 Dear Friends, Family and Fans,
Summer is upon us and we're continuing with our sparse approach - less shows, but more meaningful experiences.
Upcoming happenings and dates to save -
Friday, June 20th - 5pm - Rally at the River for St. Jude, Florence, AL
We'll be playing the opening set Friday evening for this two-day fundraising event that takes place at McFarland Park in Florence, AL, right on the TN River!
JULY 9th-17th - MINI TOUR TO MICHIGAN!
Check our calendar for more info - we're excited to get back Up North to cool off and play a few shows!
Sunday, July 20th - 3:00pm - WC Handy Fest at The Village School, Sheffield, AL
WC Handy Fest is an annual music festival in The Shoals, with music taking place at all manner of venues and outdoor spaces across the area (always the last ten days or so of July).
We're delighted to share that The Village School Foundation will be hosting an official Handy Fest event (Sat + Sun!) with a variety of top-shelf Shoals Musicians. We'll be playing the Sunday show; more details TBA. We're especially excited, because it's right down the street from us, and is the non-profit org that we've been involved with since we moved to The Shoals.
(We even have a YouTube playlist of our various musical moments, captured at The Village School)
Thursday, August 20th - 6pm - Crafted Conversations, Florence, AL
Crafted Conversations is a monthly event hosted by Florence First United Methodist Church Senior Pastor Dale Cohen to meet people where they are on their spiritual journey and to enjoy warm, engaging, and thought-provoking conversations. Meeting monthly at Singin' River Brewing Company in Florence, Alabama, the event offers a musical guest and thought-provoking discussions in a casual atmosphere. Perfect for those who may use the phrase, "I'm spiritual but not religious."
We've attended several of these events, and this will be our 2nd time as a featured musical guest. We always come away inspired, and with new friends - the audience sits at several round tables for discussions on a particular theme. It's a beautiful and unique experience.
Friday, September 19th - 5pm - Flying Tiger Brewing, Monroe, LA
We're heading back down to North Louisiana for the weekend!
Saturday, September 20th - CornStock 3 - a Farm Warming, Collinston, LA
An autumn festival featuring live music, food, dancing, vendors, garden walks and more!
Save the date and make a pilgrimage to the countryside!
Saturday, September 27th - 6pm - An Evening With The DRR at The Ritz Studio, Sheffield, AL
The Ritz Studio is an intimate listening room (next door/attached to The Ritz Theatre) in downtown Sheffield, AL. We're excited to showcase here and bring some new songs and stories to the stage.
See the rest of our calendar here…
Thank you and hope to see you soon!!
Be Safe, Be Kind, Be Love!
