Thanks to all of you who tuned in to my livestream concert! It was so nice to feel a little closer to all of you in these isolating times. It felt like our world with folks joining from all over the world from Austria to Missouri and Turkey to Cape Town. I look forward to seeing you all again next Wednesday at 5pm CET! If you haven’t supported the Kickstarter campaign, then check it out. Greetings from Vienna where I’m looking back at my little free speech booth at the STL airport (at St. Louis Lambert International Airport)

The campaign for my new record started yesterday and we already raised over €2000! 💥Thank you to everyone who supported it so far! Here’s a little video from the studio with a new song called “Be Thankful”. It’s very fitting today. 😊 We still have a long way to go before we reach our goal though, so please check out the campaign if you haven’t yet. I’m going to do a live stream concert tomorrow at 5pm (GMT +2). See ya then! #kickstarter #crowdfunding @kickstarter (Filmed by @rene_muehlberger at his studio)

Two years ago, many of you helped bring to life my last album, Idle Hands, through Kickstarter! Because of your support, I was able to release it on my own terms and without going into debt. As if that wasn’t great enough in itself, I was surprised when many of you actually thanked me for letting you support and be a part of the project. I realized then what a beautiful and fulfilling opportunity a campaign like that could be. For the last year, I’ve been hard at work on a new album. Originally I planned to open the pre-order for it this summer when the album is to be finished, but, with the outbreak of this virus and so many of us isolated from eachother, I feel like this is exactly the time when I need you all (my fans, friends, and family) and when you might need me! Thus, I will start a crowdfunding campaign for my upcoming album in the next days. I plan to do regular live stream concerts over the next weeks and will happily be here for you like you’ve been there for me for so long! Thank you, Ian @kickstarter #crowdfunding

After days of only bad news, I was happy to read something good today! Austria’s biggest newspaper wrote about my part in the “Kirschgarten” at the Theater in der Josefstadt, the album that I released with songs from the play, and my probable concert next month at the Stadtsaal. It’s ironic that I’m on a bed in the picture they used from @andreasjakwerth because that’s exactly where I’ve been the last day wondering what I’m going to do now that all of my plans have changed. Stay tuned. I’ll let ya know what I come up with soon. Wish me luck and good luck to all of you who are going through similar trials. @kronen.zeitung @josefstadttheater #kirschgarten (at Theater in der Josefstadt)

I made it back to Vienna three hours before the travel ban goes into effect. Thanks for all of your good wishes. Sincerely (at Vienna, Austria)

Thank you to everyone who has been concerned about my travel status. As some of you know, out of a concern for being locked out of Europe for an indefinite amount of time, I decided yesterday to try to make it back to Vienna before it’s too late. I transferred in Montreal. Instead of spending the 19 hours of this layover in an international airport, which might be one of the worst places to be at the moment, I decided to go into town and have my last coffee before an uncertain flight back to Austria and the next weeks of self-imposed quarantine. I had that coffee at Leonhard Cohen’s old regular cafe, Bagels Etc. Thanks to all the friendly people of this city who I met there. May you weather this storm well. May all of you out there. There are no borders that truly hold back a virus. There are no borders that hold back the capacity of human empathy, camaraderie, and love either. (at Bagel etc)

I came to the US last week to film music videos for my next album. Unfortunately, I have terrible timing. We had to cancel the video shoots because my filmmaking partner wasn’t allowed to enter the country. I also planned on playing a concert on my farm next week. We will have to cancel that as well due to public health concerns. With borders closing around the world, I’m going to make a last ditch effort to get back to Europe before I’m locked out for an indefinite amount of time. Please wish me luck on my next 48 hours of Ber uncertain travel. Good luck to all of you who have it even worse than this.

Hello Travel Ban (at Sainte Genevieve, Missouri)

Luckily I made it back to Missouri before Trump’s travel-ban goes into effect. Thanks to all of you who were concerned about me being stuck somewhere. I hope you are healthy and getting through this chaos as smoothly as possible. I might be sitting on my hands on my farm for awhile, so drop me a line if you’re self-quarantined somewhere and I’ll send you a letter or a song. Stay strong and stay together (at Sainte Genevieve, Missouri)

Unfortunately, all of our performances at the @josefstadttheater are cancelled for the rest of the month due to fear of the Corona virus. Since it’s currently more likely to win the lottery in Austria than catching covid 19, I’m on my way back to the US today to see my family, film some music videos, and play a show on my farm next Saturday. If you’re around and not busy “prepping”, then I’ll see ya soon (at Theater in der Josefstadt)

I love this picture from @nikolaimeierjohann of me with my dear friends Davide @veivecura and Heta @townofsaints 😍 I’m still coming down from the @touroftours 🛬 I don’t like stopping though, so I’ll release some music this weekend. 🚀 (at FRANZ MEHLHOSE)

After weeks on the road with my dear friends in the Tour of Tours, I’m happy to be back in Vienna performing in the Kirschgarten at the Theater in der Josefstadt. This Friday I’ll release three more songs that I wrote for the play! Keep your ears open. 👂🍒🎼 @touroftours @josefstadttheater #kirschgarten (at Theater in der Josefstadt)
