Summer Impressions 2009, Festivals Italy and Germany

We've had a great summer so far, some great concerts with our quintet, a 3 day engagement at the Folkest Festival in Friuli (NE) Italy and in Fiumeretta (Ameglia) Liguria, as well as 2 nights at Weingut Kloster Marienthal (Rheinland-Pfalz), Germany. Special thanks to Andrea del'Savero, the organizer of Folkest, Alessio Ambrosi from Armadillo Club in Sarzana, Italy and Friedhelm and MaryJo Pankowski (Marienthal engagement) for having us back to play for you. We're off Aug. 8-19 to play on the cruise ship MS Delphin to England, Ireland and Scotland. More news to come.
