Dirty Sundays......RIP

Well it's been about two weeks now since Dan O'Brien's decided to discontinue Dirty Sundays. I wanna say thanks to all the fans who came out and supported the event, as well as the amazing talented artists that played. For those fans who hadn't made it out yet, I'm sorry you missed it. It was a blast for everyone involved. But no worries. I think this was a great thing that can keep going. So keep your eyes peeled because I'll be working something out real soon. Thanks again.

Until next time,
B

We got a new puppy! Her name is Jo Jo. She's a chocolate lab (mostly), about 12 weeks old, and is such a loving, smart, and fun dog. Here she is with our dachshund, Skittle. They are slowly becoming good buddies..

This Sunday, May 24, at Dan O'Briens in OKC, I will be playing acoustic with Travis Kidd, and Clint Osmus. The show will start at 9:30 and the cover is $5. We will play until around 12:30, so if you're looking for something to do this Sunday, Come out to Dan O'Brien's located at 2747 Memorial Rd. between May and Penn. Tell your friends, and spread the word because every Sunday night at Dan O'Brien's I will be bringing in the best in up and coming Red Dirt/Texas artists as well as many of your longtime favorites.

Also, this Wednesday, May 27, I will be playing a solo acoustic show at The Wormy Dog in OKC. Once again the show will start around 9:30 and the cover is $7. Tickets can be purchased online here. If you wanna hear more of my stuff than you get on Sunday nights, come out and enjoy my solo show and not to mention the amazing atmosphere that is the Wormy Dog.

So I played the first of many Dirty Sundays at Dan O'Briens in OKC last night. The crowd was great (even with the storm) and it was nice to get all the requests. It was fun playing with my good friends Evan Felker from The Turnpike Troubadours, & Clint Osmus of Clint Osmus and the Bushmills. If you missed last night, don't worry, we will be doing it every Sunday at Dan O'Brien's 2747 W. Memorial Rd in OKC. Cover is $5 and next week we'll have Aron Holt from Mama Sweet and Chad Sullins. Come on out and enjoy some Red Dirt acoustic music.

One of my Grandfather's bands

So my Aunt just recently gave me a picture of my Grandfather, Kenneth Jackson, with one of his bands from the 30's. He's the guy with the fiddle. I thought I would post it. I never got to know him because he passed away in April 1969, but I have a few pics and my Dad has some recordings Kenneth and his band made. My Grandmother has told me several stories of all the shows, barn dances and events she would go to with him, and I can't help but think how our musical lives are so similar. I just wonder sometimes what it would be like to sit down and talk about those days and maybe play a few songs together.

Anyways, I hope you enjoy a bit of my past. I'm gonna try and get those recordings transferred to a digital format. We'll see.


UPDATE:
The name of this band was Kenneth Jackson and the Prairie Night Owls. Just found out this info!
