Honeyed Out

Wed, 10 Feb 2010 00:00:00 -0800

First off - thanks to the hardcore Greenbelters who braved the snow to come and enjoy a great night of music at the New Deal Cafe this past Sunday. In response to the calls for a recording of my version of Honeyed Out written by Kris Delmhorst, I have this link on YouTube to Dave Nenner's recording of one of my open mic performances in Ellicott City. The recording picks up in the middle of "No More" (one of mine) and "Honeyed Out" starts at about 1:35. Enjoy!

LAST JUDGE'S BENCH SHOW TONIGHT!

Thu, 21 Jan 2010 00:00:00 -0800

Yes, the rumors are true. As I have been putting more time and energy into my veterinary career, the amount left over for gigs that run to the wee hours is dwindling. As such, the gig tonight, Thursday, January 21st will be my last Bench show until the summer. So come on down and help me end this run with a bang! The Judge's Bench is a fantastic neighborhood pub in Ellicott City with a marvelous microbrew selection (and none too shabby in the scotch department, as well). This is a favorite venue of mine, and there seems no fitter place to park my bar gigs until later in the season. I'll be playing from 9 PM to 1 AM and the kitchen stays open late. More details to be found on the calendar page. And mark your calendars for the CD Release Party at the New Deal Cafe in Greenbelt, slated for Saturday April 3rd.

Benefit Shows this Fall!

The leaves are turning and the weather's gone all topsy-turvy, so it must be Fall here in DC! And that means benefit shows for all kinds of furry critters, from wild to domestic. Check out Mo's upcoming open house shows at these special locat shelters: The Second Chance Wildlife Center (Sat., Oct. 17 in Gaithersburg) and the Washington Animal Rescue League (Sun., Nov. 1st). These are both family-friendly all ages events - hope to see you there!

And the hits keep coming...

Hey there! What a great summer it's been - I've been all over the DC area, meeting and playing for lots of new folks, and I've met some awesome people. It's only going to get better this Fall, with lots more acoustic shows. The calendar is filling up quickly and I can't wait to see all my new friends again.

I'm also now in regular rotation on Jango.com, the best internet radio station on the web. You can choose your own artists (like Morrigan), and it designs the playlist according to what you like, including making suggestions based on your preferences, which you can approve or not. The more you use it, the better it learns your tastes.
