ALSO...
check out this book!
Brass bands, magicians, break dancers, statues, puppetteers,
astronomers...there is rarely a dull moment in the streets of New Orleans
thanks to this lively cast of characters. Jim Flynn's Sidewalk Saints
is a collection of local street performers sharing their stories
in their own words. We like this book because it gives names to the
faces we see everyday and offers a personal glimpse into the rich &
diverse street culture that keeps the phrase alive- only in new
orleans!
Pick up a copy and look for us on page 102!
ABOUT
US
We met each
other through our friend Zach in New York about 10 years
ago. We hit it off right away, and our music has brought us all through
the Caribbean, Europe, and the USA. When we're not working, we are often
dreaming and scheming about learning new music, recording new albums,
and getting better.
| ABOUT DORISE Don't let the guitar fool you. Dorise can also sing, tap dance, play drum + keys, and capture it all on Pro Tools 8. A woman of endless invention, she is the reason Casio put a strap on their little keyboard synthesizers so they could be played like guitars. |
