to our old hometown from the big city, which was another adjustment. Add in working full-time as we both do, and other responsibilities and performing out on the road for folks has taken a back seat for a while. But now as we've settled in we're looking forward to getting out on the road and playing for the many nice people we've met and anticipate meeting this year.

We have several recording projects in various stages of completion. Brandon and I have another CD together that we're working on, and I have two solo projects also in various stages of completion. I'm not bragging, but I think they're going to be really good if I say so myself.

So, long story short, come on out if you can and catch us at one of the tour dates listed. We look forward to making many more good memories with all of you.
