We missed the Mardi Gras Jazz Cruisers last month but it sounds like you guys had a great time! We had fun too with the Reynolds Brothers and Bryan Shaw - and Chloe Feoranzo showed up with her clarinet so it was a real party!

This month we'll have our annual St. Patrick's Day party - and since the day actually lands on a Wednesday this year I'll remind everyone to wear green so you don't get pinched. We will have some special guests for the occasion: Woody is will be there and is working on a special trick for the evening. And we will also be joined by a good friend of mine who is a Celtic Harpist! Erika Stoner and I went to Indiana University together where she learned to play the harp. She'll be singing and playing some traditional Celtic songs, and CJ and I may try and play a few songs with her as well! This is a great opportunity to hear what a sousaphone / banjo / harp trio sounds like and I for one can't wait!

If you can't make the St. Pat's party, try and come the previous week when we will have as guests the Long Beach Men's Barbershop Chorus. We've been trying to get them to come and sing for us and we're glad they can make it on the 10th! I know they'll be fun and the sing-along numbers will sound extra good!

See you at the Cafe!
- Katie

ps - There's also a good chance we'll have a special surprise guest on Wednesday March 3rd but I don't want to jinx it. If you look on my calendar page and see who I'm playing with earlier in the day, maybe you can figure it out!!

This Just In!!
We're On The Small Screen!

Last week, Fred Harshbarger came by with several cameras and a small crew. He made a very nice video of CJ and me performing at Curley's and I think it really captures the feel of the place.

You can view the video to the left, and also see other things he's done at his website: www.wxyzvideos.com

ENJOY!
