For the 4th time this year, I had another "festival" offer rescinded when I told them I don't have a band, so sharing this as example of how you accommodate a solo acoustic act not on a label or working with an agent: PUT ME AT THE BOTTOM.

Oh thank you. I'll "see you" next month!! 🤑

I just logged on here for the first time in a few weeks, but I am still running so...🏃💓🏃💓

Bill wore a green shirt in Ireland. I wore a blue shirt bc I'm from Blueland.

And played on Elyse Weinberg's Greasepaint Smile lp.

Everything in here is true.

Just seeing this post-tour since the only app on my phone is for a flashlight... thank you!!!!

Great article, & hope this encourages many to explore the Worried Songs catalog. There's not many labels like them anymore. Ah remember the days when decisions were made w ears & not algorithms... how quaint...

Cardiac Country keeps chuggin' along! Thank you for the sweet review!

A very appropriate pun headline considering Nic Cage was my surgeon. Thx for the excellent review.

I'm hitting the road next month & I'm taking a pedal steeler & singer with me. JDD trio will be visiting these fine towns. Greg Cartwright & Styrofoam Winos & Matt Rowan will show us up on select dates. Hope to see you. Please tell your friends.

I love this music site, so extra happy to talk about myself here. Thank you, Tonearm! 🏃💓🔪👻🎩💧(emojis for most songs included here)

Thanks, Ben! & when I read this on Friday, I saw Pug (on the list above me) was playing 4 miles from my house that same night. No one plays within even 30 miles of my house!! So I went to a rural strip mall bar & watch him slay-George Jones, Billy Joe Shaver, his own tunes. All killer!

Very happy to be inside this nice article that says nice things about my music. Thank you!

It is 100% coincidence that I scheduled this the same weekend as the Austin Record Show. I would never intentionally detour my life & drive 2 hours to buy records from some of the best dealers in the world.

If you're in Austin, TX, or know someone who is, I'll be playing a Cardiac Country record release/happy hour show this Saturday from 5-7 at the Aristocrat Lounge. I drew a cute flyer too.

Target audience.

You earned it! Thanks for always listening up north, DA!

I've listened to it allot, too! Thank you, James!! 💓See you soon-ish.

Thank you, Mr. Doom & Gloom.

Cardiac Country entered the world today. I hope you enjoy it.

Thank you, Ross! 💓

Truth bomb!! 💓

Oh yeah!!! Thank you, CE!!

I love this review of Cardiac Country. Thank you, R.O.!

CROCUS 4 EVER

Rest in Peace, David Thomas who also walked through Ghost Towns. ( from his The Book of Hieroglyphs)

Tonight at midnight, Cardiac Country, my 6th solo album will be set free. It features BJ Cole on pedal steel. It will be my last album that will not require me to use software to remove the sound of my mechanical valve ticking...

Cardiac Country comes out in 3 days. The response so far has been... heartwarming.

Awww, this is very sweet!! Cardiac County secedes next Friday. Plant your flag & tell your friends.🤠

Thursday around 8:30 or so, I'll be playing part of a concert from the 1980s in New Haven by the incredible Michael Hurley. Come join me from 7 to 10 AM for more music on 89,5 FM WPKN.org @wpkn.bsky.social

Oh look, a new record by @jerrydaviddecicca.bsky.social featuring pedal steel legend BJ Cole. The singles have been 🔥... looking forward to hearing the whole LP

'It’s incredible to think how one person can be so singular to so many people.' @jerrydaviddecicca.bsky.social pays tribute to folk musician & artist Michael Hurley, who died last week aged 83 www.caughtbytheriver.net/2025/04/mich...

If the reports are true about his death, I hope you don't mind me sharing my piece on the last time I got to see Michael Hurley play live www.wweek.com/music/concer...

Save me a seat next to you & Tom T., my friend. "Knowing" you for 25 years was not long enough.

My next new song comes out 4/4. It's about drinking wine on my couch while listening to records by dead songwriters. I could write that song every Saturday night.

Come see me on my birthday & stick around for Bill!

Highlight of my gigs this week was helping Colin Newman from Wire w a parking spot while wearing a vintage Steve Forbert tee shirt.

I've got a gig at Hole in the Wall with some great people tomorrow at 3pm & a house show with Jo Alice & Adam Ostrar that night (3/13). Hit me up for address on IG. I've only got two apps and the other is for a flashlight.

2nd single from Cardiac Country is out everywhere today. A spooky lament on trust & fear ft. pedal steel of BJ Cole. Dig it here: jerrydaviddecicca.bandcamp.com/album/cardia...

The Larry Jon Wilson (Heartworn Highways, etc.) album I produced with Jeb Loy Nichols is Drag City's item of the day. (I just happened to see this, so maybe it was yesterday & will go away when someone in Chicago wakes up.) www.dragcity.com/products/lar...

We've been longtime fans of Phil Pearlman's short-lived band Relatively Clean Rivers, and their sole 1976 LP, so it was a true joy to participate in this collection of covers c/o @ravensingstheblues.bsky.social. Proceeds go toward LA wildfire relief ravensingstheblues.bandcamp.com/album/hello-...

Will Stratton :: Points of Origin aquariumdrunkard.com/2025/03/04/w... Will Stratton ditches his usual delicacy and heads deep into fire country on his eighth album, delivering a quietly ambitious and wholly convincing set of songs about conflagrations, California and the steady erosions of time.

Please note: this listener received an advance copy bc her husband has given up 29 days of his life to care for the rat-cha creature featured in verse 2 of song 6. All other orders will ship mid-April. 🐕‍🦺
