   About Fine Dining
Jerry Green was tapping woefully on his steel drum outside a small cabana in the Carribean when David and Doug, two offshore naval officers, heard his flawless sense of Latin rhythm, sad and gentle, as it floated across the warm tropical sunset. The sound was so soothing in fact that for a fleeting moment, David felt the first hint of relief from the Rickets he had acquired at sea. Immediately, the two sailors resolved to honorably discharge themselves from the armed services and start a band with their new friend. Unfortunately, although David had written many songs that had provided hours of entertainment for his rowdy shipmates, he had neither the confidence nor the stature to front a band all by himself. Then, like manna from heaven, the three comrades heard delicate plucking and a voice as sweet as honey coming from atop a nearby cliffside. Jerry immediately climbed this steep, jagged slope and by nightfall, the mysterious balladeer whose name was DeVille had christened the four men, Fine Dining. Before long, they were playing shows all over the Ohio countryside with mixed results. But as the band gelled and discovered a sound of their own, they were soon playing for crowds of ten or twenty men in the lascivious barrooms of Athens and Columbus. They recorded a charming EP in Andy Schreiber's attic and then released the acclaimed Debutantes and Dilettantes, recorded at 3 Elliott Studio with producer Josh Antonuccio (Southeast Engine, Cosigner) at the helm. Shortly afterward, Doug returned to his one true love, the sea. But the band pressed on, enlisting the services of a young gentleman named Zachary and preparing its best, most focused crop of songs yet. Then they broke up.

Hey Fine Dining, how are you? If you got a minute, we pulled over some new things fo you. We have this video up on our page that inspired the song we sing with it. The dance is pretty unreal, and worth seeing. Also, we now have an illustrated novella for sale. It comes with the album if you order it. It's a dark story, but there's some fire in it too. We think you'll like it.
Stop over if you get the chance, and if you like what we give for free, buy a copy of the album and novella. It would help us. Hope you're doing well out there.

We hope that all is well in your neck o' the woods as the spring arrives! We're doing just fine, as our new album "A Change of Venue" is finished and going to be released on April 4th! We hope that you will take a second (or ten) to preview some of the album at our Myspace page or at one of our upcoming shows.

Thanks, and best wishes!
