A Note From Dave Mccracken:

Im playing the Michael Arnones Crawfish Festival May 30th and 31st in Augusta NJ.  I have been told for a decade that New Jersey includes some gorgeous country and although Ive been through the state a dozen times, and seen Newark and witnessed the drive to Newark from everywhere, while trusting the state is beautiful I have never seen it.  I have been told traveling to this festival in Augusta will show me this ellusive New Jersey country side.  In additon to Donna the Buffalo this festival features The Funky Meters, Tab Benoit, The Radiators, Allen Tousaint, Raliroad Earth and many more.  Mucho funno.
 
After a few days off I'll be at Wakarusa (June 5) in Lawrence KS playing 2 sets with Donna the Buffalo and a late night Thursday set with Everyone Orchestra - the improvisational all star group featuring many folks pulled from the amazing festival line up which includes: Flaming Lips, Emmylou Harris, Ben Folds, Mickey Hart band, Leftover Salmon, David Grisman, Galactic, Porter Batiste Stoltz, Ivan Neville's Dumpstafunk, Arrested Development, The Avett Bros and some 40 or 50 more acts.  Loads of fun.
 
Pass this on to anyone in the area. 
 
Also Donna the Buffalos new record, Silverlined, comes out July 8 on Sugar Hill records.
 
See you soon!
