Dear JAMfans,

 

I've been slammed, but in a good way as it means I can provide for my family. Here's some forthcoming highlights: 

 

In June Kurt Baumer and I get to treat our wives to a working vacation from Phoenix to Sedona to Flagstaff in Arizona. In July we're playing a major Independence Day Weekend show with Corey Morrow, The Jango Walker Band, for the Roddick Youth Tennis Programs. I'll play golf, tennis and sing too! In the Fall we'll tour France, Switzerland, Austria, Germany and still possibly Spain. Wouldn't it be cool if you could plan a getaway to join us there! 

 

Plus, in the studio I've been producing several talented young singer-songwriters including Kandyce Hope Simpson of Florence, & in the future Meredith Piatek & London Baleigh of Marble Falls. 

 

My achilles has healed to where I'm now up to two sets of singles again. Plus my family is healthy and doing well in their respective lives. We had recently moved our daughter and granddaughter into our home so that Aubrie could get her business off the ground. She's back on her own, but it was great for PapaJam, me, to spend time with Ari Ezra! Ryan finally got a job in Environmental Safety, which was his field of study at Texas State U.--hurray! Mariah is doing well with work at a local department store, while Falon is still making all "A's" in nursing school. 

 

I've taken on another residency at Blue Corn Harvest in Cedar Park, near Austin. We play there every Thursday, 6-8 P.M.. We still do The River City Grille every Wednesday from 7-9:17 P.M. and Reunion Grille every Sunday from noon to three.  And, I've taken on a new sponsor, Rebecca Creek Distillery, a micro-distillery in San Antonio, who is added to the list of my other sponsors, DR Strings, Northstar Bank, & Dr. David Weber. Thank you so much. We'll see you down the trail soon.

 

vaya con Dios,
