Band from the Block

The Bronx Brewery tasting was sweet! Great beer and a great vibe at the Bronx Ale House. Thank you to everyone at The Bronx Brewery for having us play at the event—we wish you the best of luck!

We kept a low profile and played an acoustic set with Dan on a small kit... but it was one of the best sets we've played this year. The bar was packed and we were really feeding off the energy.

The band is getting more and more comfortable with the songs on the album and we're beginning to do some jamming and improving on them. Dan did some nice hi-hat and ride work on the outro of "You Got That Too," which gave the tune a funkier sound and lifted it to a higher place. "Beast of Burden" was the cover that stole show again. For whatever reason, we really take to that 6/8 groove... and the crowd can tell.

Good times in the boogie down Bronx.
