We would like to thank our fans for all of the support over the years and although it sounds cliche we literally couldn't do it all without you. We had a great crowd for our performance at Bottle Rock and an awesome repsonse. Check out the size of the stage. (pictured above)
More pics to come and a DVD of our performance as well.
Thanks and see you soon
Exactly 4 days, or 96 hours, from this very moment we will be taking the CITI Stage at Bottle Rock Napa for our biggest show to date! Can't wait! ...In the mean time, can you find Girls & Boys in Rolling Stone mag???
Also, here's an awesome article from the North Bay Bohemian about the founders of Bottle Rock and the sequence of events leading to it's creation. We were lucky enough to have them drop our name right next to one of our favorite artists, Sharon Van Etten!http://www.bohemian.com/northbay/start-of-something-big/Content?oid=2423150&storyPage=1
Wonderfulness! Our heads and hearts are still reeling from our week of shows along the beautiful California coast beginning with two shows with the Mother Hips; first an energizing evening in Oakland at The New Parish which was followed by a glorious day in Pismo Beach at The Cliffs, all wrapped up with a trip back up to the bay to The Park Chalet in San Francisco and a strong finish opening for THE Joan Osborne! We are so grateful and humbled to be on this part of our journey and thank all of our friends, family, and finally, our fans, for every bit of encouragement, and ultimately, for listening. We are definitely moved, touched, and honored by the support.
This Thursday you can catch us in SLO at Luis Wine Bar for our monthly showcase. In case you don't know already, this place is awesome! Then, we're cruising back up to Nor Cal this weekend for a string of shows with some great bands at some new places! Friday night we're at Sprenger's Tap Room in Santa Rosa with new local act Central Station, Saturday we'll be joining forces with Baby Seal Club for our first show in Novato at Hopmonk Tavern, and then capping off the weekend at one of our favorite places on the planet, the one and only Toad in the Hole Pub for our monthly Sunday night show and a Cinco de Mayo celebracion! See you all soon!
We are so excited about this coming weekend and all of our amazing upcoming shows! We hope to see our fan-friends out and about! Here is our most recent newsletter outlining our current events.

A very happy spring to everyone! There is magic afoot! The Girls & Boys are stepping out with a skip in our step and are ready to rock!
In case you haven't heard by now, or just need a reminder, we've got some STELLAR shows coming up! First of the bunch, we'll be opening for California soul heroes The Mother Hips (www.motherhips.com/) twice in one weekend; Friday April 19th at The New Parish in Oakland, CA and Sunday April 21st at The Cliffs in Pismo Beach, CA. Following our weekend with the Hips, we'll be heading back up to the bay area opening for one of our favorite modern vocalists, Ms. Joan Osborne (www.joanosborne.com/), at one of our favorite venues, the Mystic Theatre in Petaluma, CA! A few weeks later we will be playing at the already legendary Bottle Rock Festival in Napa Valley Sunday May 12th (bottlerocknapavalley.com). We hope to see you all at one or every one of these events - we're sure you won't want to miss it!
In earlier news, we had an incredible experience opening for Charlie Parr for our very first show at the famous Hotel Utah in San Francisco last month. His style, presence and musicality was invigorating and ultra-inspiring. If you have a moment, take yourself back to another time and place and experience the one and only Charlie Parr http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XLOw-UOHbiE.

Hey kids! We're stayin' busy! We're looking forward to our return to Nor Cal this weekend for an evening show in Sebastopol at Aubergine After Dark with Rock Collection. The Rock Collection features Mark Karan (RatDog/Phil and Friends) on electric guitar, Dan “Lebo” Lebowitz (ALO) on acoustic guitar and pedal steel, Greg Anton (Zero) on drums, and Robin Sylvester (RatDog) on bass. We are super excited to be playing before such a prestigious lineup of musicians!
This has been an eventful year so far and we are making the most of our time. The band is busy rehearsing, writing, and refining our sound. Our current lineup will be featured at our upcoming shows at The New Parish in Oakland (4/19) and The Cliffs in Shell Beach (4/21) opening for The Mother Hips, complete with the always stellar addition of Mike Emerson on keys, and Nick Simmons on guitar. We think you will all be pleasantly surprised!
Hope to see you Girls & Boys soon!
