Videos from April 9 show

No Alibi


New Start


Daily Electric


Summer's Only Daughter


Just a few from last Thursday's show. Believe it or not, that was the first time Hopeful Monster has ever played live with a string section... I will definitely be doing more shows like this! Thank you Randy and Monica.

I played with Larry, tonight's guest, in a country cover band called Fat Horses almost ten years ago. We got together this week to rehearse and it was magic. I hadn't seen him since our last show but it's like no time had passed at all, it sounded so great. I love country music. Hope you can make it!
