Come on down to Wunderbar Nov 7, 2009 for a fundraising event. Proceeds go to provide beds for the parents of sick children. The band Aroots Bizarre have invited me to join them for this event. You will be grooving so hard you won’t know what to do with yourself. Be prepared to wake up SORE after a night of dancing and laughing and amazing musicianship. These dudes have being playing together for a while now and their sound just keeps getting better and better. They Rocked it on Main Stage @ The North Country Fair this year and are hittin up fairs and festivals all summer! Expect a night of hop’n tunes with a Eastern European flair.
