Lots to talk about

Subject: Lots to talk about

Date: April 30th 2025

I don't have many public gigs lately, only 2 or 3 per month since February but I am doing several private parties each month, and teaching music lessons.
I am teaching harmonica the last Thursday of each month to a small group of people at the Weisman Community Center in Delray at 9:30am for an hour. I am also teaching private guitar lessons as well as the occasional voice lesson. I am also performing for InSpirit a couple times per month so things are okay, just different.
I am still looking for a really cool music venue to play at regularly. Luna Star is a great little venue with good sound, stage and lights, as well as outstanding food. They've been booking me every other month and I'll be there again on 5/16. I'll also be playing on Mike Stock's Folk & Acoustic Music radio show on WLRN on 5/11 to promote that Luna Star gig. Spread the word !!
Check out my website for more info. I have been told to expect a new vinyl LP to be released just in time for December holidays. And I have plenty of wonderful tunes up on BandCamp for download so check it out.
