Hello Shelk Fans.
So I’m going to be playing Sidewalk tomorrow for one last music show. This is my first music show in about a year so I know you should be jonesing for it. I’ll be accompanied by the venerable Flynn Barrison who you must know plays a fierce clarinet and melodica and has the sweetest tenor voice this side of the mighty Mississip’.
And then also as a huge treat, I’ll have two special guests: Siobhan O’Malley and Eliza Skinner. If you have followed my musical wanderings in New York you will know that each played a very special part in my musical life here. Siobhan and I first started braving open mikes in 2000 together. And then we began a whole summer of playing at the Orange Bear with mammoth sets booked back-to-back. And later, when Huck Slim started–Eliza was part of the first line-up singing and playing drums. It was very exciting. So I am of course very excited to have them back playing and singing with me tomorrow.
So you should check it out!

PS If you haven’t already you should check out Siobhan and Eliza who are great performers in their own right. Siobhan is a singer/songwriter with a fabulous new album out. And Eliza does pretty much everything–singing, stand-up, improv, musical improv, writing. It’s an embarrassment of riches really these three friends of mine.
