Hello music lovers,
I have my first musical side project and we’re hitting the road! My band, Brush Prairie (acoustic covers of vintage tunes and a few originals) is heading down the West Coast with Hawkeye (featuring my hubby Travis) and 1776 (you must have heard of them by now).  We’ll be ending up at the 4th annual Clean Air Clear Stars Festival in Pioneertown, CA and so should you.  Or at least get to whichever of the following stops is closest to your pad (or your mom’s):

9/10/10 at Knifefest – The Knife Shop at Kelly’s Olympian, Portland, Oregon

9/11/10 at The World Famous Kenton Club, Portland, Oregon

9/13/10 at Bottom of the Hill, San Francisco, California

9/14/10 at Audie’s Olympic Tavern, Fresno, California

9/15/10 at 3 of Clubs, Los Angeles, California

Sept 18/19 at Clean Air Clear Stars, Pioneer Town, California

This is gonna be a super fun tour and to take it one step further than the amazing festival in the desert there will be a kick ass RECOVERY party at The ACE Hotel Palm Springs on Sept 19 & 20th. When you call The ACE to book your room make sure to mention Clean Air Clear Stars (CACS) for a discount and to get your room grouped with everyone else’s. I’ll be DJing in the Amigo Room Sunday night and poolside Monday afternoon. If your not sure about how much fun you’ll have just ask anyone that was there last year. Middle of the night pool parties and fireside sing alongs is just a start. This is one extended weekend you don’t wanna miss!

PS, if you ever wanna hear me DJ locally I’m at Jinx (232 NW 12th) every friday 4-7 for happy hour and once a month at Jade lounge (24th and SE Ankeny). Both places have a good atmosphere and great food with, of course, perfect music.

xx
