    performance: John Prine’s “Angel from Montgomery”

    I uploaded a remix today. My performance of John Prine’s “Angel from Montgomery” with the addition of a new cello track.

    The trio features me on acoustic guitar/vocals, Andy Mosholder on cello, and Aaron Lambert on cahon/percussion. Andy, of Harper’s Ferry, VA, arranged the cello part.

    I’m grateful for my musician friends for finding away to make music during the pandemic. Also check out my Americana/Roots trio Molly’s Mutts. I hope you enjoy this tender new version of a great song.

    “Paper Wings” (Gillian Welch) Cover

    Here’s a track I forgot I had. Recorded a couple of years ago at TNT Studios in Louisville. Personnel: The Bourbon Sidecars with: Michael Jackman (acoustic, acoustic lead, vocal), Erich Stem (fiddle), and Tim Haertel (upright bass). Added some photos of pre-pandemic music life because I miss it so much. By the way, all members of The Bourbon Sidecars are faculty at Indiana University Southeast.

    I added some photos of pre-pandemic music life because I miss it so much. Here’s looking forward to gigging and hanging out with our music buddies again – especially my current group Molly’s Mutts. https://www.facebook.com/MollysMuttsBand

  • “Dead Flowers” Cover

    My carpal tunnel release surgery has healed enough so I’m ready to start playing music again. So here’s a cover of the Rolling Stones’ “Dead Flowers.” It fit my mood after a long, draining day of virtual teaching college students, and didn’t strain the surgical scar with any hard bar chords or long stretches. Hope you enjoy it. Recorded using a 2-channel Yamaha USB mixing console direct into an iMac running QuickTime video app. Post editing to fix out of sync video and audio in iMovie. Thanks for listening! More music on my YouTube playlist: Front Porch Tunes.

    You might also enjoy a cover of “Angel from Montgomery” by John Prine, with Aaron Lambert contributing a socially-distanced percussion audio.
