Michael Stipe, Joe Scarborough, and Doug Emhoff chillin in Athens at Wuxtry Records in front of the local section. Cool to see my album Repertoire poking out behind Stipe.

My good friend and colleague, Ava Mendoza, has a new stunner out on Palilalia! Grip it.

Fingerpicker life.

Recent acquisition. Can’t wait to read this Shirley Collins account.

Barney Kessel and Luiz Bonfa: today we celebrate the birthdays of two great guitarists. Listen to Mr. Bonfa & Yours Truly here: youtube.com/watch?v=t-Vz_s… Happy birthday, gentlemen! Photos courtesy of the Oklahoma History Center and Comet Atomic.

Check out this gorgeous advertisement in The Wire Magazine for the label I’m on. Mendoza! Orcutt! Corsano! Repertoire! Palilalia! Don’t sleep on these jams. 🔥 Let’s pick it up now!

Independent arts magazines are the only good thing because they are the only space where even the advertisements rule.

"Repertoire" is maybe the most dizzying studio record I've heard from a truly solo artist. Buy it for "Journey into Satchidananda" alone, but also all the rest of it rules too.

Monk transcending.

Hot ticket in Durham tonight. I’m playing at Duke Coffeehouse with Chuck Johnson and Dunums. 8pm

Let me heal you. 🎸

A moment from my duo with John Fernandes last night at ATHICA: Athens Institute for Contemporary Art.

I said “from the campfire to the concert hall” in a guitar lesson earlier today and still think it’s hilarious and stupid.

Repertoire - The TABs: The Corrections. I made this video to address a few things I noticed after publication of my TABs book. Thank you so much to everyone who has purchased the book or the PDF, and who has been listening to the album. youtu.be/r4FtlXEmCeI?si…

In October 2004, Ahleuchatistas’ 2nd album, “The Same and the Other”, was released. That was 20 years ago! Time sure does fly! I’ve made the 2008 Tzadik re-issue CD available for mail order purchase on my Bandcamp for a limited time. shaneparish.bandcamp.com/album/the-same…

incredible free jazz/prog rock record with righteous radical politics. one the records that fueled my righteous fury during the iraq war.

I need to scratch a rock and roll itch.

When 3 of the 4 members of Bill Orcutt's guitar quartet release solo albums in 2024 & they are arguably the three best guitar records of 2024 (& the one person who hasn't released a solo guitar record in 2024 is Bill, one of my favorite gtr players ever), it sure is something.

corey & i took Shane Parish’s arrangement of journey in satchidananda and blew it tf out to 40+min
