Hometown Blues

I’m heading back to the homeland next week- first to rugged and raw New Hampshire where I was born, then to the hustle and bustle of New York City where I cut my teeth on concrete. I’m very much looking forward to dipping in some ponds like the one above (photo cred goes to my brother-by-familia: Tod Stevenson) and jumping into my favorite waterfall. As far as I’m concerned, Summer is far from over. I’ve had little stints of vacation sprinkled throughout the past few months, a couple days here, a few more there… but nothing like a proper Frenchman’s break from work. I’ll be DJ-ing again on the rooftop of the James Hotel with my man DJ Cato (who provided a couple of today’s selections) and our special guest Uproot Andy on Aug 31st for all my NYC peeps. Until then, here’s a fresh batch of good ones to keep you bouncing.
