Getting Set for Summer 2009 - May 19, 2009
Our performance at Old Town on Saturday, May 2nd was interesting. First, a wedding was taking place at the gazebo, so we were late getting started (congrats to the new couple, by the way!), and then rain interrupted us twice – the second time for good! But the music was rocking and we had a great time picking and singing. Thank you to the die-hard fans that stuck around until we finally had to call it a day – we hope you enjoyed the entertainment. Thanks also to Jimmy Abraham for all the arrangements and to Mancle for the great sound! This was a benefit concert to promote the Albuquerque Folk Festival coming on June 19th and 20th.
We recently played at the Manzano Mesa Multi-generational Center in Albuquerque. Our energy was high, and the audience included some terrific dancers. We would also like to thank the Tahitian dancers who entertained us during our break; they were fantastic!
We are looking forward to some really great venues this summer including our next performance at the Heritage Farm at the Albuquerque Bio Park on June 13th at 11:00 am. We hope to see you all at the Albuquerque Folk Festival on June 20th; we will be at the Jam with the Band tent at 1:00 pm. We are especially proud of our upcoming main stage performance at the 35th Santa Fe Bluegrass and Old Time Music Festival on August 29th.
