BC-Suga Folk we had such a fab experience the first time, that we decided to schedule another “Dazzle/Blisluth Pt. Two” listening party for this Sunday, Jan 26 at 8:30pm EST.
We’d like to send a caramelized “thank you” to all those who riffed, grooved and moved with us for the first listening party. We look forward to reprising that funkified fresh vibe when we run it back this Sunday.
In the meantime and in between time … please let your people know. Cheers!
Celebrating the 20th anniversary of If You Can’t Dazzle Them With Your Brilliance, Then Baffle Them With Your Blisluth (2005), —which featured live performances from Bordeaux, FR, San Sebastián, SP, and NYC—we present Part Two, featuring live performances from Detroit, MI, and Lebanon, OH. (Sweetened by the mixing & mastering hands of Inna Most and V. Jeffrey Smith).
On a day guaranteed to be filled with Blisluth and Dazzle, we cordially invite you to join us for a digital listening party at 5pm EST on January 20.
Bandcamp CD & Digital Sales begin on February 7
Presales are live & include a sneak peek of the first tack.
