Spent the weekend with two of my closest friends making music at Blackbird Studio in Nashville. Amazing experience. Truly a magical place.

Feel Good Fridays: Vacation

DateFriday, July 25, 2014 at 2:27PM

Sorry that I've been away for a week. Just had an incredible and much needed getaway with the fam. We hit Forecastle Festival in Louisville, KY and saw the likes of Beck, Jack White, Outkast, Sharon Jones & The Dap Kings, Dwight Yoakam, Jenny Lewis, The Replacements and Spoon. So good. Then we headed to Nashville and got to tour Blackbird Studios (amazing). Then I spoke to the students at Blackbird Academy (thanks to my friend Mark Rubel for both of those). We hit up the Third Man Record Store as well as a ton of other really cool spots. Then we headed northwest to St. Louis. Museums, shopping, the zoo. Good times. I'm back home long enought to get a haircut, do some laundry and go to a wedding - then off to L.A. for another recording session at Warner Brothers. Pfew.
