Hello, there, Everybody Wonderful! Just back from Virginia, where I had two terrific shows, thanks to John Gorka, who let me tag along and hop on some shows. As always, he is so inspiring and self-deprecating...one of the kindest, funniest people I know with a voice that leaves you breathless in it's beauty. If you have never heard John, or want to check out his new recordings, please visit http://www.johngorka.com. You will not be disappointed! So this is a big THANK YOU to John! And to Scott Hammer (Shady Grove Coffeehouse) and Kelly Murphy (Harris Creek Acoustic) who popped me on the bills.
