New things to share since the Spring came and went. 


Jentel Artist Residency Feb / March cohort

My Spring residency at Jentel was wonderful and I came out of it with three new songs and a few new friends. I’m just now starting to work on them some more (the songs) to get them ready for my recording session this summer with Skot B., my friend who played in the Phantom Limbs with me. 



I’ve got a couple performances coming up, a comedy show this Saturday and a music show at a backyard party in July. This Saturday, Speedo and Margarita are hosting the sensational new variety show, Dark Tickle Experience, which will take place at the legendary Hollywood wig emporium, Outfitters Wigs.
