The Side Doors
As young stars usually do, our lead female singer Colleen Songbird Seymour is moving out west to seek new horizons and opportunities. We miss her fiercely already. The Concert in the Garden on August 22 will be our last scheduled performance with her.
However, being the prudent and gallant young gentlemen that we are, and with Colleen's blessing and assistance, we have good news to share with you:
With great pleasure we will be presenting our newest band member, Jessica Collins, at the Red House on September 21st. Please join us there to welcome her into our band! |
