“Show On The Road” single and LIFE

Hello fellow humans, here we are at an interesting brink of our civilization in so many ways. A bit of a sink or swim moment if you will.
Well, I choose swim = LOVE. Thanks for staying attuned to my tunes my beautiful friends!
Difficult times for touring musicians as we (or the venues) decide what shows and travel to keep and which ones to cancel.
In the midst of it all however, The Show Must Go On and so here is my latest single “Show On The Road” – some of you have heard it already when you bought my double vinyl “East Of Lincoln” release. But for the more digital fairing folks, please buy a track, stream it, put it on a playlist & share it with your friends, it all helps!Ā https://ffm.to/show_on_the_road

A Post Valentines day – through trials and tribulations – love song! Hope the ones you love can hear you now, as you too, call out to themĀ ā¤ļøĀ šŸŽ¶And I hope to offer some musical solace in these very challenging times my friends. Thanks for listeningĀ šŸ™Ā #newmusicfridayĀ

I found an old cell phone – the nice and easy cheap kind that i miss – pre iphones and androidzzz. I loved the out of focus “older” effect of these shots of my favorite subject on earth, my daughter. I wrote this song soon after she was born. Recorded it in ’05 thereabouts at Stanley Recording with John Wood and his daughter Amy in Venice, CA. Please forgive my over indulgence with my girl but what better way to document this time for me…haha  Love, T  Baby D on Apple Music  #tbt
