Can you believe it’s Mid-July already? Where has the time flown?
If you are reading this we hope that you and your family are well, safe, healthy and staying hopeful during this unbelievable time in world history. As for us, we remain sincerely grateful for all of you who continue to tune in, support us and share our music. You make us feel like what we do matters, and that is all we can ever hope for.
Thank you.
We have been spending the last week or so having some fun, making highlight reels of our first ever online video series. For those of you who haven’t seen it: It is called the Treehouse Concert Series and features us at home, bringing music to your home from ours.
Why do we call it the Treehouse?
When we first moved to Florida in 2000 we found this amazing home just a block from the beach. We loved it at first sight, and were very lucky to be able get it. We fell in love with the views that stretched for many miles. It felt like a secret “Treehouse” that we would build as kids. We came to rely on it as a place to recharge and rest from our many trips around the world. It is our hideaway and for many years this home has helped to restore us and saved our sanity!
When we were suddenly sent home in March in the middle of a ship contract, we were a bit flabbergasted and then, like everyone else, shocked and thrown into unknown territory. We asked ourselves how we were going to spend our time in” lockdown” and decided to make our home our stage, and to keep playing. We went out bought a few supplies: camera, lighting, banners, and The Treehouse Concert Series was born!
In less than four months, we have made and posted 51 videos, performing 67 songs.
Now that it’s mid-summer, we are all beginning to see that the shutdown has been extended for many, especially those that work in the arts and entertainment world. That means we will be here longer than any of us could have anticipated.
Because of that, we are announcing that we will be making Season 2!
So many of you have written to us to let us know that these videos have helped you. We are humbled by that, and want to keep performing for you.
In light of all this we have set up a donations account to help get us through this time, so that we can continue to keep making music.

If you wish to donate, we would be grateful. Otherwise, we hope that you find another way to help those in need around you, for there are too many indeed. If you are in need yourself, we hope that you find help, and that you are able to find a way to “barter” your services for those necessities we all need.
We are all in this together, every single one…
We do what we love, we love what we do, see you all soon, Jozay and Patti
