Last Night at Club Passim

Thanks to everyone who came out to Club Passim last night. What a blast it was for me. I had planned to play the show with a full band, but schedule conflicts and broken automobiles turned it in to a duo show with Lyle Brewer. I'm so glad it worked out the way it did. We had such a great time and I think it turned out great.

My friend Danny Schmidt, from Austin, TX opened the show and was fantastic. I first met Danny at the Folk Alliance conference in Memphis, TN in February. I was blown away by him then and so when he told me he would be in town this week I jumped at the chance to have him on the bill. Danny was joined by singer/songwriter Carrie Elkin, who sang beautiful harmonies on Danny's songs. The two are up here for the Falcon Ridge Folk Festival in Hillsdale, NY this weekend. Both of them have been chosen to participate in the Emerging Artists showcase at the festival. Here's a picture of us, taken after a few drinks following the show :)

Thanks again to anyone who came out last night!
