We’d like to thank everyone who made it out to the Troubadour in West Hollywood Wednesday night for our charity benefit for L.A.’s Friendly House. It was a crazy, fun night dedicated to recognizing and supporting one of the oldest treatment centers in the country for women recovering from alcohol and drug abuse. Thanks to those of who you who bought tickets and participated in the silent auction, we were able to help raise $40,000 for the organization. We had an amazing night and hope you did, too.

The night also featured our friends Aushua, who played an awesome set. We urge you all to check out their music.

This Saturday, January 30th, we’ll be playing a special concert with the Louisville Orchestra at the beautiful Whitney Hall at the Kentucky Center for the Performing Arts, as part of their BB&T Strings Attached series. We’ve been busy these past couple of weeks adapting our songs for an orchestral performance, and we can’t wait to perform them. We hope you can join us.

Also on the bill are Tucson’s own Calexico.

It’s been an amazing one so far, filled with lots of jumping, screaming, sweatiness, and boozy nighttime wanderings.. Thanks so much to all those who came out and made this tour such a memorable one. We’ve been having loads of fun in all these cities and enjoyed meeting all of you. It’s been especially nice seeing so many familiar faces speckling the crowds.

Also, our good friends and tour buddies The Henry Clay People and Red Cortez have been putting on some truly inspiring performances at all these shows. If you haven’t seen them yet, make sure you come early to catch them. If you have, you know exactly what we’re talking about..
