We done been YouTubed -- Sweet!

A friend found and sent me this link from YouTube. It's a video of us performing our first song on the first night of the 2009 International Blues Challenge on Beale Street in Memphis, TN. What a cool, cool trip down memory lane this is. I hope it looks like we're having a blast playing in this video -- 'cause we TOTALLY were! After 2 great nights at the Rum Boogie Cafe (where this video was shot), we were fortunate enough to make it to the top 10 and perform in the finals on Saturday at the Orpheum Theater. Alas, we did not win, but we sure had one heck of a GREAT experience! I have NO idea who shot this video, but I'm very glad that that person was there to document this wonderful moment in time for the band -- HUGE THANKS!

Kev & 6 Hands Down -- 6 Hands Down

Blues in the hot summer!

It’s that grand time of year when we get to move our musical activities to the out-of-doors in the form of festival appearances. We have a bunch of those types of shows going on all summer long, so, please make sure to check our calendar at the 6 Hands Down website for details as they continue to develop.

We love, love, and I mean LOVE playin’ festival gigs. They give us a chance to play nothing but our own music in front of a lot of people who may never have had the chance to see us before. Festivals also give us the chance to catch up with other musicians and friends who, due to all of our crazy schedules, we don’t get to see perform as often enough as we’d like – so that’s way, way cool!

Lookin’ forward to seein’ you all at some festivals this summer! Stop by and say “hi”!
