April Tour Canceled

I was really looking to forward to having a packed April full of shows and I guess… now we’re all just wide open and at home. I’m sorry to say that these shows have all been canceled or postponed, my agent Tyler and I are working hard at moving them all into the summer, so stay tuned, I’ll still get to all of these places down the road.

As for myself? I’m still working my part-time job at the tile company, for now, and when I’m home I’m just going to cook and bake tasty things, write some new songs, play board games with my roommates, and read a whole lot. This situation is entirely unexpected, but we all have to take the best from it. Remember that you can still go for walks outside, as long as you stay six feet away from people, and that you still need sun and exercise. I’ll have some new songs coming out during this time, and so many others will, too, so keep your ears open for new music to help you through!

As with everyone else, the cancellation of these shows does have an impact, and if you feel so inclined you can buy digital downloads, CDs, and vinyl records at http://johnstatz.bandcamp.com. But I know that there are people who are and will be hurting worse than me, let’s all just help each other out, friends, family, neighbors, and strangers, wherever we are able.

Stay safe, try to stay healthy, and love to all of you.

John
