The guitarist and singer’s bands include the Tin Men, the Valparaiso Men’s Chorus, Kings of the Smalltime, and the Alex Band. One of New Orleans’ premier songwriters, he’s released two original solo albums, “Lucky One” and “Road Songs,” this year, in addition to “Into the Sky” with songwriter collective the Write Brothers. Recordings with his own Royal Fingerbowl, as well as projects like 007, the Tom Paines, Susan Cowsill, Luke Spurr Allen’s Happy Talk, Lynn Drury, and the Geraniums round out his resume. With such a busy schedule, it’s surprising that he still finds time to volunteer at the orphanage. Tonight he makes time to mentor the Troubled Men.

Topics include election relief, the twilight of the gods, an endgame strategy, the DA race, Alex Trebek RIP, a vaccine, a campus exodus, a job suggestion, childhood education, New Jersey mysteries, a reluctant New Orleanian, Chris Lee, Michael Ward & Reward, Glenn Hartman, Willie Green, Bourbon St. gigs, career options, recording singles, Washboard Chaz, Kelly Keller, the Circle Bar, Peter Holsapple, a solo residency, Keith Keller, Carlo Nuccio, the Austin Motel, Disney Tokyo, Cap’n Sandy, Daemon Shea’s last gig, and much more.
