Thank you, Jay, for enlightening my morning. I’ve found songwriting to be a great way to find friends, as once in a while, a song I wrote touches someone and we start a conversation. Best to you as you journey north to celebrate Caroline! And I hope you take at least a little credit for the amazing human she is.

I have a friend who lives in NY and she has been doing Sondheim Unplugged. On Sunday she did Send in the Clowns. I was in tears.

Fantastic. All of it. Especially the cover. Still calling it Prairie Phone Companion. Sorry.

I have a copy of “Finishing The Hat” and my first reaction was also “Wow. Does any of this even apply to Nashville music? Maybe it should apply to Nashville music. Maybe I would be a better writer if I could make this apply to Nashville music!! I’m going to take myself to Sondheim School!!” But sadly Stephen is still languishing on the shelf…thank you for some fresh inspo 🙌
