Hello, All: I know it's been awhile. . . sorry about that! But I'm still here and going strong, and you can definitely always see what's going on with me as a musician on Facebook (see my personal page under "Rob DeFriese," and my performer's page under "Rob DeFriese Music"). So a lot is happening, this month like any other. The most exciting news is that "the end is near" regarding my band, Ant Farm's album release! It includes my "solo" material, and we're in the final stages of mixing/mastering. We'll be releasing the album this Fall, so keep an eye out! You'll be able to buy on CDBaby and Amazon, and we'll submit for streaming services as well, although you can stream my (and the band's) music and see full show calendars on our ReverbNation pages: www.reverbnation.com/robdefriese www.reverbnation.com/antfarm3 www.reverbnation.com/jcthejukerockers Here's where you can catch me (solo, acoustic), Ant Farm, and JC & The Rockers in August. (Don't forget -- JC is the guitarist/vocalist for Ant Farm, and I sing and play bass for JC & The Rockers, which is JC's blues/classic rock, mostly-cover band.) AUGUST DATES: Fri-Aug. 9th - JC & The Rockers @ Fibber Magee's (Chandler), 8 - 11:30pm Sat-Aug. 10th - JC & The Rockers @ The Handlebar Pub (Apache Junction), 7 - 10pm Fri-Aug. 16th - Rob DeFriese @ Winery 101 (Peoria), 5-7pm Fri-Aug. 23rd - JC & The Rockers @ The Handlebar Pub (Apache Junction), 7 - 10pm Sat-Aug. 24th - Rob DeFriese @ Winery 101 (Peoria), 5-7pm *Fri-Aug. 30th - Ant Farm @ Pho Cao (Scottsdale), 10-11pm* Sat-Aug. 31st - Rob DeFriese @ Vino di Sedona (Sedona), 3:30-6pm (* - Ant Farm's first show in many moons!) if you're going back to school, best of luck! And enjoy the rest of your summer, everybody! Much love, Rob For the first time as a musician I got a bit overwhelmed this year. I had a lot of bookings and some interviews (Radio and print) It was wonderful. However, it was still overwhelming. I haven't posted anything for awhile on this blog and I am going to change that in 2019. I actually enjoy writing here.
But enough of that for now. It's time to say Merry Christmas & Happy, Happy New Year. Or, if you don't celebrate Christmas. I hope you enjoy the new year and have a wonderful season. Onward to 2019- Rob Little or no showers, that is, for those of us who live in Southern Arizona, but literally and figuratively speaking, there are still blooms to see! Come check out one of my four solo shows in May, or come see me play bass and sing while I get my bluesy-rock on with JC & The Juke Rockers! Stay tuned for ANT FARM shows coming soon!

JC is actually Ant Farm's guitarist, but it's a different project so it's actually a different band . . . we're not pulling an Andy from Parks & Rec! (Rat Mouse becomes Mouse Rat, hahaha!) Anyway... If you're a cool cat or wanna get out, dawg, or you just want to hear some good tunes.... Here's where we'll/I be. And you can still catch me playing out solo, of course!
