Happy Holidays!! 

What a fun year!  Lots of touring, new faces and places! 

Johnny Lee is still kickin' down the doors with some new faces.  I've rolled off for the holiday season to enjoy the family.  He's put together another great group of guys and the show is tight!  So, take time to catch them if they're in your neck of the woods!  Get your Urban Cowboy on! 

Bobby Pinson just released another great group of songs!  Love his writing!  Pop out to the link above and snag a copy.  Some really heart-felt material!

As noted, I'm off the road for the holiday season and bouncing around KC.  If you need a player feel free to drop a line.  I'm itchin' to make some noise - writin'/recordin'/giggin'...it's all good!!

Here's wishing you all the best this holiday season and a blissful '07!

Watch the Schedule for added dates, things are always changing!

Seeing a lot of folks this summer! 

Johnny Lee has been keeping a pretty full schedule this summer - visiting a lot of the country (NV, NM, AZ, CO, KS, OK, IL, KY, TX, MO, AR, LA, IL, MI, TN, IN, NC).  Thanks to everyone who's come out and helped with the shows - sound, merch, roadies, and other groups who've shared the stage!  It's been a fun run!

Remember, Johnny and the Urban Cowboy Band are recording a live album in Waxahachie, TX on August 26th at the Texas Theatre!  Come out and get your hollar on! 

Bobby Pinson and the guys have had a couple dates this summer as well!  Fan Fare was a hoot and so was the Jefferson City Jaycee's County Fair.  Hopefully pics will be posted soon so keep an eye on the site!

Watch the Schedule for added dates, things are always changing!

Another quick update. 

In addition to Johnny Lee, I'll be working some dates with Bobby Pinson starting late May.  Bobby's a phenomenal songwriter (visit the link and give him a listen)!  Should be a great time!

So, watch the Schedule for added dates.

Well, Spring has finally sprung!

Had a wonderful time in Montreal, Quebec, Canada late April!  Ate too much amazing food, got in a lot of walking and sight-seeing, and drank plenty of good coffee!  Can't wait to head back up north - beautiful country with some very, very nice folks!

Noe Palma and company had a blast at the Beaumont 4/28.  Was an all Missouri country jam - Cowboy Junkies, Spur (killer band - check 'em out), Gary Lincoln, and Noe Palma.  One of the best times at the Beaumont to date - the end of night all band jam was a hoot!

ALERT:  Received a call from TX and will be heading back out on the road with Johnny Lee starting May 5th.  Really looking forward to it - Johnny's a fun/ornery gent and I've worked with most of the band in other projects so it should be a lot of fun!  Get to revisit some of my favorite places and faces!

More dates coming up with Noe Palma, Tim Pardee, and Lost in the Zoo so keep an eye on the Schedule.

Update: April 20, 2006

I know, I know....a little remiss of my update duties.  But since you arrive nickel in hand, I'll dispense with the project details.

The Sexy Accident CD, TOURISM, has been released and is now available online at CD Baby!  We've also been blessed with some great press...replete with adverbs like "nerdy", "geeky", "quirky", "tight", "rhythmic", "melodic".  Have I whet your interest?  Peaked your curiosity?  Click here to read both reviews!!

Cory Ryan and the guys shot a video a few weeks back for "Loren".  Don't know where the things are with the editing process but rest assured an update will be posted once the video hits Time Warner's KC On Demand (Channel 113).  Keep an eye on the schedule for future shows at the Grand Emporium.

Noe Palma and company have some upcoming shows starting late April at The Beaumont, w/Gretchen Wilson at Verizon Amphitheatre, and again at Verizon for the Q104 Yallapolooza!  Details coming soon!!

Helped out the fine folks of Renegade Rail for a couple shows in March.  Great folks and a fun time...actually, a crazy time in Sedalia - wow!  Included an opening slot for Kevin Fowler, one of the artists from the TX circuit.  If you have the opportunity, catch a RR show for no other reason than to watch the drummer solo during a beer bong.

And, last but certainly not least, had some fun with Cameron and Trevor from American Royal.  Trevor will be flying the L.A. coop and roosting here in KC over the summer - so watch for some dates to pop up in the coming months.

Happy New Year!!

Wow!!  Can you believe another year has come and gone?  I'm still stuck somewhere in July!  Not sure where the rest of the year went.

That said, here's wishing you all the best in 2006!

Cory Ryan and the guys took top honors in the Bands Across Kansas City showcase.  That designation awarded Cory $1000, a video shoot, additional coverage, and a future show at the Beaumont!   A BIG "THANKS!!!" to all fans - past and present - that took the time to jump online and vote (especially those "Womackians" and the Tejas crew!!).  We all want to thank the sponsors and participants for a great event - one of the best organized and executed multi-band shows I've ever participated in.  Nicely done!  Keep an eye on the schedule for future shows at the Grand Emporium.

Noe Palma and company had a great time opening for Blue County at the Beaumont NYE.  Lots of folks and great music to ring in the new year.  We're planning to start some songwriting - so watch the calendar for upcoming dates and check out some new material!

The Sexy Accident had a great show at the Brick on the 6th!  The CD is in process and should be available in the near future!  Look for more new music from Kates and the crew.  More details soon!!

And, for those of you heading to LA for the NAMM show, be sure to stop by and say hello at the Samson Technologies booth - Spirit Music Products will be sharing space with them this year and I'll be there talking shop and demo'ing their wares.
