Mine was just for a couple posts though. Since you’re using it for more, I’ll find another image!

Uh-oh… I used that Canva image too! 👀

Wishing you all a Merry Christmas, from all of us Participles!

Austin’s daughter made some serious waves in 2024!

Proud of how much my daughter Anara Pearl has grown musically in the past year! From her first open mics to 10+ paid gigs… and still only 11 years old. (Writes better songs than I did at 19!)

As 2024 comes to a close, The Dang Ps are feeling so grateful for every stage we’ve stepped onto in 2024.

Huge thanks to the venues who believed in us, gave us space to share our songs, and helped allow us — along with our fans and your patrons — to "Create a song, add harmony, and sing along!"

Let’s go, Mitten Musicians!

This Michigan Music starter pack will skew towards the indie folk, singer-songwriter, and Americana genres.

If you fit the bill, let me know if you’re interested! (Also included: venues, bookers, etc.)
