Hickory Slims at Village Pub and YumEast!
Since March Hickory Slims has played a couple of shows that I never got around to posting about. Things have been so busy for us outside of music – Eric and Willie each bought a house, so they’ve been going crazy moving in and getting things settled in their respective homes. Josh and I were…

Hickory Slims at the Family Wash
Well, Hickory Slims has officially lost its second first show virginity!

A couple of weeks ago I had the opportunity to play at Puckett’s in Leiper’s Fork, TN for the second time! It’s my favorite venue I’ve played…probably ever…and we had a killer time that Saturday night. The first time we played there it was just unbearably hot but the second time it was much cooler…

Singing at Puckett’s in Leipers Fork, TN
Happy Monday everyone! I’m still feeling a little worn out from the weekend (it started on Thursday night with the midnight showing of Harry Potter, which I’ll post about soon, then Friday night shooting a rehearsal dinner and Saturday night shooting a wedding, then last night I played a show with my dad and other…
