the Jefferson Tugboat

Big thanks to everyone who came out to the launch last Friday. It was a big step for us and everything went off even better than expected.

I'll go into more detail in coming posts, but what better way to launch this blog than with coverage of the opening act?

Julia Narveson and Brad Levia (aka 'the Jefferson Tugboat') did a really fun set of retro (a la 1800s) music. Comments I heard were unanimously positive -- eg. "Their original song sounds as old as their covers!"

They tore it up with beautiful harmonies, acoustic guitar, washtub bass, banjo, and the infamous stealth kazoo (looks like a trombone, complete with moving but decorative slide).

Thanks to Carl for taking some video that night (as well as the photo above), including a short clip of 'the Jefferson Tugboat' -- check it out!
