Virginia weekend!
Hey Virginia! We’re gonna come play some shows this weekend. We’ll be at Mountainside Cafe in Roanoke on Saturday, February 16th and at Poe’s Pub in Richmond on Sunday, the 17th. Both shows are free. Let’s hang out.
Back home!
First let me say thank you so much to everyone who gave us a place to crash, a meal to eat, a conversation to have, or a song to sing. This was a great run and I’m finding myself feeling exhausted and inspired and very, very grateful. I have pretty amazing friends all around the country. I’m a lucky dude.
We’re taking a week off for Thanksgiving and all that, then Jon and I have a few weekend runs to finish out the year, starting November 30th in Gainesville with our pals Greenland is Melting and O! Geography. All the shows are listed on the tour page.
Time for sleep!
The new record is now on Spotify, iTunes, etc…
So check that out if it’s your thing. Of course, I’d much prefer you to come to a show and get that sexy vinyl from me, starting tonight in Brooklyn at Freddy’s Bar. But if, alas, you are unable to do so, you can get the new album on iTunes by clicking here:
Or just type “Billy Wallace and the Virginia Blues” into Spotify and add us to a playlist or something. Tour is going well so far. It’s great to see so many folks I haven’t got to hang out with in so long. Check out the rest of the dates on the tour page and come out to a show if you can. Kelley will do a crab dance for you if you do.
Tour starts today!
Yep. This evening I’ll be at the Woodlands Tavern in Columbus. Show starts EARLY tonight - 6 p.m. Here are all the dates. Let me know if you have any questions about the shows. I’m looking forward to seeing a lot of folks I haven’t seen in a long time.

The new album is all mastered and sent off. It’s going to be called “Tucumcari, New Mexico and Other Songs” and it’s gonna be coming out on Mind Over Matter Records.
