Witzend Recording Studio: Playing out live

Playing out live - Empire Blues

I don't usually post about my band Empire Blues, but last weekend we played 3 shows at the Blues At Bridgetown festival. Great fun, and received very well by the large crowds. I did suffer a little festival throat by the Sunday show but I just sounded more Bluesy LOL.
