on the road w/ a new setlist

This coming week I hit the road with the band (Sam - Rhodes/noise & Andre - drums) for a handful of shows over the next 2 weeks. With my upcoming album, BOXES & HUMAN FOG nearly out, the band has learned several new (never before played-live) tracks and I'm absolutely STOKED to play them for you guys, and solicit your response.

We're still working out the setlist, and with 1 more rehearsal before we hit the road, we'll iron it out fully. But for now, here's what we're looking at:

Urgency
War on War
Doubt Brings Hope
Wicked Love
Blinded My Eyes
Olive May I
Saints Today
The River Child

Now it's time to make playlists and get podcasts ready for the long drives back and forth, across the midwest!

January 9 - Jerry's Bait Shop - Lenexa, KS - 8PM
January 10 - Jerry's Bait Shop - Lee's Summit, MO - 8PM
January 14 - The Underground Lounge - Chicago, IL - 9PM
January 15 - Benefit Concert - St. Louis, MO - 8PM
January 19 - The Riot Room - Kansas City, MO - 9PM

Peace and I hope you'll all make it out to a show!!!

this weekend = shows...

This weekend I head out on the road for a couple Kansas City shows. Its been WAY TOO LONG since i've played KC, so I'm pretty excited to get back to my old stomping grounds!

Saturday night we're playing an outdoor festival in St. Joseph (Felix Street Square) at 7PM. Here's some press from this week in St. Joe news:

"...Ross Christopher, a violinist and singer/songwriter who
will be a bit of an unorthodox element fronting his acoustic rock trio.
“He’s got all these crazy pedals for the electric violin.
He does Jimi Hendrix solos behind his neck,”

On Monday night, we'll be in Lee's Summit, playing Jerry's Bait Shop at 9PM.

I keep saying "we" because I'm playing these shows full-band! I'm playing electric and acoustic guitars, and violin. My buddy Sam Wade is playing a wild assortment of keys/rhodes/etc. And drummer Andre Cataldo will be laying down the mean beats.

I really hope to see you either tomorrow or Monday!

Have a stellar weekend,
Ross
