Twisted Acres Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 Hope you don't mind me sharing a bit of info on an upcoming show of mine in balmy New York City... I'll be at the Bitter End this Monday, January 12, at 9:30pm, playing a handful of songs of mine, along with my dear friends: Craig Meyer on drumsBrian Killeen on bassEric Katerle on guitarChris Kuffner (Ingrid Michaelson) on guitar (Chris plays bass with Ingrid and used to play bass with me, but he's back in town and we've dubbed him our personal Jonny Greenwood)Ryan Vaughn (Joshua Radin, Jeffrey Gaines) on percussionDaniel Weiss (Joan Osborne, Jill Stevenson) on organ/piano. PLUS we'll have Sir Chuck Hancock on sax for one number, and dear pals Rachel Platten, Sarah Versprille (The Josh Dion Band) and Kailin Garrity jumping up for some backing vocals as well. I have no idea where we're going to fit everyone! We'll be happy, shoe-horned little people! Thanks for letting me pimp a bit, much love vc'ers old and new! -mart Quote Link to post Share on other sites
