Hello friends! I think I am at the point in my life where these "one sheets" just become more like journal entries... Are you ready? Here we go: Lost And Lovin' It is your invitation to set sail with me and my friends as we chart a course for adventure across the seas of music! Although I am always busy playing and recording, this is the first full length of original new (non-"children's") tunes since 2011's I Bleed Rock & Roll (did you know that I Bleed got FOUR OUT OF FIVE STARS IN ROLLING STONE Italy?). Teamed up once again with producer Denny Muller (Frustraters), I returned to the Static Room, now located in Green Day's Jingletown complex.... This record is frolicking and fun, serious and steadfast. There are lots of nautical and wanderlust-filled references ("The Anchor Song," "Latitude 38," and "Latitude 58," which is a tribute to Seattle), TWO songs called "Lost And Lovin(g) It," waltzes, rockers, electric, acoustic, it is a non-stop adventure... Musical guests are bounteous, as Jimmy Boom (Phenomenauts) plays and sometimes pummels the drums, Dan Pottest (MU330, plus tons of others) adds guitar, as does Rusty Miller (Jackpot, CAKE). Dog Party, fresh off tour with Green Day, adds vocals to two songs, one of which is a Shocking Blue song, "Inkpot," backed by L.A.'s Prima Donna! Keyboards, from piano to organ to synth, are provided by Anton Barbeau, David Houston, and Static (Epoxies, NOFX). Friends, I have been making records for over 30 years now, and I don't think I am going away, so just join me on my musical adventures! This year has seen me get amazing tours with AJJ, Streetlight Manifesto, and more, playing FEST in Florida, and all over the heartland as well! The adventure never ends, and I thank you for it! I guess I may always be "Lost And Lovin' It!"
