Steve is moving along.

We are proud to tell everyone that our one and only Wizard of all things FFN, Steven Oder has been accepted to the graduate program of film production at the University of Central Arkansas and will be starting this fall. We are super proud of Steve and we will miss his presence both on stage and in all of the incredible recording abilities he possesses that have allowed us to do so many things on our own.

Steve and Mike started FFN close to a decade ago and it's hard to imagine the band without him, but neither he or the rest of us want to see the end of the band. We are as of yet unsure who will take his place on bass, but we hope he knows that he is and always will be a member of Frontier Folk Nebraska.

Steve has recorded all our records and has been the interesting part of nearly everyone of our songs and it's going to take some serious chops to fill his space. We love him dearly and wish him and Lanette all the best in their new life. He will still be finishing the mixing of our 3rd record after he moves and he continues production on a documentary about the band titled There Is No One In The Truck.

He will be playing his final show with us at the Whispering Beard Folk Festival in Friendship, IN the weekend of August 23-25.

Steve, we love you to death brother,

FFN

Them's the brakes.

Big thanks to all the help we received this weekend in Lexington from Daniel and Brandi and our families for bringing reinforcements after our brakes failed on the truck and we ended up in a tree. Could have been worse in countless ways, so we move on as we always do; all in. Thanks to Chris Warman and all at the Paddy Wagon in Richmond for having us back again as well.

Lima, OH July 6 and Fountain Square in Cincinnati, OH July 9

All that said we've got quite a bit of vehicle repairs to take care of and if you've been putting off purchasing any and all things FFN we hope you'll go for it now. Treat yourself, you know you want to. MP3 Albums available here. VINYL LP is for sale on this blog. Please go for it. Much obliged.

CHECK YOUR BRAKES OFTEN! DON'T DRIVE AT ALL IF THEY START ACTING FUNNY!
