Let’s Recap the year
First off, if you’re seeing this, you’ve either purchased a t-shirt or something off of the website, seen me/me and the band play a show, or I scalped your email from google headquarters.
Since the social media algorithm is a labyrinth that can only be deciphered by tik-tok tweens and pseudo-experts I intend on sharing updates, thoughts, and tunes via this newsletter every so often.
So if you’ve made it this far, thank you and I look forward to giving a little more of myself with my words than I can show with n number of photos on Instagram.
They say a picture is worth a thousand words, but I beg to differ.
There’s my disclaimer, so here we go. Newsletter content.
————————————————-
2021 was quite the year both musically and otherwise.
-I closed on a duplex in December of 2022 and started flipping it in February of ‘21. It has recently been finished. It was fun and equally stressful. With a +40 hour a week day job…the majority of my time was allocated to renovation projects, work, and music.
-All facets of the initial band that you may have seen play some shows in 2020 at Game6 or at other STL music events went their respective routes and a new version of a band came together (Jordan Suter and the High Road)
-I, along with the band, had the opportunity to play some absolutely killer shows (See some proof Below).
Support for Josh Turner at Songs4Soldiers in Columbia, il.
Played at Pop’s in sauget, Il a couple of times
Support for Dylan Scott at O’fallon freedom fest in o’fallon, mo
I’d be full of it if I denied that2021 was a lot of work. With my job, the house remodel, and all of the shows, I found myself remarkably busy. But, I wouldn’t have it any other way.
Unfortunately, winter time kills opportunities for the independent musician so I haven’t had an opportunity to play as much as I’d like over the past few months. But there is a co-headlining show schedule at blueberry hill in stl on March 4th.
Moving forward, I intend on releasing acoustic demo versions of the songs that I have written, because I believe they should be out in the world and able to be heard. If a song can find one person and do for them what songs have done for me, then they’re worth releasing..in whatever form.
So there’s a quick look into what’s happening. If you’ve made it THIS far, thanksx2. I very much look forward to sharing my songs and my thoughts through this platform
We’ll see you at blueberry hill on March 4!
