With regards to booking: if a date is not listed, then the acoustic band, full band or Ezra (solo) is avail.
if a date says "NOT BOOKED" "only Ezra avail", then only Ezra himself (and his guitars), would be avail for a solo acoustic performace.

My uncle betty once said to me, "playing music is like two horse hairs on a pickle" I'm still work'n on the translation of that. In the meantime, I'll tell ya bout us. I enjoy long walks on a short beach, collecting popcorn kernels that look like the cast of friends, and swimming with my shoes on. Thomas, Enjoys pocket lent, and bearskin rugs.
Me (ezra) and Thomas (Thomas), have been playing music together for about 10 years, "Ezra Thomas" was our evil scheme to be a band but still retain the flexibility of a solo artist. We've been at ET for about four years. We have one CD out (The weight of Being), got great reviews, and one on the way (Promise Land).
As far as production.. We're almost a one stop shop. Matt Talbert does tasty Electric guitar work, Me and Aaron do the rest (keyboards, guitar, drums, perc, midi, lots of cow bell!!, etc..) We've had a few friends help out on Strings and Key parts.
This, and the last recording, were recorded at our project Studio in Dallas and mixed elsewhere.
Were not playing out much at the moment, gearing up to release the CD then do some touring around Texas. We love playing Austin, We did SXSW one year, had a blast! ...and what else?... oh this is where I start name dropping... GREG....TIM....BILL...SAM....Pretty impressive hu? Anyway, the CD should be released in the next few months and we'll get our Gig on.
I'll have to Finnish this later, my toes hurt.
hey ezra iwanted buy the song take me with you but i cannot coz i dont live in usa when i sign up on snocap... can i find this song in another place ty

Damn, Dude! I hope they get the meds right. LOL After reading that line about the leprechaun, I half suspected Tim Taylor of hijacking your mayspace. I'm diggin the posted tunes. The Ranch,.. seems like more than a decade has past since,.. s#!t.
I never have gotten out much, so that was a time in my life that I'll always remember fondly. You were like my own personal soundtrack playing during the good times & bad! :D
Great to hear from you! Thanks for the Christmas comment, even if it IS September, haha! :-P I agree with the comment below, I miss the days of the ranch. I still haven't forgotten the fun I had, the things I learned & play chess all night, Dayum Gina! :)
we need to put together a lil myspace where we can promote our collaberative project asap... i think it would be cool... or maybe the myspace era is fading.. you tell me i can set up a profile and leave pictures and tracks up to you... maybe we'll do it next week if i come over..
