Happy New Year!!
* * *
We had an absolutely incandescent 2018
and 2019 is already manifesting
some of the wildest dreams we confided in each other from the very beginning!
We have another huge project to announce!
We've just confirmed that we will be designing and fabricating
an interactive exhibit based on the five senses
for the Discovery Center,
a children's science museum in Ocala, FL!
* * * * *
We've also just launched
the arts education facet of our company,
so Jessica will be presenting poetry workshops
and Stephen will perform
"Professor Pig's Marvelous Music Show"
at public libraries including Fayetteville, AR this summer!
* * * * *
We had a great meeting with the
Curator of Education at the Alligator Farm
earlier this week where we got to show off
the scale model of the mural we illustrated.
The design is almost complete and we'll be painting
by the end of the month!! How exciting is that?!?
* * * * *
This month, we'll also be starting rehearsals and set construction for
which runs March 8th - 24th at Flagler Playhouse.
* * * * *
Also, don't forget our next album
Midnight Gardener
is almost complete and we'll be announcing the official release date soon!
Here's a preview of the amazing cover art done by our good friend, Aaron Marable.

We've booked a few upcoming tours
to support the new album
(and because of our insatiable wanderlust, of course):
We'll take a mini-tour to the Tampa Bay area in February with dates at
Cage Brewing on the 15th,
the Peace, Love & Blueberries festival
at The Blueberry Patch - Florida's Longest Surviving Artist Retreat
on Saturday the 16th,
on the 17th!
* * *
We'll embark on an Ozark Odyssey in June
including gigs at The Bleu Cafe in Valdosta, GA
Little Village in Panama City, FL
Jammin' Java in Fayetteville, AR
and Neutral Ground Coffee House in New Orleans!
* * *
In August, we'll take another Appalachian Mosey
through Valdosta, GA (back at the Bleu Cafe)
the Terrapin Beer Co. (!!!) in Athens, GA
Rainer's Cafe + Bar in the unbelievably beautiful Greenville, SC
and back at the Fly-In Cafe in Huntington, WV.
Looking back on 2018,
it was the perfect combination of challenges and rewards
to prime us for our upcoming adventures:
We played over 200 gigs
in 25 cities
across 8 states,
completed 4 tours,
painted and dressed 7 sets,
directed a show,
taught 160 students,
confirmed extra-terrestrial life,
found the Holy Grail,
wrote Don Quixote,
and dreamed infinite dreams.
* * *
We pushed ourselves to the limit
and we'll push our limits even further this year!
As ever, we want to thank you for believing in us!
We hope to see you on the road! Rock on!
Peace and love,
Stephen and Jessica
