We only have a couple of shows this month, but we’re gearing up for our CD release concert on January 14th, 2011!!!  It’ll be at the El Mocambo and we have awesome opening acts:  Simone Schmidt and Chris Coole as well as Corin Raymond and the Sundowners.  I’ll keep you all posted!
This week, we play the Cameron on Thursday, then follow that up with a show at Castro’s in the beaches.  We’ll be playing as the original trio so it will be a throwback to our beginnings.  Ben will be back soon though…we miss him!
See you soon and Happy Holidays!
