This is just a brief note to say hello in the new year and acknowledge that OMG we somehow made it through 2025.
To say 2025 was a hell of a year would be an understatement and it brings to my mind the words of poet Adrienne Rich:
My heart is moved by all I cannot save:
so much has been destroyed.
I have to cast my lot with those
who age after age, perversely,
with no extraordinary power,
reconstitute the world.
The good news about 2025 is that we found our voice; we found each other. I felt this energy and determination at every concert I attended whether I was onstage or in the house. We are pushing back. Together we can right this ship!
I am in the process of putting together my tour dates for 2026. Â I have returned to living in the San Francisco Bay area so righteous routing is a bit of a challenge. The year begins in Berkeley, CA with a show at the Backroom with my gal pal Lisa Koch. In April my brother from another mother Joe Jencks and I are once again taking our unique blend of hope and harmony on the road to the Midwest, the Northwest in June, Â and then another round of Midwest shows in November. I have solo shows in Dallas, TX, Galveston, TX, and Austin, TX so it looks like a swing through the Southwest is definitely in the cards. Please keep checking my Concerts page as I will add shows as details become available.
