Fiona is our drummer Ian’s sister. She kindly chipped in for our tour — did she simply want her bro out of town for awhile? We may never know. :-)

As promised: upcoming posts will be individual thanks for all those kind friends, family and fans who funded our Northwest tour. We love you!

Very cool and encouraging.

Live at Sam Bond’s, Eugene, OR

Cool joint. Fantastic food. Super nice people. Decent size stage. Easy going and helpful sound tech.

Our crowd was sparse but enthusiastic. Given that a snow storm was happening we were surprised we had an audience at all.

We definitely hope to come back and play here in nicer weather!
