Supper Songs with Mad Dog Blues!
Details
For May Supper Songs we welcome Mad Dog Blues!
International recording artist, Mad Dog Friedman, harmonica player, musical innovator and founder of many popular Colorado blues acts over the years including King Comfort, Harmonica Loowinski, Papa Juke, the Mojo Medicine Show & Blue Lightning, has put together an acoustic blues jam band with a unique blues style indigenous to Colorado in the 21st Century while still honoring his blues roots. We call this music Colorado Country Blues because it combines the “Colorado Sound” (jam grass) with traditional rural blues. The result is Mad Dog Blues, a coalition of top-notch, veteran musicians dedicated to exploring this new sound in both their song writing and performances. Along with Mad Dog Friedman on harmonica, Mad Dog Blues (5 piece band) includes Jeff "Bone Head " Becker (Hippie Buckaroos) on mandolin, Clark "The Champ" Chanslor (White Water Ramble) on stand-up bass, Sean "Rocket" Bennight (from St. Louis) on acoustic guitar and Mark "Kaz" Kaczorowski (Blues on the Lamb) on slide and acoustic guitar. We hope you enjoy our original “Colorado Country Blues” sound, a unique fusion of delta blues, bluegrass, honky-tonk, hokum and acoustic jam music.

6:30 Doors - Potluck-n-Pick
Bring enough beverages for your crew & maybe some to share.
If no time to cook, skip the chips! Some suggestions for easy stuff to being: some drinks to set out for share, take out wings, pizza....
If it's a struggle or time is too tight this time, it's okay to bring nothing but your appetite. But it's AWESOME when you make something to bring! Please respect other people's beverages - it's a community cooler but the beverages belong to the bringers :)
7:30ish - 9:30 Music!
With a short set break. Likely a chance to buy some merch from the atrist, bring some extra cash for that if you are interested!
Pick a bit after if there are folks that want to.
Please do feel free to organize!
9:30 - Help us get it straightened up a bit then head home.
Shelley works in the morning :)
Be kind ~ Be cool!
