Well, he blueses a lot more than rocks. But I’m really impressed by the way he takes on Bob Dylan and Jimi Hendrix and other icons of my youth.
Greg Guba likes to play with Carolyn Brown, but unfortunately she was down with a cold.
We talked to him and he’s planning to come back here in July. Maybe Carolyn can join him then!
This is a special place to play, I really like the vibe here when the musician and the crowd just tune in to each other. Is there anyone you would like to hear here?
