Joined by my buddy Heather Styka who I first met at NERFA sharing songs in the Pie and Whiskey room.  We shared the stage as finalists in Kerrville TX this summer.  Heather is a great spirit and her songs are packed with great lines that come like a flurry of jabs.  Heather dances where others fear to tread. Beneath “sweet, soulful vocals” (Portland Press Herald) and “nimble fingerpicked guitar” (Dispatch Magazine) lie narratives of vulnerability, strength, and wanderlust. A Kerrville New Folk Finalist and award-winning writer with a #3 album on the FOLK-DJ charts, this young troubadour has performed for over a decade, released four full-length albums, and toured from coast to coast.

I'll be hosting an acoustic stage and featuring one of my favorite Pittsburgh artists, Heather Kropf.  RANT is a two day two night music festival in the neighborhood of Lawrenceville Pittsburgh.  Hundreds of bands and multiple venues and stages will be going full blast.  

In the round with Robby Hech & Friends

I'm the featured artist for Songwriters at Play, a weekly series held in several locations up the coast of California that features local and national songwriters.
