On Saturday, June 20, I am stepping back on stage for a very special, one-night-only reunion show in Rock Island, Illinois. After years apart, The Old 57s are getting back together to play the greatest hits of the 50s and 60s.
While I am excited to perform, this weekend also marks a massive milestone: it will be the first time in my life that I perform these songs without AJ.
The Old 57s was AJ's vision, and he was incredibly proud of this band. The music of this era wasn't just what we played—it was the soundtrack to our love story. For over a decade, AJ and I performed these songs together and they are woven into my heart and soul.
Revisiting the beginning of that story without him there to play the chords will be incredibly bittersweet. His absence will be deeply felt, but I hope to honor his legacy by sharing the music he loved so much with the people who loved him.
Thank you all for always being here for me, and for helping me celebrate a love, a legacy, and a band that changed my life forever.
