I'm in the process of booking some new shows and trying out some new solo material and new collaborations...keep checking back to see what new gigs are happening!

Join me in Half Moon Bay at the Old Princeton Landing on Friday, April 26th...9pm. I get the night started with a solo acoustic set, followed by local band, Bar Fight, and then a wonderful night of music by The White Buffalo. The show will likely sell out so get your tickets early and come join in the fun!

Good morning! Happy New Year, Happy Friday, Happy Life in General!

I hope this email finds you all happy and healthy. Many of you don't live in Northern California so I know these shows don't apply, but I wanted to say hello to all of you, far and wide.
It's been way too long! Life has been treating me very kindly, so no complaints here

I'm very excited to be back in action next week with a great line-up of musicians!

High Sierra is presenting a series of Troubador Sessions throughout the year here in San Francisco. I am honored to be a part next week's show. 4 Songwriters-in-the-Round, swapping songs - it's a free show too!

And if you're up for even more music, there's another fun event happening in San Francisco on Sunday, February 24th at the Connecticut Yankee: Dave Brogan's musical "retrospective" - Brogan will be playing a few tunes with each of his favorite projects, past and present. A little Kate Gaffney and the "Kitchen Sink" action will ensue...you'll be sure to see some fine and familiar faces! 100 Connecticut Street...things get kicked off around 8pm.

I hope to see you many of you before another long time has passed!

Much Love & Music,
Kate Gaffney

Happy Birthday to all you summertime babies...oh yes this is a shameless plug for those of you near San Francisco to come join me for a night of birthday fun. It's actually my birthday eve and I'll have some very special guests sitting in with me...some of the usual suspects - Joe Kyle Jr. and Steve Randall are rumored to be in the house! With possibilities of others too....you never know who might show up!

Here's a little blurb about the gig, written by bartender and music coordinator, Christian Barry - he actually gave me my first gig ever back in January of 2003....it's all about coming full-circle!

"Kate Gaffney this Sunday Night July 22 at Glen Park Station. 8:30pm. Special Guests are possible. If you don't know Kate Gaffney by now, it is about time you wake up a little later on Monday or call in, or use a vacation day. Kate has performed at HSBG, the Great American Music Hall, Yoshi's, the Palms, and all over the Country. A sweet sounding Americana mountain echoing voice, a gritty spunky lyricist, and always a hell of a good time on stage. No Cover, byot...."

This Sunday, July 22nd, 8:30pm
@ Glen Park Station Pub
2816 Diamond Street
San Francisco, CA

Hope to see some local faces!

Also - I'll be back at the Moonraker in Pacifica on Saturday, August 11th...that's going to be a monthly gig - 2nd Saturdays.

That's all for now!!

Kindly,
