Pic of Winter Hours Tribute Gig #1

We had a wonderful time opening the show for the Winter Hours' 1st Tribute Gig. I believe there were 10 groups that performed that afternoon, and they were all so amazing. We all played our song from the Winter Hours' tribute album, "A Few Uneven Rhymes." The gig was at a lovely gallery, 1978 Maplewood Arts Center, Maplewood NJ, that was filled to standing room only during the performances. Jeff Raspe did a wonderful job of creating and being the inspiration for the album & was really touching as the MC. Below is a picture from him of Jack Brag performing "She Waits." Deena Shoshkes (from The Cucumbers) joined us to perform the song from the album "Hyacinth Girl."

Gig with Deena

We had a wonderful time with Deena at the gig in Hoboken at the Goldhawk. Though it was very snowy that day, many people braved the weather to come out to support Deena. We were playing on what is possibly the smallest stage ever, but we made it work (ok, so some of us had to be off the stage, but we all kind of fit). Here's a picture of us playing "Hyacinth Girl" with Deena joining us on stage:Deena was terrific, as she is always, & we were really proud to participate in her CD launch party. Go buy her album!

Jack Brag gig at Desmond's Tavern NYC

We've been quite busy behind the scenes working on a bunch of stuff including the CD & material for the new website that I'm designing (whew, it takes A LOT of work).

So, we have our next gig coming up. Here's the info -

Jack Brag returns to Ace Of Clubs

I'm excited to say that we're playing at Ace of Clubs again of Oct. 17th. Below is the poster with all the info. See ya there!

Jack Brag Post-Gig at Ace of Clubs

The gig at Ace of Clubs went really well. People really enjoyed the song that Kevin & I did for The Maledictions. He wrote a lovely song and it was fun to write an accompaniment to it.

Jack Brag was great! We were really tight in our playing and we got great audience response. We had a professional photographer there to document our playing and I'll be posting some of the pictures in the next few days.

We have some more gigs coming up soon that I will announce probably next week.

Here's the flyer for our upcoming Jack Brag performance. After the success of our first public performance, we're in a much bigger space (I always like a little elbow rooom to play). We're considering this an important gig for us and we really need your support - it's going to be great. I hope to see all of you there.


Oh, and bring all your friends :-)
