Jan 25, 2010: Open Mic w/host Mr. Andrew at Hotel Utah Saloon

200pockets — Mon, 21 Dec 2009 22:45:11 -0700

THE HOTEL UTAH WEEKLY OPEN MIC
with host Mr. Andrew
http://theutah.org

The Hotel Utah open mic is the epicenter of San Francisco's singer-songwriter community. Its stage attracts performers at all stages of their careers: from seasoned veterans to first-timers. It attracts music fans who know a good thing when they see it.
The musicians who come regularly don't come just to get a little "stage time" - they come because of the community that calls Monday at The Utah home - and the musicians that come in for the first time eventually start to come regularly...

So come on down this monday, have a beer, bring your guitar if that's your thing, and sit back and enjoy.

FREE ADMISSION

Pop/Alternative/Indie

I'm excited to finally announce the official CD release party date for my new album The Pieces Left.

The candlelight performance and launch of my new album will take place Saturday January 23rd 2010 at The Hotel Utah Saloon here in beautiful San Francisco. Show will start at 9pm. Stay tuned as I will have more information on ordering pre-sale tickets online.

I will be performing songs from the entire album with my band The New Believers. Jeff Johnson on guitar, Michael Winger on bass/synths, and Jake Wood on drums/synths. Supporting music acts for the evening include SF singer-songwriter Kevin Meagher, DJ Keith Kanoff, following the lusterous and vibey music of Lindy Lafontaine's Trio.

I will be autographing copies of my new album The Pieces Left throughout the evening and they will be available for purchase at the merch table.
