Secondhand Sunday

Bio:

Tom and Brian both hail from Baltimore, MD. They were friends in Baltimore in 1989 and have re-united in Seattle 20 years later to make music together. They both write songs, play guitar, and dabble in various other stringed instruments. Brian had a band for three years in Seattle. The band was called Armadillo Borealis and can still be heard at www.armadilloborealis.com. Secondhand Sunday plays some of the same songs as they are all originals written by Brian. People who have played and sometimes still play with Secondhand Sunday include Paul Hutzler (lap steel), Chris Quirk (drums), Ed Hodge (bass), Jon Pontrello (banjo, accordion), Johnny Ramsdell (harmonica), Gar Hooker (bass), Taraji Belgacem (backing vocals) on the CD, "Previously Loved," and hopefully many more as the days go by. Marina Marioni did the artwork for the CD, "Previously Loved."
