August 9 email newsletter

Friends,

We're excited about our upcoming first-ever performance at World Cafe Live (www.worldcafelive.com) in Philadelphia. We have heard nothing but raves about this club, and we're hoping that many of you will plan to be with us on Friday, August 18. Opening the 7:30 pm show will be Vinyl Shockley (http://store.itsaboutmusic.com/vinylshockley.html). So wear your dancing shoes and come prepared for a great night of music!

We've been having a great summer of gigs, performing songs from our new CD, East End Avenue, which is available online at www.billyprice.com/cds.html. We've been gratified by all the positive reviews that the CD has been receiving so far--you can read them at www.billyprice.com/reviews.html.

Here are some excerpts from a review by Thomas Cullen III in BluesRag, the newsletter of the Baltimore Blues Society:

"East End Avenue is, by far, his best album for a number of reasons...Not only is Price in excellent voice throughout, crooning and hollering with equal aplomb, his current band is his best since the much beloved Keystone Rhythm Band of the 1980s...These impeccably crafted songs are performed with fervor, panache, and scintillating soul...East End Avenue succeeds on every level and is Billy Price’s finest moment on record. Not only is it an essential purchase for his fans, it’s also a great introduction for those unfamiliar with the East Coast King of Blue-Eyed Soul."

Damn! I'll take that any day!

So please put us on your entertainment calendar for Friday, August 18 and help us build a fire in Philadelphia, PA. You can buy tickets in advance at http://tickets.worldcafelive.com/eventperformances.asp?evt=1369. If you can't make it to Philly on the 18th, our full schedule is always up to date online at www.billyprice.schedule.html.

Soulfully yours,
Billy Price
