Hi again folks!
Summer's here and stuff is happening.

We had six shows in June and have seven dates already set for July.   Requests for August and September are also starting to come in, and at least three of our more "regular" places have been setting up dates for this fall and winter.   We truly appreciate the support from so many nice folks.  

There have been some new places on our schedule these last few months.  "Vintage Spokane" reached out through Project Joy for senior entertainers.  Our show for them was their first time booking through PJ and everyone seemed to enjoy the event.   Let's hope they will schedule more "vintage" musicians.

North Point Village has been booking us fairly often over the last couple years, but we never even noticed that they have separate cottages around back for memory care residents.  It was really nice doing a couple sets in two of the cottages.  They are smaller and more intimate settings where we don't need mics or PA gear.  Some of our best shows come from those little, up-close and personal events.

Since we now have Zoom digital mini-recorders, we can capture great quality live recordings.  In this last year, we have made several new albums from our shows.  These include our recent "Spring Concert", the "Halloween Show" from last fall (we were the Blues Brothers), and our "Stuck in the '60s" romp at the Hillyard Community Center.   CDs of these, and other albums, are available at our performances for NO Charge.

The  "Spring Concert"  is available to play or download on our RECORDINGS  page.   We have several albums online that can be streamed or saved for no charge.  These are high-quality, low-loss music files and sound really good.  Our "Classics" studio album, and several live concert recordings are available.

Don and his wife retired to Spokane after living and working in California.  He played lead guitar in popular Bay Area bands for more than 50 years.  He retired to Spokane in 2015 and teamed-up with Doug as a duo in 2018.   Don is a fine singer and guitarist, and also enjoys adapting classic songs for the ukulele.  As a retiree, he also plays golf, rides his e-bike and does remote control rock crawling.  He and his wife now make their home in the Dishman Hills area of Spokane Valley.

Doug is from Spokane and a long-time area bassist.  He worked at the local library for many years and played in numerous popular local dance bands.  He plays an acoustic bass guitar in the duo, and also plays Fender bass & upright bass, guitar, piano and other instruments.  Now retired, Doug and his wife live in the South Perry neighborhood.  They enjoy riding their Harley Electra-Glide, swimming, and caring for their home & yard.  Doug also produces music recordings in his home studio.
