For the seventh episode in the continuing video series, Backyard Biergarten, in which we drink a beer and play a song in a backyard, we travel to Gruene River Inn in beautiful New Braunfels, Texas.
In this very special INDOOR edition of Backyard Biergarten (it was too damn windy and cold outside on this February day), me and my friend Lisa Garner talk about how we both believe that playing music can help veterans when they return from deployment.
Lisa supports Warrior Cry Music Project (http://www.warriorcry.org/) an organization that provides instruments and music instruction to veterans, and I have led song and guitar workshops through Soldier Songs & Voices (http://soldiersongsandvoices.org/ssv/).
Also! I play a new song that Kelley Mickwee and I wrote called “Beautiful Accidents.”
Featured in the Backyard Biergarten this episode: Austin Beerworks Fire Eagle IPA brewed in Austin, Texas.
