Sneak Peek! Folkus Series Launches this week
| To start off our season, we’re holding a launch party Thursday, November 7th, 2019 at Equator Coffee Roasters, to celebrate our season and to celebrate our wonderful sound man, Brendan Gawn. He never gets to mingle at shows because he’s working too hard. Brendan is an excellent sound person because he listens. He listens well because plays a mean bass. And he’ll be playing bass with the Brindled Cats, along with guitarist Rob McMurray. They may bring a few friends. Join us for a pint or a coffee and possibly a bite to eat! Folkus 2020 Launch Party Thursday, November 7th, 2019 Doors open 7pm; expect to end around 10pm |
