Thanks for watching friends

I wanted to give a sincere thank you to Doug Jarrell for the fine work on my instruments

To D’Addario and Andy Pitcher for the supplies

To the boys at Goodrich Sound for the bangin’ new volume pedal.

Upcoming things to look out for:

In Stereo vinyl will be here in early July, appreciate your patience on that

There are still a handful of tickets left for the Guthrie and Uncle Larry record release parties in august 16 and 17…it’s about to be sold out

There are still tickets around if you wanna come see old Larry plunkin in the band behind Vince Gill at the Ryman for a few nights August 1-4

Guthrie and I are going to Hotlanta next week to film an episode with Rick Beato talking about our new record as well, so keep an eye out for that too friends
