almost on the road again

Blog update number two for 2012!



I'm still in Loveland Colorado trying to get my act together to get out of here and on to Nashville. I'm also contacting a few radio stations across the country to see about stopping in and saying "hey!"

I just finished up a great workshop at Swallow Hill in Denver Colorado with a great group of students. They were a fun and very creative bunch and such a joy to work with!

Also, here are some pictures of my van updates for all my driving shavannaghans... huh huh.




I'm sure that Ruby and Lump are eager to get going as well. We'll miss the family, and the dog family, but Lump is excited to have Ruby all to herself again.


Wish us luck and I'll write again from the road!

hello 2012


I'm sitting in the living room at my brother's house in Loveland Colorado, looking at my little niece, Kenna, sitting on the top of a pile of dogs in the middle of the floor.

I've been making plans and getting organized. 1012 is gonna be a pretty exciting year for me. I've packed up my van and after a great long holiday with my family I'm getting ready to relocate to Nashville Tennessee. I know that I'll miss Asheville, just like I miss all the awesome places I've lived before, but I'm super excited for my next adventure!


I want to start 2012 by wishing you all the very best year ever!


I've made many new years resolutions this year, we'll see how many of them I keep. In fact, I've already broken a few of them, but I'll just keep trying until next year.


I'll be teaching a songwriting workshop at Swallow Hill in Denver this weekend (January 14th and 15th) and then I'll be reluctantly leaving Colorado once again, watching the mountains shrink in the rear view mirror, that is if I can even see out of it...


Thanks for reading! Merry merry happy happy new year!
