Hello from the Love Boat. Not to be too loosey goosey about it, but I set sail for the Caribbean this past Saturday with Delbert McClinton on his 26th Annual Sandy Beaches Cruise. Performances have flowed from the likes of The Mavericks, Shinyribs, Band Of Heathens, Marcia Ball, Mingo Fishtrap, Bonnie Bishop, The McCrary Sisters, and more, so you know I am among friends. And there are so many cool folks in the audience that have come to bask in the sunshine and in the love of the music. I recommend it highly, it’s a great winter break. Check out 2021!

Seth Walker just wrapped up his set on the pool deck, and Jimmy Hall, of Wet Willie fame, oh - and who plays with Jeff Beck too, said “You have to lean in a little on Seth.” Seth does draw you in, with his oboe like voice and sweet syncopation. I always feel the water in his music, and here on the boat that is especially apropos. See if you don’t agree, on the tune “No More Will I,” filmed during our last private Music Fog sessions in Nashville.
