Howdy, friends! Here’s a little “IN STEREO” record promo video our dear pal Brett Papa put together for us. As you all know, Tom Bukovac & I are SUPER excited & proud to finally be releasing this collaboration record project to you all. It’s all happening MAY 1st, 2024!

What you are looking at here ladies & gentlemen, is the very first physical CD hot off the press of “IN STEREO”. That’s the title of the record that Tom Bukovac and I made are so excited to release to you on May 1, 2024. Thanks so much! TB & GT bakedalaskarecords.com

One of my favorite younger guitar players in Nashville is Sean McDonald who hails from just down the road in Murfreesboro, TN. Sean is a super sweet guy & a ferocious singer & guitar player. This clip is from Blue Monday at the 5 Spot 6-8pm hosted by our main man, Patrick Sweany

Only 2 more days until the release of the Chet Atkins tribute record titled “We Still Can’t Say Goodbye”. I’m way beyond proud & honored to have a featured track on the album. There’s some iconic artists on it so check it out! Here’s a nice write up in the Wall Street Journal.

What a treat having our pal Otis Gibbs join the hang at Fox & Locke in beautiful Leipers Fork. We have been catching up on all things music & beyond. He’s a super cool dude & a delight to be around. Check out his YouTube channel for wonderful stories with some amazing characters!

*NEW EVENT ALERT* I’m extremely proud to be joining this amazing panel of artists as we dive into the world of the Telecaster guitar in this 4-night, 5-day, all-inclusive music vacation. There will be master classes, interactive jam sessions, private performances, & so much more.

I always enjoy any time spent with my good friend Brett Papa. We’ve been working hard on a cool guitar course to release in the very near future and we think you’re going to dig it. He’s also got some great amps at his studio and I have been loving this Divided By 13 CJ11.

This is the real Nashville. Layers deep. I lost track a long time ago of how many time I’ve seen the Pat McLaughlin Band. These guys are my all time favorite people and musicians. Period. I only captured these two little clips because I wasn’t even thinking about my stupid phone!

It’s all happening MAY 1st, 2024! The title is “IN STEREO” & it’s the record Tom Bukovac & I made for you all. May 1st digital download & physical CDs can be purchased. May 1st PRE-ORDERS for a limited run of 2000 double vinyl LPs can be ordered. Thanks so much for the support!

Music doesn’t need to be complicated. It just needs to sound good. Check out this simple major scale melody idea over G/ D/ Emin. Starting on the root (G) first then starting on the 3rd (B). Take some chances! (I said descending, but it’s really ascending I guess).

We're making progress! Here are the actual lacquers being cut for the double LP vinyl of “IN STEREO”! This exciting guitar record project that Tom Bukovac & I did will release May 1st with physical CDs, digital downloads & *pre-orders* for a limited vinyl run. We can’t wait!

BMI always throws the best parties & this is no exception. We’ve been part of this amazing festival for many years and I’m super excited to be going back down to Key West. Some great friends playing finely crafted songs of the highest order. What’s not to love!? See y’all there!

I am extremely proud to be a part of this record project honoring the great Chet Atkins. A big thank you to Carl Jackson for having me on it. I chose the classic song “Caravan” for my contribution. ‘WE STILL CAN’T SAY GOOD BYE’ A MUSICIANS’ TRIBUTE TO CHET ATKINS DUE OUT APRIL 19

No rest for the wicked around here! We’ve been holding down the 8-10pm slot every Monday at the Underdog for over two years now & tonight is no exception! Come join us tonight, Monday April 1st, for some high energy homemade trio music. Telecasting to you from East Nashville!

We are so grateful to live in such an awesome neighborhood filled with amazing friends & an abundance of all the things we need to survive to say the very least. We are super lucky. Let’s not forget that! The adventure continues! Thanks always to Leigh Walker & Chris Griggs.

Great hang in the hood with these two cats last night. The adventure continues.

May 1st, 2024 is the official release date of “IN STEREO”! That’s the title of the record Tom Bukovac and I made with our dear friends. We are way beyond excited and proud to share this music with you! Here’s a little clip of “Uncle Larry” doing his thing on one of our tracks.

I am so excited to join back up with my old buddy and stellar world class talent, Shawn Camp and his super fine band. We will be playing Shawn’s amazing award winning songs April 12th at The Fox & Locke in Leipers Fork. It just doesn’t get any better than this. See y’all there!

Brought out one of the oldies last night in honor of the late great Michael Rhodes. He came up with the coolest bass line for this song & Tim Marks does a great job putting his own spin on it while respecting the original. Thanks for checking us out. The adventures continue!

Ran into these two Nashville staples yesterday while cruising the back alleys of East Nasty. The “Bang This” Twins have been floating around this town for a long time. I find their whole thing fascinating to say the least. The adventure continues!
