Today is NO KINGS DAY. Here's a new song (available for free on Bandcamp) that speaks to our need to protect the principles of our Democracy against the would-be dictator who is trying to usurp them.

Hi Colorado Friends. I'll be back in Denver this weekend, and will be playing a house concert in the Central Park neighborhood on Sunday, March 9th at 7:00pm. There's a few seats left.

If you're interested in coming, please email: [email protected]

After some rigorous science and methodical experimentation, Maizy and I determined that dry ice is -- and forgive me for getting technical here -- AWESOME AS F*CK!

Feel free to peer review our work.

The best thing I've listened to in a long time. A @lexfridman long form podcast with two Anthropic team members: @DarioAmodei and @AmandaAskell (who works on AI alignment). Really provocative stuff on the state and vector of thoughtful AI development. https://t.co/ui3Ur9y2Iu

If you are the migratory sort, and flying to warmer regions over on Bluesky, here's a link to my newly created profile over there. Perhaps it will be a place of civility and sharing. Better yet if populated. https://t.co/ywwQa0o4xi

I'm coming to Ohio next weekend!  I'll be playing in Athens, OH and then in Jefferson, OH (just outside of Cleveland).  I hope to see all my swinger friends (swing•er, noun: likely voter residing in a swing state).

Reservations are available through my website calendar.

Here’s a live video from my living room of the song, No One Sings For The Four Of Clubs. As we're entering the home stretch of the next presidential election, I think this song is timely and apropo. I hope you'll share it with your peeps. Thanks! Link: https://t.co/uLudOawtBF

I continue to be saddened by the escalating conflict between the Israelis & Palestinians. Here's a video of my song "Canaan" that I recorded live in my living room yesterday. I hope it can breathe a little extra empathy into the situation. Link: https://t.co/ejWHHSTsAC

[Danny Schmidt @dannyschmidt]

@fxshaw Thanks for sharing, Frank. Hope you’re doing well.

[Danny Schmidt @dannyschmidt]

My new song Canaan is now available on Spotify. If you are interested in a compassionate take on the Israeli/Palestinian conflict, I hope you’ll check it out. https://t.co/SJx60Goty5

Hopefully this post doesn't overwhelm the Twitter servers with one of those left wing DDOS attacks . . . but here's my upcoming concerts for the next couple weeks. I hope to see you in MO, KS, or VA!

A new song available on Bandcamp: CANAAN

I attempted to write a song about the Israeli/Palestinian conflict that, standing in the gates of the Gaza, I could sing facing either direction, and the people behind me could feel I was singing for them.

NEW SONG: Dark Skies. Hi Friends, I just home-recorded a new song and put it up on Bandcamp for free (or pay what you want). There's some commentary along with it, up on the Bandcamp page. Thanks for giving a listen:

NEW SONG: No One Sings For The Four Of Clubs.

Listen & Download for free from Bandcamp. It's a song about grievance, and about the downstream consequences of not hearing each other when we disagree. Thanks for listening!
