Happy New Trio!!

January 19, 2020 by JGstott Leave a Comment

Happy 2020! I know we’re really into it now, but I’m just getting to writing this, so there you go. I’ve been playing out with a new trio starting last fall. It has been a really awesome experience for me- it’s great to have a band feel to what I’m doing after a few years … [Read more…]

New Video!

July 14, 2019 by JGstott Leave a Comment

We spent a lot of time in June staring at the windshield. That’s a lot of time to think, or not. Also, cellphones all have cameras on them now (in case you weren’t aware of that). So I was scrolling through all the pictures and video of our travels and I realized I had a … [Read more…]

Inching Towards Destiny?

July 6, 2019 by JGstott Leave a Comment

Whew- it’s hot, and I haven’t posted an update in forever! Winter was long, and we complained. Today it’s 90 degrees or more, and we are complaining. Apparently we just complain. Last night we had one heck of a hail storm while I was playing at Cannon Mine in Lafayette. Now my truck is dented. … [Read more…]

Texas bound and Fall Updates.

September 23, 2018 by JGstott Leave a Comment

Happy fall!!! At least technically. It’s still pretty hot here today. But it is the start of fall. I have no idea what that means. I’m headed to Texas this week, to the Southwest Regional Folk Alliance Conference (or SWRFA, if you’re feeling hip). It should be three days of not sleeping, playing music, hanging … [Read more…]

Who are your heroes?

August 26, 2018 by JGstott Leave a Comment

If Darrell Scott played guitar in your band at a club show on a Saturday night, everyone who heard it would swear he was the best guitar player they had ever heard. If he sang at that gig, they would swear he was the best singer they had ever heard. If he played his songs, … [Read more…]

Myths and Legends

July 15, 2018 by JGstott Leave a Comment

I grew up with Paul Bunyan and Babe the Blue Ox. If you aren’t from Minnesota we’ll forgive you for not knowing what that is. Click the link. Later on, I heard the John Henry story, probably in the Johnny Cash version, but there are so many versions. The John Henry story is an archetypal American … [Read more…]
