Livin in these tryin’ times

Thanks all who turned out to the last musical event we did at Café Urbano, Chris Cain Band turned it out with a wonderful show before we went back home and are living in the Quarantine Blues era. Chris is simply one of the best Blues guitarists alive today writing, singing and touring. We had a good crowd listening to some great music before returning to the new norm. I and others have booked a beautiful lineup for live music for the downtown for April but most of the shows will need to be rescheduled to be on the safe side and take care of business with health concerns arising currently . So in the mean time please self-quarantine, stay healthy and remember this too shall pass. And in the mean time PLEASE GET YOUR FLU SHOT.

Blue Monday Party invitational jam now will be one hold until this thing dies down and it is safe to come together once again. We will continue every 2nd and 4th Monday of the month with the Blue Monday Band with special guests. The house Band features: Johnny Valdes Guitar, Dave Hawks Drums, Conrad Johnson & John Adey Bass, horn section Jamie Dubberly Bone, Kevin Marin Trumpet, John Burt Sax, Dave Dow & Eric Benson Keys and Pat Governor Hammond Organ.

All the best, peace out! Eric Benson, cell 209- 918-7033, email; Mbenson@fire2wire.com<mailto:Mbenson@fire2wire.com>.
