JERI VERDI AND HER HEAVY FRIENDS:
A confederation of invited friends sitting in who usually play in other bands. We love seeing these guys play in their own bands but also love playing a spontaneous show with them. The line-up changes from show to show. Not an open mic, all Heavy Friends are invited in advance!
See blogs for all HEAVY FRIENDS members.
