So yeah, pretty sweet – we already got confirmed for a date during CMJ. The CMJ Music Marathon happens every year around Halloween and is really the NYC equivalent of South by Southwest.
Whiskey Richard @ Crossroads in NJ, 2006
Our first show ever in NYC was at Lion’s Den (now Sullivan Music Hall) in the heart of the Village in August of 2006 (our homebase was Nashville in 2006 and were known as Whiskey Richard – get it??). We were road warriors that year and managed to pack the venue on our first try. The promoter dug the vibe and re-booked us for Halloween, opening for Papa Mali and as part of the 2006 CMJ Music Marathon.
