Swing A Cat!

The hottest week of a cool New England summer. I’m savoring the gulf stream mix, keeping my feet in the water, on an island for a few days.

Swing a Cat! has been doing a lot of evening town concerts this summer, all over NH and some in Maine. What a blast it’s been, and we’ve been getting some excellent response. It’s great fun to sing and play the old tunes, we’re working hard on those Boswell tunes, which are so hard, so fun to sing. Thanks to all our fans…!!
you can find a little more on that band here:

Being in love with all kinds of sound, I loved this next website: four members of the thrush family, their familiar songs, then – hear them slowed down. What incredible skill and fascinating patterns. Some are like whale song. Makes you think.

Been reading great murder mysteries, my mother in law has an amazing collection of old paperbacks from the 50s:

Fish or Cut Bait by Gardner Erle Stanley (writing As AA Fair)
Poor Harriet by Elizabeth Fenwick

    hi doug… swing a cat doesn’t have any gigs lined up for south or west, but rumblestrip is headed to FLA in Jan, and CA in Feb for some dance weekends. It’s gonna be nice to get out of the frosty regions at that time of year… where are you living?
