Today marks 10 years to the day since my first show with at Eli’s bbq in Cincinnati. What a decade it’s been!
Around the time this first photo was taken I was still working a day job waiting tables at a brunch restaurant in Nashville. A week or so later, after that weekend of gigs, I took the plunge and quit that job to hit the road with Billy full-time.

I haven’t kept a very accurate count, but I believe at this point we’ve played around 1,000 shows together. The stages and audiences may have changed over the years, but I’m grateful our friendship and musical partnership have remained much the same in many ways, and have grown in others.
Much love to Billy, the rest of the band and crew (many of whom have been around almost as long by now!) and to all who’ve been there along the way.
