Greetings friends!
Great week so far! We played a show last night here in Nashville with Leroy Powell & the Messengers and Wayne Mills. Awesome night of music. Tomorrow will take us to Guntersville, AL.
BUT, what we're here for of course is last weeked. We were in Jackson, TN, at the Downtown Tavern, and Florence, AL, at On the Rocks. Two fantastic shows if I might say so myself. Some of the funniest things though, of course, happened off the stage while on the road (and in gas stations...). I just happened to have my camera handy for some of them...
I found this sweet hat in my closet last week. So I've been rockin' it lately...
Here's a shot from Jackson at the Downtown Tavern...
And the next night at On the Rocks in Florence...
Of course of course, thank you all so very much for stopping by here and seein' what we're getting into. It's a crazy life we live, but I wouldn't have it any other way...
And now, what I believe is the best Episode of Truth thus far... Episode #22:
GRACIAS!

Howdy howdy!
Been a couple of weeks since I've caught up with you. We've been running around like crazy, playing everywhere we can. I also made a trip to Texas to be with my family for my grandfather's memorial service. It was great to see everyone!
This past weekend, our travels took us back to Oxford, MS, and my beautiful hometown of Fort Payne, AL. Here's a shot I snapped while driving across Alabama at 5:30 a.m....
On the way back to Nashville, we stopped off in Rising Fawn, GA, and put on another puppet show for the people in the Pilot truck stop.... I don't think they enjoyed it nearly as much as we did...
This coming weekend we'll be in Jackson, TN, and Florence, AL! Can't wait! Make sure and keep a close watch on www.jacobstiefel.com/tour-dates to stay up-to-date on where we'll be. See you down the road somewhere!!
And now.... Episode of Truth #21

Happy Hump Day! I'm about to head to the gym, but I wanted to get this up and going before I leave.
We were back down at the Southern Ground Social Club this past Friday night. That's the bar Zac Brown owns in the quaint little town of Senoia, GA. It's a beautiful place if you ever get a chance to visit. And definitely stop into the SGSC for some great food, and if we're there, some great Southern Music...
On the way down, Mark's glasses broke... which brought me to the conclusion I think Bromer would make a great pirate... I don't know why, I just do.
After staying the night with a friend, the next day we had to get up and going and get back to Nashville to play at Benchmark on 2nd Avenue downtown that night. But we had to stop for some Brexican, which is the Bromer term for Mexican Breakfast... yeah I know. So here we are enjoying some authentic Mexican quisine... at Taco Bell.
So we're back in Nashville of course. This weekend we hit the road to Knoxville, TN, on Friday night and Florence, AL, Saturday night. Going to be a great weekend of music! Hope to see you all somewhere out there!!!
Have a spectacular day! Here's Episode of Truth #19!!

Been a crazy couple of weeks since I posted last! Sorry time got away from me. It was mostly the government's fault of course, with taxes and all... Plus it's always safe to just blame the government right?
The weekend of March 22-23, we travelled to the far land of Puryear, TN, and played the 641 Club... always an interesting night there...
The next night we were in Louisville, KY, at a cool little bar called the Hideaway. Ashley Evans snagged this picture at some point in the night when I wasn't paying much attention to her...
The following weekend we were off so I got to go home to Alabama for Easter and spend time with my family, which is always a blessing... Here's me and the parents on Easter Sunday...
Other than the weekends, we've been writing for the upcoming EP, doing a lot of planning and brainstorming on new merch ideas, video ideas, etc. and booking of course... Thank all of you for your input!! I've also been working on being more active with my Twitter and Instagram, and I've started using this new thing called Vine. So if you're on any of those, Follow me! @jacobstiefel
If you're going to be around Nashville April 10, me and the boys will be playing an all original showcase with Ricky Young and Connor Christian at 12th & Porter. Would love to see a good crowd of Truth-followers out there!
Thanks once again for checking up on us. Here's EPISODE #18! Plus we're about to upload some additional cover song video footage as well after this one finishes. Ok, I'm done rambling now. Here ya go!!

Hola! Beautiful day here in Nashville, Tennessee. Hope you're all having a great day, whenever it is you stumble across this. Last weekend, we got to take our brand new trailer on her first road trip, to Florence, Alabama. Saturday night, we did our part in spreading the Truth once again... Great show!
(NEW TRAILER)
That afternoon, we stopped by a nice little flea market and variety store in Elkmont, Alabama...
So our plan was to find a mascott for the van dash board who also might join us on stage... After looking around for a while here, we narrowed it down to two options...
Cherokee Jim or Clifford... And the winner...
Welcome to the family Cliff. So that night, we proceeded to rock the house in Florence, then pack up and head back to Nashville. Last night, we did our thing at Crossroads on Broadway. This coming weekend, we'll be in Puryear, TN, and Louisville, KY... Come hang out if you're around!!
And of course, I didn't forget... here's the video for this week... Episode #17!
Thank y'all for watching!! Love you all.

Whew! It's been a busy week! Lots of good stuff happenin' though... And we're heading to Florence Alabama tomorrow. I do love Alabama.
Last weekend, we were in Nashville. We got a last minute call to go downtown and play a Saturday night 10-2 shift at a bar called Benchmark, on 2nd Avenue. Great bar, if you're ever in town and are lookin' for somewhere. The show was great! It's been a long time since I played downtown Nashville on a weekend...
This week has been full of gigs, writing, workin' out at the gym, and our weekly poker game on Tuesday nights... This week's episode has clips from 2 different poker nights... and some definite characters... here's a pic from last week's.
We've added some new dates in the "Shows" section, by the way! Go check 'em out. Hope everyone has an awesome weekend! Well I won't keep you any longer... here's this week's episode:
