Gigs this weekend (March 30th & 31st)

We are pumped to be playing two gigs this weekend!

This Friday the 30th we will be playing at a fundraiser for the 10th anniversary of the Ragamuffin Project. The proceeds from this fundraising event will go to support children, young people who suffer from trauma and psychological distress. This organization does great work in the field of arts therapy and also has an amazing space. Come check it out! Information on the event can be found here.

On Saturday the 31st at 9pm sharp we will be playing our first gig at Memphis. We will just be playing one set before their rocking house band takes the stage. Get there early because we’ll be done by 10:30 and we promise to have one super energetic set planned for all y’all.
