We recently sat down in the studio with Mike Guzzo to record episode #126 of Crumbs Cafe. It was our 3rd time on Crumbs Cafe (see also episodes #18 and #66) and we broke out some newer songs that will likely be appearing on the next Red Haired Strangers studio album. Guzzo has done so much with Crumbs to “raise the awareness of the local music scene.“ We’re lucky to have such as resource around here. He’s still going strong & is on his 10th season of supporting and promoting local music of all kinds. Thank you, Guzzo!

Rick Morse (Pedal Steel and Dobro) and his Sweater/Blazer combo were featured this week in a blast from the past on local music website www.nippertown.org. Thank goodness he left the leg warmers at home.
