N A S H V I L L E MUSIC CITY

WE MADE IT TO NASHVILLE!

10 hours later....we drove through the mid-western country, ate at LAMBERTS where they throw rolls...drove some more...laughed..joked...drove...slept..drank too much water...got pulled over...sped more..slowed down..ok.. you get it. HA. ROAD WARRIOR-esses we are becoming.

We made it last night to the fabulous music city without any battle scars.. although..this morning when we woke..we did have a small accident...before we even made it out of the driveway..called AAA..but

then THIS MAN showed up..magically lifted the car off the bricks that were suspending this car mid-air and we were successfully on our way to the ville of Nash city centrum. Hallelujah.  This is only the beginning...

STAX & SUN take the long road tour-day 1,2,3!




 STAX & SUN
HA! We are having a BALL.  We started off at Derailed Saloon, with a kickoff show with special guests the infamous Jesse O on stand up bass and Jimmy B on drums...  We left for the 505 and stayed with our awesome friend Allen in Albuquerque with a 4 am arrival! (thank you for the made out couch beds!)

Cait in the 5th with the pups.
FARMISH RIDES ARE FUNNNN!








..we made it with phones, keys, and selves by 9:15 on the road headed straight for Oologah, OK for a last minute show booked through our Oklahomie friend Brandon at the DAM SALOON. Awesome right? Except for the fact that we just happened to forget about the time forward that would occur while traveling Eastward for 11 hours straight....(which was awesome ps) owell.


we made it and were welcomed by quite the collection of guests and had a fun night! We even were on the Bar Bulletin marked on HWY 88 as "SAXS and SONS" HAHAH. it was perfect.  Thank you Rhonda for your hospitality!  We are here in OK for the next couple days..playing in Tulsa tonight at the Crystal Pistol and tomorrow at Cherry St Coffee CO, you can check www.staxandsun.com  for details :)

we are totally SET up here in an amazing place of Talala OK, in an amazing fifth wheel on amazing property with Oklahomies Brandon and brother Justin, whom we were carted around this morning in a rad-mobile through the humid green flatlands and lakes of the mid-west.  Hallelujah for southern hospitality..We are having a BLAST.  Stay tuned for more...look for all videos on our Stax and Sun facebook page, and like us, we appreciate the support!

LOVE US!
Stax & Sun
More crazy Lumberjill vids coming soon.

Oh and ps for those inquiring...we do not yet (unfortunately) have recordings available of Cait and Ash together, we are working on it! 17 more days to play!

STAX AND SUN WEB GOES LIVE APRIL 25!

STAY TUNED FOR US!

We will be live (fingers crossed) April 25 for our Farewell Departure Show at Derailed Wednesday April 25.  Stax and Sun will be headed out on a brave 20 day tour Nashville bound! Dates posted soon!

LOVE. stax

stax here...postin' some "LumberJill Living" love!

ay. stax here.

sometimes LumberJills need to get organized, especially when going on tour.  i am leaving for the front range with Hello Dollface this weekend, albuquerque and Santa Fe for shows the following, then Stax and Sun is Southbound for 20 days! this is why stax♥ has decided to be so diligent and clean the box.   (box= stax's 12x12 studio behind her mothers house of course)

let me just say-
 leopard tights, sparkly bandeaus, and hangers oh my.

how 'bout some storage solutions? this box has absolutely zero storage so stax decides to makeshift and get clean. the box is actually a fully functional touring-friendly space. In the last year, little staxy graduated college and became a big girl... (NOT!haha). well..technically graduated, but still have a LOT of growing up to go.. i actually had 3 job to job transitions..leading to ultimate unemployment, car-lessness, moved 7 times, and got rid of the X(_namegoeshere). rather than keeping my title "unemployed" i transitioned to a full-time title "musician" and realized that there was a lot to these transitions and I was ultimately preparing myself for the touring lifestyle. This means= little possessions..   theres just.... many clothing items. :D

so here's some coverage: organization stations.
end result=
road-ready jill stax
