THANKS to everyone who came out to support Candye Kane at the benefit on July 23rd!!
If you are in Los Angeles during the Labor Day Weekend, please check out this other benefit, The Dog and Pony Show. Three days with an amazing all-star line-up. Please support western soul singer Chris Gaffney, superb guitarist Duane Jarvis, blues diva Candye Kane, and psycho-billy hot-rodder Drac Conley. All four of our friends/musicians were diagnosed with different forms of cancer and need our help to deal the expense of their various treatments.
