The Sleeping Angels Foundation is holding it’s first ever music fest at Doc Watson’s next Saturday. If you recall, Sleeping Angels is the fund my brother’s family started up after the death of his son, Hunter James, from SIDS. The fund helps pay funeral expenses for children who have met similar circumstances and for families who are stretched to make ends meet.
My band – My Brother’s Keeper – will be among the eight playing that night. What? Didn’t know I had a band? The music you’ve heard on this site gets transformed radically when played in the context of a band and I prefer it that way. It’s been hard finding the right combination of people to get something going, but I know this group is building something. The name is more than a metaphor.
Last week we went in the studio for the first time and recorded a song that will be played on Loud and Local, 94 WYSP, between 10 and 11PM tonight. Dante and Steven, my brother and my best friend, will be there to talk about the band and the upcoming show.
I?d love to hear what you think, but more important, I?d love to see you at the Music Fest next week.
