Spring is here and it is a flurry of activity here in Carrie Clark & the Lonesome Lover land!  So much of a flurry that I'm starting to feel like the tazmanian devil from the bugs bunny cartoons whirling about amongst bookings, promotions, rehearsals and tour planning.  So in effort to keep this as short as possible, here's the compressed whirling exciting version with the longer slow motion version to follow....

Shows in Washington - Friday, April 6th Doe Bay Cafe on Orcas Island and Thursday, April 12th acoustic at George's Place in Kirkland

European Tour in Belgium, Germany and the Netherlands Tuesday, April 17th through Sunday May 20th - spread the word!

and now in slow motion......
