Sooooo, I am having a hard time focusing on the newsletter this week, as I have been working from the road and just passed through the absolutely gorgeous, humbling Redwood forest… just, wow! Nothing like staring up at a swath of mammoth trees dating back thousands of years to remind us to enjoy both the little and the large things in life that pop up along the journey.

One fun thing popping up on my radar back home is the upcoming Cut Worms show at The Basement East on April 21st. It’s that warm, slightly offbeat indie-folk sound that somehow feels both nostalgic and new at the same time, and The Beast is about as good as it gets for catching a show like that up close. If that kind of night sounds like your speed, go ahead and put yourself in the mix; this feels like an easy win.*
