Big thanks to Tar River Arts & Culture Magazine for the feature on Carolina Grits Company and our family adventure back to North Carolina.
It has been a wild ride over the last 5+ years and we’re so appreciative of all the support along the way. It’s great to be able to tell some of the story.

My cozy office space yesterday afternoon at Koi Pond Brewing. What a fun set!
Big thanks to the friendly listening crowd that braved the heat to hang out.
We had a few singalongs and I tried out a few new songs.

I’m taking off August and most of September for some family time, writing & recording.
We’re hoping to release a couple of new songs before the end of the year.

Hope you’re having a fantastic summer!
