Hello Canada (Mar 26, 2013)

I am going to be traveling across country mid-April. This isn’t a tour but I am switching coasts for a short while and am looking forward to experiencing our great country once again. Even though it’s not tour-related I will have my guitar, some CDs, and new tunes with me and I’d love to share them all. If you’d like to host a show, at your local pub, cafe, or even your house, please get in touch – it’d be great to see you!

♥ Jon, M+T

Another long trip, another video made with my spare time during it.

Travellin' Song 2:35

Travellin' Song

So, I'm currently on a tour around Europe via train and on some of these long journeys, my mind gets to wandering... then my hands do... and before you know it, I shot and edited a video on the trip from Vienna, Austria, to Leipzig, Germany. So, here it is - the "official" music video for Travellin' Song! (Kind of fitting eh?) http://www.rockandroots.com http://www.themountainsandthetrees.com
