It's been three months since my last Hobo Travelogue, and the doorstep of this new year feels like a good place to send a little note from. Marking another lap around the sun reminds me of all I…
Would you believe it's October and we're still on the road?!? We're in Ithaca, New York to play my agent Lara's new concert series Beacon on Aurora tonight, then we're winding our way circuitously homeward via Louisville, Kentucky…
Wherever this finds you, I'm grateful that you're on the receiving end of these Hobo Travelogues. As long-term subscribers know, I usually try to send 'em out once a month or so, to toot the horn about upcoming…
I've been struggling to get a Travelogue together for a while now, but the pace of tour down here hasn't left me much free time or mental real estate. I'm currently at the halfway point of a Festival…
I'm writing you from home, which is such a sweet syllable to savour that I've been saying it extraneously these days, stretching out the long "o" so it feels like a word you could live inside.
It tickles me to think that a few thousand of you have given me permission to land a letter in your inbox once a month or so, and I endeavour to treat that welcome with the care it deserves…
It's high time I wrote you a letter. Last you heard from me, the Second Chances and I were just about to dive back into the shows after getting COVID derailed a bunch of our tour dates. Well…
It's been too long since I wrote. Life's been uncommonly busy for me this past month and a half, what with getting home, getting the Second Chances back in action, getting together with the whole family up at…
I'm writing from the Folk Alliance International conference in Kansas City to let you know I just released a new song! I'd love to get it to as many ears as possible, and maybe, hopefully somehow, to the…
I'm writing you from a little piece of heaven overlooking Gamble Bay on Washington's Kitsap Peninsula, where we played in a barn Sunday evening and have taken our hosts up on their offer to spend a couple more…
I'm writing you from our campsite in Joshua Tree National Park, where we're getting ready to drive into L.A. County for a brief brush with the stage before we head back into the woods, taking comfort in Carolyn…
Here's a rare thing for your eyes: a teeny weeny Hobo Travelogue, minus the long rambles and rants, just to keep you in the know on the near-to-here! Nearest of all, our first Roadetta Roadshow airs TONIGHT at 6pm…
Wherever this finds you, I hope you're safe, healthy, staying inspired, and enjoying the company––in person or virtually––of people and animals you love. I'm writing you from my Riverdale, Edmonton home…
I'm writing you from a cabin in the Adirondacks, a spot I've mentioned in this Travelogue before, when I stayed here in October of 2015 and wrote a song called "Further Down the Line." Over the years I'd…
Much to my amazement, and possibly yours too, this Travelogue's coming to you from the road! I've been winding my way along the North Shore of Lake Superior, and decided to take a motel day––which grew into…
It feels surreal, friends, but here I am writing you from the passenger seat once again!!! The Second Chances and I are headed up to Grande Prairie for a sold-out yard concert, and onward for a dozen shows away from…
It's been a while without word from me, unless you're on my Patreon. I uploaded a new song called "When God Was Young" a couple weeks back, and am just finishing up a new soul number in tribute to…
I wanted to drop a line to let you know that we won't be live-streaming tonight as planned. We've had a hard week. Our darling Foxy started walking funny on Monday, and by Wednesday morning we had to…
Earlier this year I made a new friend, self-described “old folksinger” Bob Bossin of Gabriola Island, BC. Bob’s old band Stringband was a pretty big deal in the 70s and 80s; had their songs covered by the likes of Pete…
