At the beginning of November, I'll be touring California with some talented friends I don't get to play music with nearly enough: Farmer Dave Scher, Jonathan Wilson, Johnathan Rice & Neal Casal. This Voltron-like assemblage was the brainchild of Dave, who had it in mind for us to travel to parts of Northern California where many of those fellas have never been, and play for the locals during harvest. The plan is to play a few songs of each of ours, and a bunch of tunes we like by others, and just enjoy the journey, so...I hope those of you in California who are nearby will come out and see us. This could be the only time this kind of thing ever happens...who knows?

In Vetiver news, we just played a short California tour, including a lovely show at the Treasure Island Festival here in SF. It was a blast. Thanks to everyone who braved the chilly wind and light drizzle to watch us. Thanks to Chris for traveling down and up with us and lending a (much needed) hand. Thanks to the Sanctuary in Santa Monica for showing us a great time and taking care of us down south, and of course, thanks to Britt for guiding us through the striking vibes of Brookdale. It was great to see friends we hadn't seen in a while, hear Sleepy Sun rockin' out and play the first shows with our new line up. Naturally we inaugurated the line up back east at Frankies Sputino, and so of course, a rousing cheers to the Franks for their generosity and fantastic eats. You guys are the best.
