RSL, BigOldBigOne, Happy Holidays!

Just last night, we were the ‘Music Video Rewind’ on one of Boston’s best blogs

RYAN’S SMASHING LIFE

My song, ‘I’m Like a Train, My Lord,’ was called a, “beautiful SB original song.” - click above to see the video blog performance I recorded with the awesome, Big Old Big One music video blog!

*HAPPY HOLIDAYS* to everyone who has made this year one of the most special years of my life. Folks I’ve met at shows, on the radio, online… who’ve inspired me to write songs, put together a show, helped spread the word, or who’ve bought CDs for themselves or their loved ones… I couldn’t have done it without each and every one of you!

Germany, Wood Stove, WHS, & Holidays!

JUST got back from my tour of Germany & it was unreal! Sold-out shows & packed houses in Frankfurt, Cologne & Hamburg was a dream … amazing crowds and wonderful people! Can’t wait to make it back there in 2012!

<– that’s me!

A featured interview on the
Wood Stove House Concerts
Podcast has just been released! You can listen to my interview from 5/11 HERE!

Last weekend, I performed on the stage of my home-town highschool which was built in 1938, and is about to be torn down! It was a magical night, and a video was made to commemorate the evening, featuring my song, ‘When I Was New.’

You can watch it below!

Artist of the Year/ Tri-state Indie/ Noise Cover/ MassMic

We had so much fun on our southern tour, sold out of our hand-made jewelry, presented many unsuspecting new friends with ‘Crazy Pills,’ and I even won ‘Artist of the Year‘ at the My Rural Radio Fall Fest III! I got an awesome LED light-changing trophy that took about 1 hour and 4 people to set up once we returned from tour…! At least it didn’t break in our new tour Prius, James.

Tri-State Indie wrote about the festival, Sarah Blacker is a star.  Never heard of her?  Listen once and you will never forget her.  She received the MyRuralRadio Artist of the Year Award that night and played an achingly beautiful set.  She writes poignant songs that speak simply and honestly and wow, can she strum a guitar.” thanks guys!

Here are a couple of our pics from the tour. To see more, visit SB’s facebook page

Upon returning from tour, someone handed me a copy of Boston’s Music Magazine, the Noise, and showed me my photo on the cover! There’s really no better way to return home than this:

SB on the cover!

after being last month’s Big Shot! in the Noise too. Rita and Lolita from the noise said, “Each of the artists on the cover deserves to be dominating the page. These performers are already local stars.”

Thanks Noise Magazine!
