Hey i just wanted to say hello. I have some downtime right now and i have been busy writing the 2nd record and im enjoying it. Its weird having some time off cos I have basically been out on the road for the last 2 years but i needed a break but ive also been doing a lot of festival’s too in-between. I recorded my ep 2 weeks ago with my friend and very talented producer Jesse Lauter (Low Anthem and Alela Diane). 

We recorded in a day in a beautiful church with a very talented violin playing fello and im excited for it to come out. Im just picking the 5 tracks from the 7 to put on it right now and the name. I am also putting together my book thingy with the help of my publisher and my dear friend and incredible artist Ben Edge (from Thee Spivs) who is doing the illustrations.

I have some shows approaching mainly on the east coast that you should be able to see below on this website before i start off touring again in september. I also have Austin City Limits coming up which is gonna be amazing. My festival experiences have been nothing short of incredible and the responses and crowds have been amazing. 

I am writing everyday and have been isolating myself so i just wanted to say thank you for all of your enthusiasm for “A Winter Tale” which has now been out 5 1/2 months. People coming to the shows and there passion has been really inspiring and is making my love of playing even more intense. I feel really lucky to have you all on my side.

See you all soon at a show

Bobby
