Spring Update

It's been a while since we did one of these updates, so I thought I'd share a bit of what we've been up to lately. It's been a quiet Spring so far, after our first scheduled tour in Japan (we were originally going to be doing a month of shows there in April this year) got canceled.

365 Days of a Paper Airplane - in Japan

You may have heard us play this song (365 days of a paper airplane) back in Hummingbird Session #14.

We learned the song for our 2019 tour in Japan, and while we were there we were lucky enough to get to play at a Japanese school. To my surprise, all of the kids started to sing along on this song and it created a beautiful moment that I will remember for a long time to come.

Hurricane Ridge (Official Music Video)

Here is the official music for Hurricane Ridge from Dragonfly. The video was so much fun to make and quite the adventure. Filmed in the beautiful North Cascades in Washington State, we were up before dawn in order to get the sun coming up over the mountains. The rugged, wild landscape was the perfect fit for this tune.

Collaboration: Paddy’s Green Shamrock Shores

A little throwback video on this January afternoon...
This is a song we recorded in collaboration with House of Hamill, Mickey Spain, and members of Runa, Emish, Socks In The Frying Pan and Poor Man's Gambit. The purpose of this collaboration is to raise money for the Mr. Holland's Opus Foundation, a charity which donates high-quality musical instruments to deserving, under-funded music programs, and provides an array of support services to school districts. We know what the ability to play music has done for us all personally, and we believe that every child, regardless of socio-economic status, should be afforded the same opportunity.
