Got a genuine midweek summer evening hang at Gene’s on Wednesday.
Fretland is coming through town en route to the great northeast and I’ll be playing too.
Music starts round 8 and there’s never a cover charge!

Just wanted to say that I’m playing Gene’s on 7/9 with Hillary Fretland. She’s from Nashville by way of the Pacific Northwest. I’ll have Tucker on bass and Jeremy on keys. My buddy Dusty took this dreamy ass photo.
