Rowdy Country. Brooklyn's Best.
January 2012:
Happy New Year from IBJB!
We've got some exciting shows coming up despite the frigid winds of winter, and we're gonna do one more Americana Open Mic Night at The Shop in Williamsburg on Weds Jan. 18th before letting it hibernate for a few months. Come on out and sign up!
In other cool news, our own bass guru Jason Holt is booking and hosting a monthly event at The Shop called Barn Burner. As the name suggests, he's looking for the hottest of the local country scene to grace the stage there.
We're also currently promoting the recent release of the excellent CD sampler "This Is Brooklyn, Vol. 1" It features yours truly, along with 11 other super cool local groups doing it the right way. For info click here.
The good folks at Brooklyn Independent Television recently did a piece on the Brooklyn Country scene prominently featuring...I'll Be John Brown! Here's the online link, and special thanks to Lauren Moraski for thinking of us and shining a light on what a lot of us are trying to do up in here.
Our album is still available for download now on iTunes and Amazon, along with CDBaby if you want the physical disk.
Viva La Brooklyn Country!!!
