2021 Summer Tour, Tales from the Road
There are good humans everywhere. I know it. I’ve seen and felt it. When humans label themselves as one thing or another, I believe we miss a lot if we only see what’s on the label. Yes. We all do it. It feels safe. It takes the guessing away and means we don’t have to...
2021 Summer Tour, Tales from the Road
Yesterday, I got carried away on the relationship between us as a band and our audience. Today, our last official day out, I’d like to tell you about Steve and Ginger. We did a LOT of talking over the 2 days we were together, so there’s no way to even “long story short” this one....
2021 Summer Tour, Tales from the Road
I feel like a broken record. In these blogs for this tour, so much has been: “These people are amazing” “This home is beautiful” “The audience loved the music” “People laughed and cried” “We sold so much merchandise” Well, it is all true. What I’ve learned during all of it is that “like” indeed attracts...
2021 Summer Tour, Tales from the Road
After our show at the Celtic Cowboy, we wanted to get a jump on the long drive to Boise so we left that night and drove a few hours before finding a secure place to pull off the road and sleep. Woke up a little outside Lincoln, MT, packed up and headed out. One more...
2021 Summer Tour, Tales from the Road
Well, we finally heard it. I thought, maybe this tour would be different. Maybe, we had broken the curse. I probably jinxed us in yesterday’s blog by going on about our amazing shows and warm fuzzies. Whatever the reason . . . “It’s never this dead here. You should have been here last weekend. It...

The morning was sunny and beautiful, and we felt like walking around the farm a bit to see what there was to see. We’d met the animals, but, Rudy really wanted to see if we could go back and find the first animal that greeted us upon our arrival to the Klippenes farm . ....
2021 Summer Tour, Tales from the Road
Once upon a time, in an airport far, far away, where people were allowed to travel all over the world without fear of disease, quarantine, death, etc. It was a time when musicians flowed freely among the tourists and travelers to the Pacific Northwest, entertaining them between flights, breaking up their boredom with stories, and...
2021 Summer Tour, Tales from the Road
Monday: Rollin’ on the River Both Joe and Brooke had Monday off, so we loaded up the raft and paddle boards, all piled into the two trucks (one to be left at the end of the float, and one to take us to the drop off), stopped at the store to fill our coolers with...
2021 Summer Tour, Tales from the Road
Two years ago when we were in Missoula, I saw a beautiful tattoo on my friend Brooke and asked her for her tattoo artist’s contact info. We connected and he did one of my favorite tattoos ever! So, naturally, this year I HAD to get more work done. Once again, Trevor Parr delivered, creating my...
2021 Summer Tour, Tales from the Road
“Mom!!! Take a picture of me with this straw wrapper on my lip!” A prime example that not all days are full of excitement. Jared needed the public library again, so Rudy and I were left to our own devices so Jared could work uninterrupted. After this epic moment with the straw wrapper, I knew...
