YES!

I have one last show of my Pacific Northwest tour before heading home to Austin and here's what's exciting about that:
Danny Schmidt is releasing "Instead the Forest Rose to Sing" on Red House Records.  And, I'm lucky enough to be opening his Texas release party shows.  I also get to sing with him during his performance, which makes me very very happy.  Danny's new record is beautiful (and I'm not just saying that cause I'm sweet on him....I'm saying it because it truly is one of the best records I've heard in a very long time).  So please be part of this celebration with us! Here's the show schedule:

Greg Brown, Natural Awakenings, etc....

Greg Brown & Carrie Elkin
 
Lot’s of fun stuff happening right now.  First off, supporting Greg Brown was such a special night for me.  He even took the time to listen to my set and sit with me after the show for some one-on-one time.

My music has been featured in a very cool ezine called Natural Awakenings.  The magazine is wonderful and thoughtful and all those things.  Please visit the site….it’s free…..and my music is playing when you open the magazine!  Thanks to the folks at Natural Awakenings for thinking of me for this months issue.  http://content.yudu.com/A11t9e/Feb2009/

I’m now preparing for the big International Folk Alliance Festival.  Will be touring with Aimee Bobruk (http://www.aimeebobruk.com) on the way up to the festival….have shows in Houston, Baton Rouge and New Orleans.  I’ll then be in Memphis for five days before heading to Knoxville and Nashville for a couple days.  Will then fly from Nashville to Portland and spend a week back out on the west coast.  YES!  OH, and I'm playing a VERY SPECIAL Valentines Day show with Sam Baker (http://www.sambakermusic.com)

Hope to see you soon!
