July 5 email newsletter
Friends,
We're getting ready to bring the new music from our recently released CD, East End Avenue, along with all of your old favorites, to a gig near you (we hope) sometime this summer.
This coming weekend, we'll be traveling to North Carolina for gigs at the Cat's Cradle in Carrboro on Friday, July 7 and the Sunrise Theater in Southern Pines on Saturday, July 8. We'll be at the Ram's Head Tavern in Annapolis, MD on Saturday, July 15 for a CD release party (hurry--tickets are going fast), and we'll be in Eastern Pennsylvania in Reading, PA on Friday, July 21 and at the World Cafe Live in Philadelphia on Friday, August 18. For central Pennsylvanians, we'll be in Altoona, PA at Burgi's Roundhouse on Saturday, August 5.
We will also not be neglecting our hometown fans in Pittsburgh. See us with up-and-coming blues star Grace Potter at Hartwood Acres on Sunday, July 30; at the Rhythm House in Bridgeville on Saturday, August 26; or at a Friday noon concert downtown near the County Courthouse on Friday, August 11. You can also tune in to WYEP, 91.3 FM at noon on Tuesday, July 25, where we'll be performing live over the airwaves (WYEP has been all over East End Avenue, playing the title song and "Soul Sailin'," among others), or come to Borders in Monroeville on Sunday, July 23 and hear me and BP Band keyboard player Jimmy Britton do an unplugged set, sign autographs, and answer questions about the new CD or anything else.
For more information about any of these dates, please see our schedule page at www.billyprice.com/schedule.html.
Finally, here's what a reviewer at Amazon.com wrote about East End Avenue:
"Well, I've been waiting for this kind of top shelf original material (13 of the 14 songs) from Billy Price for a long time. Not that a majority of his previous output hasn't been worth hearing repeatedly, it has--the often incomparable southern soul rarities that he'd been singing since his college days in the late sixties and early seventies, the same material that he still performs. Now, with 'East End Avenue' he and his stellar band (man, give that drummer some!) have achieved parity with that vast collection of songs he has performed over the last tour decades."
For those who don't have it yet, East End Avenue is available at www.billyprice.com/cds.html. Thanks for reading, and we hope to see you sometime this summer!
Soulfully yours,
Billy Price
