Slaid Cleaves

don't forget about cincinnati and the great southgate house revival! Love to see you again!

Mmm. I could use some 5-way chili.

When are you coming back to the great western city Calgary Alberta

As soon as I get an invitation. Maybe you cold drop my name into the suggestion box at the festival.

Hi ...hoping to get to The Greystones show in October ...been a fan for YEARS and seen number of times! Was wondering if there will any CDs of the new album for sale? Still a touchy/feely person with merchandise!
Thanks Cheryl (Sheffield)

Indeed, we will have CDs and LPs at The Greystones on 4 October. (The CD is dead. Long live the CD).

Big fans! Last saw you at Cabin Concerts in Vermont in 2016. On the upcoming tour, no NYC dates? We have enjoyed seeing you at the Rubin Museum but I totally think you would love City Winery! Please? :) Thanks!

City Winery won't return our calls. Maybe if you (and 100 friends) put my name in the suggestion box . . .

Thanks!

Slaid, we would live to have you for a house concert. We seat 55 and usually suggest a $20 donation per seat. Could definitely fill the place for you. Karen has approached us twice, but we we traveling to India the first time and Vietnam the second. Portland, Doverlaff House Concerts. Hope to hear from you.

Please contact Laren directly: slaidcleavesbooking@gmail.com
Thanks!

Any plans to tour in Southern California - especially Orange County? You would find an enthusiastic and appreciative audience at The Coach House - San Juan Capistrano. Really cool club, been there 30+ years. Ask Joe Ely, John Hiatt, Todd Snider, Chris Hillman, and many others!

Indeed, we are planning a west coast tour for Feb/March. Will check out that lead. Thanks!

I know you're originally from Maine, but yopu seem to speak Texas Truth. Please......keep doing what you're doing. Beautiful. I'll defend your right to say what you say :]

Hmm. Not sure what "Texas Truth" is - a truer truth, perhaps? Anyway, thanks for having my back.

Hey Slaid! No question here, just listened to all of your albums from first to last and wanted to say thank you. You are one of only a handful of artists who consistently writes music that touches the soul and expresses what it means to be a working man, common man, thinking man in this country. You have added so much to American music.
I have seen you several times when you were on the west coast... always wonderful shows. Your ability to connect with your audience is unsurpassed. I have seen hundreds of live shows and the only artist that would be your equal in an intimate venue was the late B.B. King.

Thank you so much.

Adam in Seattle

Wow, Adam, you may be the first (only) to have tackled that task. Thanks so much for writing. I appreciate the kind words.

Slaid, This is Sergio (Spanish guy you meet in july in Salt, NJ). Finally I have my tickets for London and I will be there on both shows, afternoon and evening. See you there!! By the way, amazing "Ghost in the car radio" Great album!

Sergio! You are a true fan. We will try to come to Spain next time. See you soon!

Hey, Slaid, thanks for giving my post a look, I appreciate that. I'll update it to give credit to those you mentioned, my apologies for overlooking that. Only a real solid dude would remember to make sure others shine as well.
Out of curiosity, when'll shirts be available again, I'd really dig one?
"... the job I set out to do." Yep, you sure did.
Peace, hope to see you when your in Cincinnati or close some day.

Right on, Bill. Shirts will be avail again when we get home from the fall tour in mid November. I imagine we'll get back to Southgate House sometime in 2018. Hope to see you then,
Slaid
