What a killer time we had at Tip's. It was an honor and a priviledge to be onstage at the heart of New Orleans music, Tipitina's Uptown. Thanks to everybody who came out, it meant a lot to see all of those familiar faces, and it was great to see some new ones too. Thanks also to Evelyn Montgomery, Jimmy Carpenter and Derek Huston for contributing their incredible musicianship and helping us bring it home in style! There are some great shots here taken by our good friend and photographer extraodinairre Jeffery Dupuis. Check out the rest of this shoot and much, much more at his website, www.JefferyDupuis.com .
It was another great trip up the East Coast the last two weeks with stops in many of our favorite venues and some great new places as well. We kicked it off at the Rogue Tavern in Birmingham, AL, a hip new place we'll definitely be getting back to. From there it was up to DC for a post-Nationals game party at the Bullpen, and on to our favorite new little road house, the Friendly Inn in Ellicott City. Had the pleasure of jamming with Mr. Warner Willams there, a truly legendary talent.
Thanks to everyone who made it out to the Hi Ho Lounge for the official Wishing Well CD Release party! We had a full house and full stage of musicians on hand for a great night of music. We got a few good photos (check them out on our photo page) and a nice little video of our new song "Chocolate Cake." We posted it here on our video page.
After a two week run up the East Coast we're finally back in New Orleans for couple of days off before a big July 4th gig at the Old Point Bar across the river in Algiers. It was great trip, starting with a quick stop through Lu Lu's over in Gulf Shores, Alabama on our way up to the Midsummer Music Fest in Atlanta. . .
