The Looters at It’s 5 O’Clock Cafe
Well it’s been a while folks, and I apologize for neglecting my blog. I’ve recently moved and had a few big changes in my personal life, so it’s been hard to keep the blog rolling. My biggest announcement today is that my old band, The Looters, has gotten back together and we played our first show last weekend at It’s 5 O’Clock Cafe in Richmond Hill, Georgia. It happens to be one the coolest bars I’ve ever been to- a well kept secret that’s nonetheless always backed with a great bunch of people. The bar is on a dock on the Ogeechee river and features excellent artwork by Sandy of 606 Cafe fame, who owns the bar with her husband Peter. We’ll be playing there this weekend, too, if anyone is in the area who’d like to come on out. You can find it by following 144 through Richmond Hill and turning left on 144 Spur/Fort McAllister Rd. At the causeway he marina and bar will be on your left- if you reach the actually Fort, you’ve gone about a mile too far. Show starts at around 9:30 Friday night and lasts until….
Playing with me will be Kenny Savage on rhythm guitar and my brother Eric Layden on acoustic bass. These are also the main musicians for the upcoming “Yore” children’s music album, so you parents will get a sneak peek at the quality of musicianship you’ll be getting with those albums this November!
