WHAT'S HAPPENING

🌸 May Melodies & New Beginnings
There’s just something about May—the warmer days, longer nights, and that feeling that summer is right around the corner. It’s the perfect time for live music, open windows, and soaking up every moment. We’re excited to kick off the season with some great shows and even more great memories ahead.
💍 Celebrating 5 Years
May is also a special month for us personally—it marks mine and Adrienne’s 5th wedding anniversary. It’s hard to believe how fast time has flown, and we’re so grateful for every memory, every song, and every mile traveled together. Here’s to celebrating love, partnership, and many more years ahead.

🎸 422 West Live This Month
We’ve got some fun dates lined up to start the month strong! 422 West will be hitting the stage at Rockin’ on the Roost on May 2nd in Brush Creek, TN—an all-day music festival you won’t want to miss. Then we’ll be heading to Boro Bourbon & Brews in Murfreesboro on May 23rd for another great night of music. Be sure to check out the full schedule in the tab above to catch a show near you!

🏡 A Special Trip North
On a personal note, we’ve got an exciting family milestone this month—our daughter bought a house! We’ll be traveling up to Michigan to see her new place and spend some quality time together. Nothing better than celebrating big moments like these with the people you love.

☀️ Summer Shows on the Horizon
We’re gearing up for a fun-filled summer packed with 422 West shows. From local stages to new venues, it’s shaping up to be a busy and exciting season. We can’t wait to see familiar faces and meet some new ones along the way.

🎶 Songwriting & Songwriter Rounds
Behind the scenes, we’ve been working on some new songs and keeping the creative juices flowing. You can also catch us playing songwriter rounds with friends at Maxwell House and The Commodore—some of our favorite spots to share music in a more intimate setting.

❤️ Music for Seniors
A special shoutout to Music for Seniors, a nonprofit organization that holds a very special place in my heart. I have the honor of performing in nursing homes and assisted living communities, and truly, these are some of my favorite gigs. There’s nothing like bringing smiles, sparking memories, and sharing the joy of music with such incredible people.

💐 Moms, May & Music
As we celebrate the month of May, we’re also celebrating all the amazing moms out there. Whether it’s through a song, a hug, or a simple “thank you,” take time to show some love and appreciation. Here’s to a month full of music, meaningful moments, and memories in the making.
See you out there 🎶

Please check out the BuzzSlayer review of my album (link above).
"This album boasts some great songwriting that has touches of Southern Soul to it but also keeps to this folk-rock undertone and as you listen through the songs you begin to become attached to the record."
