We are letting all our Charleston friends know that we are playing this Thursday, 8/14, at The Pourhouse, on the deck from 6-9pm. It's early and it's free so come have a drink and enjoy some acoustic soul. Peace...
Yes, I'm in Charleston! I would love to see you! I'm sure you have a lot of plans for this weekend, so maybe when the holiday fare simmers down, we can meet up for a glass of wine or something. Are you downtown?
