Hey White Owl Red fans, friends and family. I've got new music for you: LOST FIRE 

Hey White Owl Red fans, friends and family. I've got new music for you. oh yeah. This time I've teamed up with my super talented guitar picking, fun lovin' Chilean cousin Tomás McManus (Olor a Cañón, McManus Experience). We've created something something wild, and new: Lost Fire! Listen to what happens when Chilean indie rock and West Coast USA indie/americana music collides after some IPAs and gummies and countless BBQs! Our debut LOST FIRE album is debuts June 21st. Just in time for summer fun! We've grilled up 11 new songs for you. We are sorting out the final details for the launch. Till then, we shot up a space monkey in a trial launch (TOMMY THE BEACH MONKEY). That way he won't be able to keep pulling out the patch cords from the mixing console. Seems he ended up touching down on a beach somewhere... rumor has it he's the coolest monkey on the beach, somewhere lost in the pacific. Till then... Enjoy the Music!

Single Running Blind drops today - Full album out Thursday! 

In anticipation of my new album coming out this Thursday, I dropped the title track today. It's a road trip song about friendship, adventure and life in a van with nowhere to be... nothing but time and the open road.
