Howdy folks,

summer's coming on and everything's going good over here.

We had a great time playing the Orange Blossom Special festival in Beverungen. It was great to see all German Americana-heads in one place and our show went over really well (see the reviews in the articles section). We got more shows lined up this summer - with the Johnny Cash-tribute band "Los Solitary Men", solo, and with the Gunslingers. So come on out to see us and say "hi".

"Hobo Dream" is receiving a lot of attention, radio airplay and wonderful reviews. Hey, for the first time in my life, I'm on the charts. Hobo Dream entered the Euro Americana chart at #8 this month. I'm in illustrious company with my buddy Jim Stringer ranking fifth and the great Slaid Cleaves on #9 (more at www.euroamericanachart.nl).

I'd also like to send y'all for making good use of the new website. We have almost doubled the average number of daily visitors. Keep checking back for updates and stay in touch, folks.

I'm looking forward to seeing y'all on our upcoming shows. And tell all your friends about "Hobo Dream".

Take care,
Markus
