MARCH upcoming gigs and projects

Last entry I thought that Sunday, February 23, at Public Brewhouse was my last February date, but I was mistaken and wanted to get an update out immediately.

  • On Friday, February 28, Tiny House of Funk plays at Sand-Reckoner Tasting Room, 510 N 7th Ave, Unit 170, Tucson, from 6-9 PM. This hidden gem is a great place to play!

March 2020 Performance Dates

  • Friday, March 13, Tiny House of Funk plays at historic Steam Pump Ranch, 10901 N. Oracle Road, Oro Valley, AZ, from 6:30-9:00 PM. It’s a free show, so come on out!
  • On Thursday, March 19, the Strait Country Band performs Tucson’s premier George Strait tribute show at Rincon Country West RV Resort, 4555 S Mission Rd, Tucson, AZ, from 7-9 PM. For ticket info, please contact the resort.
  • On Sunday, March 22, Tiny House of Funk plays at our monthly Funky Fourth Sunday at Public Brewhouse, 209 N. Hoff Ave., Tucson, from 5-7 PM. It’s early, so ideal on a “school night” for you to come out and party with us!
Max Parallax makes the first live appearance of 2020 at Thunder Canyon Brewstillery, March 26.
  • On Thursday and Friday, March 26 and 27, you will have TWO CHANCES to see Max Parallax, Tucson’s only—as far as we know—post-progressive pop punk outfit. We don’t play out much, so now is a great opportunity for you to see us play songs from our forthcoming debut EP, as well as a slew of other original songs, and maybe even a few covers. Thursday we will be at Thunder Canyon Brewstillery, 220 E. Broadway, in Downtown Tucson. Things get going at 7:00 PM and go till approximately 10:00. Habitual Resonance opens the show. On Friday we will be at Saint Charles Tavern, 1632 S. 4th Avenue in South Tucson. Things get going there at 8:00, and we are sharing the stage with hard-rock trio Then When. We look forward to seeing you out there!
  • On Tuesday night, March 31, the Strait Country Band is playing somewhere in the PHOENIX METRO AREA. I will post again once I have more details

Upcoming projects and live dates

It’s been a year and a half since I launched this web site and it has become obvious I am not using a major communication tool available to me: this blog.

As my official opener here—or at least a renewal of sorts—I’ll bring you some upcoming live dates as well as updates on some in-progress recording projects.

Live Dates:

  • I’ll be playing with Tiny House of Funk, led by the incredible and unstoppable Connie Brannock TODAY (February 8) at Ore House Hilltop Tavern in Oracle, Arizona, at 7:00pm, and again on THURSDAY, February 13, 6-7:30pm at the Oro Valley Marketplace, Tangerine Rd. and Oracle Rd., in front of the movie theater.
  • Tiny House of Funk continues its Funky Fourth Sunday tradition at Public Brewhouse (Hoff Ave. & 9th St.) on Sunday, February 23, 5-7pm. These Sundays get a little crazy so I suggest you come a little early to get a seat. Seriously.

That’s it live for February. I’ll post more about March or any added February dates in a later post.

Recording Projects:

  • Max Parallax’s debut EP is still under construction—but making progress. We hope to release by the end of March.
  • In the meantime, you can check out our preview singles on Apple Music and on Spotify. You can also view the video for “Amoebas” here.

Check back in a week or so for more updates. Thank you!
