It is snowing right now as I record this, you know how that makes me feel. Winter is not over! And neither is 2014 apparently, I still got one of last year's releases I really still need to play. Hear a few from Cropdust out of Brooklyn, NY. This, usually string, quintet put out their debut release in late 2014: Old Man Hustle. Catch them on June 11th at the Rockwood Music Hall in New York City. Also, Fletcher Bright & Bill Evans, Grandpa's Cough Medicine and The Blind Owl Band. All on tour, check them out!
