RIP Tom Feher

Hello all-

Tom Feher, the man who co-wrote songs for the Left Banke's first album, and then later wrote much of the Left Banke's second album, as well as the lone album from the Michael Brown-produced Montage, passed away yesterday. He died as he lived, climbing a mountain that many others would not have done. Tom was a true character, with a brain fully on fire, all of the time. As George Cameron said about Tom, "He's a brother." He was their brother and friend, and every bit the equal of what Michael Brown had previously brought to the band.

Safe travels, Tom, wherever your next adventure takes you. Thank you.

My New Shows Are Now Open

My new show, When The Legends Come To Town, is now open at the Knight Gallery at Spirit Square. Over 100 photos of legendary musicians playing in Charlotte over the last 22 years. Most of these have never been exhibited before, or were printed just for this show. This exhibit is open until the end of October, and will be having its official opening on August 23rd from 6 to 9pm, as part of the uptown gallery crawl.

Also, my companion show, Your Face Sings It All, is open at Petra's for just three more weeks. Petra's is holding a show closing party on August 27th from 7pm to 11pm. I'm also available for tours of both ahows, and photos from both shows are for sale. 

Hope to see you soon at both shows, spread the word, and see you on the road.

Maya Beth Atkins CD Release Party On Sunday

Around this time last year, I happened to catch Maya Beth Atkins at the Pizza Peel. Her mom told me that they trying to figure out how to get Maya's debut album put together. I said, "Give me a day, and I'll put this together." Because, like many of you, I wanted to see this album exist. On Sunday, through the efforts of myself, Chris Garges, Shawn Lynch, Mike Kenerley, Dan Hood, Jason Atkins and Maya Beth, you can see and hear that record. Sooner or later, you hope to create the things that you like to see happen, and my thanks to everyone for being a part of this journey. See you on Sunday, and see you on the road.

The Past Week

Thursday to Monday, visit family in Pennsylvania, and explore Natural Bridge, Gettysburg, Blue Ridge Parkway, and more. Yesterday and more, photograph one event, Josh Ritter at the McGlohon Theater, Bret Saberhagen at the Charlotte Knights game, and one event at SOCO Gallery. More soon about my new show (now open) at Petra's, and my big new show at Spirit Square, which opens next week. Did I get here at the right time? I sure hope so. See you on the road.
