I've spent the last week talking back and forth with Steven, the artist/designer that's doing the album artwork for me, and I couldn't be happier with the way things are turning out. Even though the artwork isn't finished quite yet, I'm really eager to show you guys. BUT, since I want the final product to really blow y'all away, I've got to hold onto it for just a little while longer while we fine tune it.
In the meantime, I'm happy to announce that I'll be playing a hometown show at The Adelaide on Friday, April 19th. From the looks of it, I'll be headlining the show, so we'll get to have a good ol' time together. I'll be playing a handful of songs from the record, so this will technically be the first time I've ever performed the tunes. In all actuality, this is the first legitimate "show" I've played in over a year! Hard to believe that, but with everything about to happen, I'll be all over the place before I know it.
Thanks for being patient with me through all of this. Some of you have stuck around for over a year, reading my letters and keeping up with me, and it means more to me than you'll ever know.
I look forward to seeing some of y'all on the 19th!
