Comin' Home to San Antone Video Release!

* WEDNESDAY OCTOBER 28TH - NEW VIDEO RELEASE!

This video has been a long time coming. For me it's a big achievement in patience and determination. The idea came almost a decade ago when I randomly drove by a church in seemingly the middle of nowhere. I made a mental note of that church and last year I Googled, "Church in the middle of nowhere Texas." It popped up just outside of Balmorhea, a town I'd visited many times since that initial encounter. You see, I grew up idolizing Slash and his iconic solo in the video for "November Rain" was something that never got old when it came on MTV as a kid. I purchased a drone last Christmas specifically to attempt to emulate that sequence. Additionally, I knew this would be the third video in my surrealist-astronaut trilogy so to keep that theme going, I decided to recreate other scenes from "November Rain," replacing Axl Rose and Stephanie Seymour with an astronaut and cowgirl as they wed in a honky tonk. To top it off the opening sequence uses a 2-D cardboard spaceship inspired by Yo Gabba Gabba and my elementary school principal worked with her dance class at The Academy of Learning in Retirement (ALIR) to customize a line dance for the song and video. The video starsHaylee Grace, Nathan Felix, Brian Caron, Wesley Freeland, Charlotte Reed, Vivian Hartz and friends (full list in the YouTube info section). And if you'd like to check out the first two videos in the trilogy, check out Out to Dance and Take Me Back to Odessa.

* THURSDAY OCTOBER 22ND 2026 - NEW SINGLE NEXT WEEK

I am more than thrilled to release one of my favorite songs, Comin' Home to San Antone, off my upcoming album, Texas Born Texas Bred. The song is simple and straight forward but what I love most about it, is playing it live. Crowds that have never heard it begin singing the chorus halfway through the song. Once after a show in Jersey, someone in the crowd asked me if we were a cover band after playing that song because he thought it was a famous song! I hope next week, you open up the song on your favorite streaming service and enjoy the beautiful contributions made by so many talented musicians.

La Gran Esperanza

* MONDAY SEPTEMBER 28TH 2027 - LA GRAN ESPERANZA

This performance at the Blaffer is 6-years in the making! The first conversations I had were in late 2019 and my first walk-through was in March 2020. So many of the people that kept this project on life support have mostly moved on, but it was enough to get it into production, FINALLY. I'm thrilled to be working with Sarah & Melissa at the Cynthia Wood Mitchell Center. They have been the catalysts for getting us close to the finish line. I start rehearsals this week and it'll be the first time I work with all these lovely singers; Sarah Dyer-Jones (Mezzo), Joshua Thomas (Baritone), Julia Starr (Soprano) and Jonatán Reyes (Tenor). 

A bit about the oper - La Gran Esperanza, sung in Spanish is a short opera exploring themes of hope, cultural identity, and the search for belonging. The story loosely inspired by former MLB player, Freddie Benavidez, who inspired and gave hope to a generation of Hispanic youth searching for belonging and cultural identity in the border town of Laredo Texas.

ROUTE 66 OPERA

* FRIDAY AUGUST 19TH 2026 - ROUTE 66 OPERA

My first opera of the 2026 season will be in Albuquerque at the Albuquerque Museum of Art. This is really exciting for me because back in 2022 I did my first immersive opera outside of Texas at the ABQ Museum for my opera, La Malinche Traitor | Savior. Not only did my Malinche opera become one of my most performed operas, after performing in Albuquerque museums all over the country started commissioning me to produce my immersive works. I'm close to over 20 different museum performances!
