I really love these open jams around Nashville where Iโ€™ve met so many great musicians. Fun times! ๐ŸŽถ Iโ€™m here for one more week then heading back to Chicago for a month then moving back to Nashville full time in April. Super excited for this next chapter of my music journey. โšก๏ธ Playing my signature guitar built by SoulFire GuitarWorks with @SeymourDuncan pickups.

My heart is full after an amazing weekend in Bellevue Washington. โค๏ธ Itโ€™s always such a great time reconnecting with my @CCAKidsTweet family. ๐Ÿ’› It was fun to perform the KISS classic โ€œShout It Out Loudโ€ with my friend Savannah for this years talent show. Thank you to #MarkAgnesi @gibsonguitar for letting me borrow this killer SG. ๐ŸŽธ I had a great time being co-emcee this year! ๐ŸŽค My appreciation for the retreat has grown every year. The connection with these familiesโ€ฆ the fact that everyone โ€œgets itโ€ and I think being older too being able to help younger families or mentor them has been really cool. ๐Ÿ˜Ž This community holds such a special place in my heart and I already canโ€™t wait for next year. ๐Ÿ’› If youโ€™re looking for a worthy #nonprofit, please consider a donation to #CCAKids at ccakids.org #petesdiary #goldenharsyndrome #craniofacial #RockYourLife

โ€œGotta Let You Goโ€ was the first single release off my #KeepOnRockin album. Canโ€™t believe it was a year ago! Miss playing these songs live. DM if you need a guitarist or would love to play these original songs. ISO drums, bass, and vocals. Northern Chicago suburbs. Listen to the album ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿป earache.lnk.to/KeepOnRockin @petedank ๐ŸŽธ #PetesDiary #newrock #marshallamps #gibsonguitar #musicianswanted #lakecountyil #chicago #chicagomusicscene

optimism isn't about forcing yourself to smile when you're frustrated, defeated, or burned out. it's about taking a moment, taking a breath, and getting started again. you'll find yourself smiling more often than you think.
