Fun stuff happening this weekend folks. First off, the return of two of the areas best duos this Friday night....Kirsten and Jasmin and 10th Concession's Ian and Evan Koteles. Both of these acts have played here more than once and have mesmerized our audiences each time. Great songs and beautiful harmonies. I've actually had the pleasure of working with Ian and Evan in the studio for their latest effort this past summer and can't say enough about them. Masterful and creative guitar parts and spot on vocals. One take wonders like I've never seen. I met Kirsten and Jasmin at a Living Room Live event and they floored me and everyone in the room.

Tonight - Hank Woji w/ Mindy Simmons & Franci Holland
