new song = the dictionary version

Hello there… I am still alive believe it or not, and have actually even been writing a few new songs.
I performed a brand new song called “The Dictionary Version” a few nights ago at 3rd and Lindsley during a special Music City Unsigned 4th Anniversary show.

It’s always a bit nerve-wracking for me to unveil a new song, especially one like this where I’m still fine-tuning it. However, this show had a great and welcoming crowd so I’m glad they got to hear it first!

Here’s a video clip with a little bit about the story behind the song, and me performing it. Let me know what you think!

“god rest ye merry gentlemen” @ the bluebird cafe

A few weeks ago I had the pleasure of playing at the historic Bluebird Cafe with some dear friend’s in special “Christmas-ized” writer’s round.

See below for video footage of me playing the Christmas Carol, “God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen.”

Make sure to check out my studio recording of this song too.
