I'm playing a house show in Austin, Texas on Saturday early evening w/ Amy Annelle & Dwight Smith. DM me if you want the address or curious about what I'll be wearing.

This is an accurate post. It is being nominated for Album of the Year for Best Vinyl Lacquer Cut & Pressing for an Album with Pedal Steel that Foreshadows Open Heart Surgery.

An album that should appeal to longtime fans of Hurley's weathered leather folk forms. A singular voice; part town square truth teller, part vaudeville spell caster. His songs ramble though grassy blues, tied up with burn pile smoke and sweet breezes, while retaining a studio charm. bit.ly/3KB3PM6

Thank you, but it is my fault for having people play on my records.

For the 4th time this year, I had another "festival" offer rescinded when I told them I don't have a band, so sharing this as example of how you accommodate a solo acoustic act not on a label or working with an agent: PUT ME AT THE BOTTOM.

Peanut is so attention seeking that I don't want to encourage him.

Also dealing with them. Customer Service asked me on the phone: "What should we have done?" I said, "not give away my seat to another customer?" I was told they can't control what happens at the gate. I said, "That's your co-worker, not mine." It did not end well.

Great article, & hope this encourages many to explore the Worried Songs catalog. There's not many labels like them anymore. Ah remember the days when decisions were made w ears & not algorithms... how quaint...

A very appropriate pun headline considering Nic Cage was my surgeon. Thx for the excellent review.

Thanks, Ben! & when I read this on Friday, I saw Pug (on the list above me) was playing 4 miles from my house that same night. No one plays within even 30 miles of my house!! So I went to a rural strip mall bar & watch him slay-George Jones, Billy Joe Shaver, his own tunes. All killer!

It is 100% coincidence that I scheduled this the same weekend as the Austin Record Show. I would never intentionally detour my life & drive 2 hours to buy records from some of the best dealers in the world.

If you're in Austin, TX, or know someone who is, I'll be playing a Cardiac Country record release/happy hour show this Saturday from 5-7 at the Aristocrat Lounge. I drew a cute flyer too.
