Crane’s Hollywood Tavern – Saturday, January 9th, 8pm
Just booked a little solo gig in Hollywood for this Saturday January 9th. It’s part of a monthly songwriter series and my time slot is 8pm. $10 cover and Karen and I will be giving away free CD’s too. One of my New Year’s resolutions is to try and play a bit more live music in 2010! Don’t know much about this venue…but gotta start somewhere in lala land I suppose. Please spread the word if you have peeps in LA. New songs and album #6 in the works. Addy below.
Cranes is located between the Palladium and Henry Fonda at 1611 N El Centro Avenue, Los Angeles CA 90028 (between Sunset and Hollywood Blvds.)
Cheers!
KP
