July 2019: Strawberry, Cicadas, and Summer
Long days, short nights, hot sun, cold water. Stiff hands, mosquito bites, cicadas, and summer.
I’m on the road in July, and in the studio in August. June was a wild ride. This super summer edition will be told in pictures still and moving.

The Serenade music and gourmet food rafting trip on the Rogue River in Oregon. Always a joy to collaborate with my future brother Austin Quattlebaum (banjo & songs), and my sister. Check out Serenade's upcoming events.
All star lineup the last few weeks: Cuchulain Kelly, Natalie Akers, and Lawson White.
A house concert in Grants Pass to support Rogue Climate and spread the word to fight the hugely destructive proposed Jordan Cove LNG pipeline project.
Fox Recommends
Showers – a spotify playlist by yours truly full of the stuff I've been diging.
Tom Robbins – I can't get enough of Tom. Each of his books bridges hilarious and profound and every ridiculous sentence, whether talking about scrotum parachuting or human history, brings me joy.
Stay Free: The Story of the Clash – A spotify original podcast narrated by Chuck D (the guy from Public Enemy...this podcast is worth it for his voice alone) about the crazy history of The Clash. Eats up the miles on the road.
North Fork of the Payette, ID dreaming.
PS.
“Time passed. Art came off the walls and became rituals. Ritual became religion. Religion spawned science. Science led to big business. And big business, if it continues on its present, mindless trajectory, could land those lucky enough to survive its ultimate legacy back into caves again.” – Tom Robbins, Villa Incognito
