Episode 211: Sheboygan/ a Phone Call with Erin Ivey

hello friends of nature! i hope you are all doing well out there in podcast land. i'm doing well. i saw some friends play last night. it was a good time. i wanted to thank everyone who listened to the last episode (episode 210). i didn't think anyone would listen to it because the show was so different than what we normally do here.... boy, was i wrong! i will try to seize opportunities like that when they arise and bring you some different kinds of shows. i liked doing it. go back and listen. 

on this episode, i call former guest erin ivey and check-in with her about her new album. she recorded it live in front of an audience with the tosca string quartet. she's releasing an album/dvd combo and she started a kickstarter campaign to fund it's manufacturing and release.
