Greetings Folks,
So many things have been going on
in Your Friendly Neighborhood Christian Country. Pretty much as soon as I
announced that I’d be taking a hiatus from MANIFEST to focus on completing my
record, my dance card started filling up with a number of performances and
other opportunities. I’m not complaining in the least, it’s just been really
interesting.
I had the honor and privilege of
being a special guest for Gabriel Newell’s performance during The Road to
Nightfall competition. That was tremendous fun, the energy was incredible, and it
was a really humbling experience. I’m really glad to have known Gabriel over
the years and to witness the quality of the band he has. Those brothers kick
out the jams.
This past Friday night, Ms. Amber
Fults and her band WON the whole shebangabang. They’ll be headlining a
Nightfall date this year. I’m also so proud to see how much effort they’ve put
in, and, at the end of the day, to call them friends. Be on the lookout for
when they take the stage at Miller Plaza !
Over the course of this past
weekend, I performed in Act II: Mudita and at Jerry Allen’s Poetry
& Punchlines show. Both were immensely fun. Act II took place at
Barking Legs, and I got to share the stage with multi-instrumentalist Robin
Burk, dancer Eliza Luminara, and comedian/actor/storyteller Andy Pyburn. Each
of us brought something distinctly different to the stage, and it was really
interesting to witness.
At Poetry & Punchlines,
it was great to see how the show shaped up. Things kicked off with some improve
comedy before I got into my set. This was my first time at Mocha (I know that I’m
extremely late), but I really enjoy what they’ve done with the space since it
was Melanie’s about ten or so years ago. My set went well, and it was cool to
see Tommy Bottoms and Odell perform as well as grab a bit of face time with the
both of them after the show.
Switching gears, I’m so excited
about hitting the Terminal West stage in Atlanta
on April 20th! I would absolutely love to see some Chattanooga
faces out there as well as some of my ATLiens in the crowd. I’ve got a few
special tricks up my sleeve for the occasion, too. Tickets can be purchased
here: http://www.rawartists.org/atlanta/marvel/?artist=128773
Well, that’s all I’ve got time for
right now. Be good, stay healthy, and I hope to see you in ATL if not before.
Blessings
