I had the best IBMA I think I've ever had. I wrangled up a great group of musicians at the last min to join me for my songwriters spot in the Acoustic Trail Suite! A great big thank you to Courtney Hartman, Joe Walsh, Jodi Boyce, Seth Rhinehart, and all the folks who came out and listened!
After that, I was off to Colorado to teach a workshop in Montrose. I had a great group of students and such a great time!
It didn't hurt that I got to spend some time with my niece, Kenna... oh and the rest of my family too.
I've been playing some awesome shows with Nikki Talley lately. I even got to go to Florida in October! Swam in the river... didn't get eaten by alligators... didn't get to eat any alligators... saw some great music!

I guess the biggest news I have to share is that I'll be moving to Nashville in January. I'm planning on staying for at least a year. I'm going to miss the mountains, I'm going to miss North Carolina, but I'm excited to give Nashville a try. I've been threatening to do it for years, so thats right folks, you heard me right... Nashville Tennessee.

Well, I hope to update sooner than later, but we'll see if that happens or not. So just in case, have a merry Christmas and a happy new year!
