Thanks very much to everyone who came to the third staging of "O Berkley, Where Hart Thou?" on Saturday, February 9th. Many folks said it was the best one yet and we think so, too! Stay tuned for news about a new CD and much more and be sure to check the calendar to see when we play next. See you soon!
Thanks to the academy with the San Diego Music Awards for nominating "O Berkley, Where Hart Thou?" for Best Americana or Country Album for this year's awards. We're honored to share the nomination with our friends, the 7th Day Buskers, as well as all the other worthy nominees in the category. And if you don't already have your copy, be sure to pick it up from CD Baby.
"Pocket Change" also available online
"Pocket Change finds this duo at its best, combining poignant lyrics with masterfully crafted melodies and harmonies. There are no gimmicks, studio effects, or outside musicians here. It captures their live sound in its purest form: two guys, two guitars, and an occasional harmonica or banjo.
-San Diego Troubadour
