We have been busy, busy this summer. And when one is having a SUMMAH, as is appropriate and necessary, there is certainly no time for blogging.
Unfortunately, the glorious days of the celebrated season are coming to a close. As we left it we were in Ocean City, Maryland last. Let us do a brief catch up in two parts.
June 4, 2014 Slippery Noodle Indianapolis, IN - A favorite venue of ours, we have been coming here for years and it was a pleasure to return. We had a beautiful bluesy evening with a warm crowd in this stellar room. Indy is always good to us.
June 7, 2014 Evening Star Niagara Falls, NY - First time for us in Niagara. We had the pleasure of sharing the bill with 7 Horse and Black Heart Suicide in this old school club. Great sound and great people.
June 8, 2014 Hartwood Acres Pittsburgh, PA - This was a milestone gig for us. The Hartwood Acres shows are a classic Pittsburgh summer pastime and it was an honor to perform on this magnificent outdoor stage.
June 13, 2014 120 Tavern Marietta, GA - Just north of Atlanta we had an excellent show with some stellar Georgia musicians in this wonderful sounding room.
June 14, 2014 Brewhouse Rome, GA - Another evening shared with some great Georgia players in this charming town. We enjoyed walking around town meeting the kind folks.
June 16, 2014 Mellow Mushroom Oxford, AL - The classic argument for pizza tends not to include the south very often. Well, they have some tasty pies at this joint which you'll find all across the region. We had a very nice, cozy acoustic gig here.
June 18, 2014 One Stop Asheville, NC - Another first time town for us. I have always heard about the thriving music scene in this town. And sure enough, as we began to play the hippies started to turn out and turn about. Had a very fun time getting funky with the Asheville folks.
June 19, 2014 Scruffy City Hall Knoxville, TN - We had a grand time performing in K-town. It was fun walking around Market Square where there was plenty of action and live music.
July 2, 2014 Butler County Fair Butler, PA w/Bret Michaels - This was a massive gig for us performing for a crowd of thousands that came out to support their hometown boys Bret Michaels and yours truly. Totally epic.
July 12, 2014 Deutschtown Music Fest Pittsburgh, PA - Another fantastic outdoor festival gig. Cradled in Pittsburgh's historic Deutschtown on the North Side, this is a wonderful festival in its second year and we were proud to be part of it. I also ate a burger on a donut bun prior to the show. That's right, a donut bun. It was everything I dreamed it could be.
July 19, 2014 Manchester Community Block Party Pittsburgh, PA - Who says you can't have an outdoor block party with live music in the rain? Well, we say you can and we emphatically did.
July 22, 2014 Mahall’s Lakewood, OH - Our third time rocking this sweet venue and it was another triumphant evening of rock. We have had many spirited shows in Cleveland and this was no exception.
July 24, 2014 Mainstreet Toledo, OH - First time to Toledo at this rock club with a lot of history. So many great acts have performed here over the years in their early stages. Bands such as Smashing Pumpkins and Foxy Shazam. We are proud to be included in their company.
July 26, 2014 Leilapalooza Battle Creek, MI - Cereal City they call it; essentially all the cereal you can find at the grocery store is manufactured here. And they put on a pretty sweet summer music festival to boot. Held in a gorgeous public park, we were initially slated to play under the canopy of massive pine trees which would have been cool enough but a last minute change put us on one of the larger main stages. An excellent time was had by all. We were also introduced to new friends in Drugs Delaney with whom we would be sharing the stage with for several shows in the near future.
July 30, 2014 Whiskey Dixx Des Moines, IA - Back to Des Moines, we had the pleasure to spend some time with one of our favorite radio dj's Ron Sorenson at KFMG before heading to Whiskey Dixx where we had a rocking show with Drugs Delaney in this classic, appropriately whiskey-soaked rock club.
July 31, 2014 Cochran’s Pub Sterling, IL - Next we found ourselves in the small town of Sterling, IL where we had a great time with some wonderful folks that took care of us very well. We would be returning soon.
August 1, 2014 Freakster’s Roadhouse Pontiac, IL - A few hours south brought us to Pontiac, IL at this remarkable venue. It was a memorable night of incredible music as we shared the stage with the superb talents of Dory Drive, Crobot, and Drugs Delaney. We look forward to returning to this marvelous club.
We will take a quick respite at this point and finish off the remainder of the summer tour dates in the next installment.
In the meantime, check out our latest single "Los Angeles" which is gaining steam on the radio all across the country! Check it out here and request it at your local radio station!
Til next time,
