Ladies! Gentlemen!  We are excited to announce our next performance will be on SATURDAY, APRIL 30th, 7pm at ROCKWOOD MUSIC HALL, STAGE 2!   BUT! We have something to show you…

This photo was taken from our latest gig at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. We had the opportunity to perform for the esteemed Bob Kerrey, and his wife Sarah Paley,  in a celebration of his tenure as President of The New School. (Our alma mater!) Our band was asked to perform, and the evening also featured performances by the lovely Abigail Washburn,  and The Steve Martin.

It was a gorgeous evening in a spectacular New York City landmark. We were thrilled, honored, and delighted to perform for such remarkable people.  Thank you to Bob and Sarah for including “Erin and her Cello” in their celebration of The New School.  We wish them joy in their adventures to come!

And to Mr. Martin–  WE LOVE KING TUT! … almost as much as we love The Great Remember. :)

So! For those of you who could not attend our “Met Debut”…come check us out SATURDAY, APRIL 30th, 7pm at Rockwood Music Hall, Stage 2!

FREE! FUN! & FANCY!
