Oklahoma, Kansas, and Paris

  Hope this blog finds you well. Our hearts go out to everyone who was affected by Ike. We are headed up to Stillwater, OK as I type this. It’s been a while since we played in Stillwater. The name of the club is the Copper Penny. Next, we drive to Manhattan, KS to Play a show with Kevin Fowler at the Longhorn Saloon. First time in the joint for the HB. Then we drive to Paris, TX for our last show of the weekend at Crosswire. Should be a good weekend of shows. I’ll let you know!!

Little shake up in the band, Stephen our drummer for over a year, is now attending law school at St. Mary’s in San Antonio. We are very fortunate to pick our new drummer, Mike Henretty. Mike has been in the Scene for quite awhile. He has played with Drew Womack, Jack Ingram, and most recently with Brandon Ryder. Mike brings tons of experience and awesome grove to the band. If you have the chance, walk up and welcome him into the band.

Mile by Mile continues to get over 1000 radio spins/week just in Texas. The next single, Put That Ring Back On Your Finger, will be released later this year. With such great success with MBM, Ring should move up the charts with lighting speed. Thank you for all the calls made to your local radio stations requesting MBM.

South Texas seems to like our New CD as well. We had close to 500 people at Schroeder Hall last weekend. That is the most people we have had in Victoria. Thanks to JR and Anne Hudson at Kicks 108 in Victoria for pumping up the show.
