On Saturday, May 25th, I’ll be playing a co-bill with Tristan Omand.  Tristan is one of my favorite local song-writers, and this is sure to be a great show.  If you have not heard Tristan before, please check out his site: www.tristanomand.com  We will be alternating solo-acoustic sets starting at 8:00pm.
This is a BYOB event… All ages are welcome (21+ to drink obviously).  The Riverhill Grange is an old schoolhouse, and the vibe is nothing short of laid back.  This is sure to be a special evening.
