Last weekend’s Y O U / Yacht Rock gig marathon was exhausting, but ultimately pretty sweet.  Ponderosa’s new CD brings the thunder, and we got some 500 Songs coverage / photo love from both Mixtape Atlanta and Metromix.
I’m in Indiana this week playing in my dad’s annual rock history concert – American Pie.  Gina and [...]
