Unexpected endings

Goodbyes of all kinds as Eric and I pack up to move. I've included a bit of an old live track from a legendary show at the Mercury Lounge in NYC circa...1994 (?) put together by dear recently departed Jeremy Tepper and his band the World Famous Blue Jays - giving it my best blues rock shouting to keep up with what must've been about ten musicians onstage. Everyone chose or wrote a song in keeping with the theme Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms, glad I have this memento from a fun era...ps there is no organ (but a helluva lot of saxophone)

Thanks for listening!

A visit to the county of Shropshire and a 70th birthday makes me think about the past, long ago and more recent.

Eric's pal Dave loves Neil; a cool record store encounter...includes an old favorite.

A momentous occasion for me, a brand new single and video ON A LABEL (Tapete). Nerd alert! The nuts and bolts of Dylan In Dubuque- song, recording and video. What inspired it, how it got made and out into the world.

Hear the demo turn into the record before your eyes or ears! Thanks for listening, you can find the full Dylan In Dubuque single here: https://orcd.co/amyrigby

A drive back home from an NYC gig...feeling that nostalgia you get when you know you're leaving.

O'Jays, Nazareth, and a little Wreckless Eric in the background.

Getting photos taken to publicize a new album, it's almost like being in showbiz. Looking forward to my release date in August 2024, and looking back at an album photo shoot for The Sugar Tree (a fan on Bandcamp calls the cover "one of the worst I've ever seen"! I agree that's one awful font but Jim Herrington's photo is quite striking)
Nashville in the year 2000, with an excerpt from  Girl To Country work in progress and a snippet of music from that album.

A catalogue of everyday moments as Eric and I prepare to sell this house and move on.

Suggested tag for this piece on WordPress was...Jesus?  Does kinda feel like our fate is in the hands of the gods.

Affection for this place we've called home for almost thirteen years.

Stuck a rough demo of a song -in-progress on the end: Too Damn Late To Call It A Day

Letting go...it's a process.

Cleaning up to try and sell this house there's a lot to sift through

Saw Lenny Kaye play his great song The Things You Leave Behind last week but I cover a different song here, one I heard for the first time in a long time as I sorted through my old CDs.

Thanks for listening!

January, radio and IG posts from the 30A Songwriter Fest get me thinking about David Olney .
