Greetings, all!
After a lengthy hiatus, jbbeverley.com is being completely overhauled, as I have some new music in the works, a novel that is being edited for release, and some other interesting things in store for everyone.
The last couple years of my life have been interesting--to say the least. I've been working pretty exclusively on a few ranches, and spending much more time around animals than people, which has been a real blessing. The patience and humility that has come with this has been quite the gift, and I am eternally grateful for this chapter of my life.
With that established, I have been writing some new music, and after five months of serious time at the computer with an aching back, I have finished my debut novel, West of Mercy, and it is currently in the editing phase of things. It is a gritty western thriller set in a small town during the railroad boom. I have, and will be posting excerpts from the book on my SUBSTACK, and will be offering both a pre-order for the book here on my site, as well as some signed copies once it comes out. You can read up on the specifics if you sub to my stack! (Ha!)
In other news, I have a new music project in the works called Leaves In Autumn, a heavy, doom-inspired project in the same vein as Ghostdance was. I'm currently writing content for our debut album Amidst The Wolves, and will be doing some tracking real soon.
Another feature this site will offer is behind-the-scenes content for the MEMBERS ONLY section, which will offer live streams and early access to music, videos, and even me reading passages from my book. Hell, I might throw up a video of me and Buddy fishing. But all the more private affairs will be showcased in the MEMBERS ONLY section of the site.
Myself, and a very small team, will be compiling old photos, video and concert footage, and song lyrics to add to the main site, and keeping the store in new designs, so you will notice a lot of changes being made as things progress.
Lastly, I'd like to express some gratitude. While I have not been on the road in over six years now, I have never stopped being shown that my measly contribution to this world has been deeply appreciated by so many of you. The emails and other messages I have gotten mean more to me than any of you could possibly know, and I am honored to know that my life has had a good impact on yours. I love and appreciate all of you with my entire being. Thank you for being present even though I haven't been.
I look forward to updating you all soon. For now, join the MAILING LIST, and God-willing, I'll be seeing you again soon.
Yours,
- J.B.
