A little trip with Lost Dog street band to a beautiful tree in Madison, TN near Nashville. It was the backyard of our mutual friend, Dan from Black Matter Mastering. They played a little tune and broke our hearts like always. You can stream Lost Dog’s tunes on Spotify (https://open.spotify.com/artist/6tkrc…) […]
A compilation of footage we shot out in Wyoming and South Dakota. The train line is the Union Pacific’s overland. The portion taped is between Cheyenne and Green River, Wyoming. This is the first transcontinental railroad in the history of mankind. Ben plays a favorite Steve Earle song in Cheyenne, […]
After this video at their friend’s house in Old Hickory outside of Nashville, TN, Lost Dog street band parted ways for a bit. Benjamin went on to record his solo project, and Ashley to South Dakota to unwind for a bit. These were uncertain times indeed, but all is well […]
In light of Benjamin’s new direction musically, we decided to try something different for this recording. The words say it all.

(update: 3/26/24)Wow, how far we have come since this recording, all of us. Sierra is now world famous, in some small subset of Americana music lovers. Millions of views, who woulda thunk it? Last time I saw her, I was making a few tour stops with Jeremie Albino, the Canadian […]
The White Buffalo stopped by the house to play a new song during Americana Fest week in Nashville. He left here straight to the airport to go home to his family. A pleasant gentleman. Name of song: “If I Lost My Eyes” Album: Darkest Darks, Lightest Lights Release Date: October […]
I know everyone was clamoring for another sharing of Sierra and her unique jingle-jangle sound. Well, when I was in New Orleans, I went to a hazy late night old-time show. Accordions blared on a stage lit only by bonfire and shrouded by a giant treehouse, like something out a […]
In a very special edition here, we find Matt Heckler (formerly of Deep Chatham) teaming up with Benjamin Tod (of Lost Dog street band) to play a tune of Matt’s on the porch. Not just any porch, however. This is the house where Guy Clark used to live, and later […]
Y’all know I only bring the realness to the table. Today we’re breaking bread with Greg Farley (& his badass band), whom you might recognize as the fiddle player from the Felice Brothers. Farley is real as they come, enthusiastic and all smiles, no pretentiousness, no bullshit. I’d noticed the […]
I introduced Ben and Hayden some time ago, and they’ve been fast friends ever since. Kindred spirits even, both prone to trouble and writing great songs about it. Both were in town for the recording of Hayden’s album we put together, and we decided to sit down and talk shop. […]
