END OF SUMMER, END OF U.S. TOUR

Happy Autumn! I'm back in Seattle after a summer of touring the U.S. I've been touring solo, while the Aaron English Band unexpectedly took the summer off: our guitarist / music director, the amazing Patrick Strole, developed severe back problems that culminated in emergency surgery. He is on the mend. Please send your hopes and healing thoughts in Patrick's direction!
