Spring has finally come knocking. It’s been a long, cold ass winter, family. For a while there, I was broadcasting the livestream straight from my truck—it was the only way to stay warm when the heat gave out in this old building. It wasn’t always easy, but the Blues doesn't stop just because the temp drop.
But today? Today feels different. I’m back in the Blues Room, and it feels good to have my feet on solid ground. The signal is pretty strong, the air is getting warmer, and the spirits is right.
A Journey Since 2015
For the folks just joining the caravan, we’ve been at this a long time. This journey started back in 2015, broadcasting out of my grandmother’s old house and, of course, the van.
What you’re seeing now is Blue Room Number four. It’s the heart of the operation—the place where the band rehearsals go down and the magic gets captured. I’m hoping to get the whole band in here soon so you can see what we've been working on.
To the Faithful
I want to say a sincere thank you for your patience and your support. To everyone who stayed tuned in while I was out in the cold: I see you. You’re part of this journey just as much as I am.
Welcome to Fat Mule Country. Stick around... there’s a whole lot more Blues to come.
