Katie’s Lobster Lawyer

Saturday night I went to a fantastic show, Katie Martucci (marr-too-chee) and Akie Bermiss (burr-meese). I wanted to make that the lede before I explained why I haven’t been writing.

The Charming Whiskey Charmers

Saturday Night I saw The Whiskey Charmers at Rockwood Music Hall. This was my first time seeing them since the pandemic started. Needless to say, I was excited. Not only are they one of my favorite bands, but Carrie and Lawrence are friends. It’s always better when the musical appreciation comes before the personal, then […]
