This morning, I took the most amazing snow photo ever. File this mind blowing photo under #snowpocalypse #2011 in the #atx. Oh, and since you’re here get more details on our CD release by clicking here.

I used a new service called Storify that is still in beta mode to put together a collection of viewpoints on day two of Austin City Limits Music Festival. I hope you enjoy.
The big story in town this weekend is, of course, the Austin City Limits (ACL) music festival.
But if you can’t get to ACL and you are still looking for an outdoor music experience on Saturday, let me suggest that you check out Charlie Faye and Jesse Aycock at Wyldwood Shows in beautiful South Austin (4205 Wyldwood Rd., Austin TX, 78739).
Charlie kicks off the event at 7:30 p.m. The show costs $10. Here’s a video of Charlie Faye performing “Runaround” with Will Sexton.
Here’s Jesse Aycock at the Cactus Cafe performing “Used To Be.”
This is a follow up to my previous post and highlights the top five things I learned from going to see live music tonight.
I’m headed out tonight to soak up some live music here in Austin, Texas. I thought I should quickly tap out my top five reasons for going to see live music as a way to kick off this Songwrite Blog.
I often get song ideas while driving around town.
I don’t see live shows as often anymore. A body in motion tends to stay in motion and a body at rest tends to stay at rest. I want to be in motion.
I’m going to see Jess Klein tonight. She’s a recent transplant from NYC and a talented songwriter.
There is nothing better than a live performance. A recording never captures the experience of being in the room while music is made, plus you never know what’s going to happen.
It’s always great to learn more about how others write their own songs and to see the impact that a song can have on an audience.
