Well last Saturday’s Mule Kick Records & Twang City Western Edge / Palomino Rock ‘N Roll Brunch was one for the books! ❤️‍🔥

Thank you @nodepression and @amosperrine for capturing the magic so beautifully and for including me among so many artists I love and admire. What an honor. ✨

And as Alice Wallace so perfectly sang it and Amos so perfectly states… I’m sure we all will remember last Saturday for a long, long time! ✨❤️‍🔥✨

One of my favorite ways to close out Americanafest is by working the @mulekick_productions Rock n Roll Brunch. This year, the theme was Western Edge with a tribute to great music out of California over the years. Such a great team to work with💕

Well another year in like a lion and out like a…slightly more weathered lion? Thank you @americanafest for having me along, it was good times all around. @greasychickenreview Tom Petty night, @chestfeverofficial Last Waltz matinee, the boys and I backing up @john_surge for 3 performances, and capped by our own 2 shows at @blackoakartists @deeslounge615 party and AMA showcase at @the5spotnashville. That was fun! Also had my heart fully recalibrated by @benmonttench at the @analognashville and several others as well (looking at you @_laney_jones and the spirits). See you next time. 👋
