Happy Passover! This song is variously titled “I Can’t Stay Away”, “I Don’t Want to Die in Egyptland” or just “Egyptland.” I’m basing my version of Josh White’s recording from 1933.
To say I was honored to sing at the home going celebration of Roscoe Robinson does not do it justice. It’s something I will remember for the rest of my life. Thank you to George W. Stewart for organizing such a beautiful service and to the great Rickie Mckinnie of Blind Boys of Alabama for joining me. Love and prayers for the family!

The homegoing service for Roscoe Robinson will be this Friday, March 6th at Hopewell Missionary Baptist in Birmingham. I’ll be there singing with Rickie Mckinnie of The Blind Boys.

2016 huh? Ok, I’ll bite. Dropped by major label, paid homage to Zappa, signed by indie label, recorded album with all star crew, world toured, sang on the radio about jamon, taught a class about Gospel that became a thing, wife was (and is) a babe. Anything else? Oh yeah, bought an apartment somehow and brought a baby into this world with aforementioned babe. Solid year, no notes.
