Hi Friends!
Mid-summer greetings to you all! I hope your summer is going well.
First of all, what's on my mind is sending condolences and comfort wishes to all who suffered loss, especially of family and loved ones in the devastating floods of the Guadalupe River in Texas over the 4th of July weekend. I understand that this situation is not yet over in the Texas Hill Country, and that other parts of the U.S. have suffered flood tragedies as well. Not the light-hearted summer everyone hopes for and a heavy burden for all to bear.
There are many organizations in the hill country reaching out to help. One that is dear to my heart is the Kerrville Folk Festival Foundation in Kerrville, Texas, who quickly offered up the Quiet Valley Ranch (site of the festival), as a center to provide meals, camping, and resources to help both those in need of shelter and those who are volunteering in clean-up and recovery of the disaster. This is still an ongoing effort. Donations to the Kerrville Folk Festival Foundation are welcomed to keep the kitchen and resources going.
In other parts of my world, I sadly had to cancel a few concerts and events in June due to a Covid diagnosis. Luckily, I have recovered and those dates have been rescheduled to August 2025. I apologize for the change, but I am glad that I was diagnosed before possibly spreading the crazy virus, and that we were able to bring these dates back on to the calendar. I look forward to seeing y'all at these events. One is a songwriting workshop and concert in Lewisville, TX on August 9th and 10th, and the other a concert in Johnson City, TX on August 23rd.
Looking forward to fall, I'm excited about my upcoming Switzerland tour in September with my compadres Grouchy Like Riley (Danny Britt, Marvin Dykhuis, and Chip Dolan). It has been a while since I've played in Switzerland and I can't think of any better musicians to share the stage with than the Grouchies. Plus, it's going to be wonderful to see our Swiss fans again! If you're in Europe, please join us at one of these concerts.
Also in September, I'll be playing at the "Texas Women's Songwriter Festival" in Lockhart, Texas. This is the brainchild of my admirable singer-songwriter amiga Mandy Rowden. Check out the line-up and make sure to note that weekend on your calendars! Plus, Lockhart is famous for some of the best BBQ in Texas!
On December 14th, Lynn and I will be hosting one of our "Blue Truck Concerts" at the ranch in Tubac, Arizona. Our music guests for this concert will be Pete and Michael Ronstadt (Linda Ronstadt's nephews). I had the pleasure of touring with them last fall. They are both excellent songwriters, musicians, and storytellers. It's sure to be a special cultural, Christmassy, and entertaining event. If you're interested in tickets or want to be added to our Blue Truck Concerts email list, please contact Lynn at lynn24215@gmail.com.
If you haven't visited the tiendita at my website in a while, please do! Stock up on any of my music including my once out of print works "Destiny's Gate" and "Dreaming From The Labyrinth". I'm happy to announce that we were granted permission from Warner Bros. to print and sell these titles under my label. And if you don't have my latest CD "With A Guitar & A Pen", buy it too!
As always, I truly appreciate your continued support. Have a wonderful summer!
Abrazos,
Tish
Tish Note - March 2025
March 2025
Happy Springtime Everyone!
I hope this note finds you happy and healthy.
I’m sending out this note to let y’all know about a cool tour coming up in the fall. September 5 – 15, 2025, I will be on a tour in Switzerland with my friends “Grouchy Like Riley” (grouchylikeriley.com), the Austin, Texas trio of Marvin Dykhuis, Chip Dolan, and Danny Britt. It is a tour in which musicians, fans, and friends will all travel in a bus together. It will include beautiful stops along with performances in different towns along the way. Of thirty-two seats available for fans and friends there are four to six seats left unfilled. I’m sure it will be a fun and memorable trip! I hope some of you can join us!
The promoter is Martin Meier, a long-time friend and fan of Austin Musicians. I’ve attached information and details about the tour in this notice. Martin’s email is martinatxmeier@bluewin.ch. if you have any additional questions.

Apart from this invitation, I’m looking forward to spending this springtime in Texas where I have several shows coming up and a few gigs in the Bay Area in May. And… more good news – my Warner Bros. albums “Destiny’s Gate” and “Dreaming From The Labyrinth” are now available to purchase from my website!! After being out of print for some time, we got permission from the record label to print up our own copies. If these CDs have been missing from your collection, now is a good time to buy or download them from mundotish.com to complete your set!
Anyway, thanks for your continued support. I look forward to seeing y’all at one of my upcoming shows. Or, maybe in Switzerland!!
Gracias Y Abrazos,
Tish
