The Song of the Day #SOTD is “A Little Piece of Me” from my 2012 album Birds of Paradox. We’ve pulled this one out of the archives for our recent Dylan shows and it seems to fit in nicely. Give it a listen! 📡📻 open.spotify.com/track/4Lkib5...

It’s the 60th anniversary of @TheBeatles at Shea Stadium. A few years ago I wrote about that epic moment, and how the band invented the stadium tour for @Esquire with @ringostarrmusic @mashupmartin @JulianLennon and more.

“Take my picture with the Jeff Slate twins.” 😂

Every trip to London ends with @PaulWellerHQ buying you breakfast and the exchange of each other’s vinyl, right? 🎯

See you soon, Blighty! It’s been a gas.
