The LIVE RECORD will be recorded on New Year's Day (1/1/10), and 1/2/10, at the club where we got our start, the Lizard Lounge in Cambridge, MA. Tickets are still available, but it's a very small venue, so we urge you to get them now (last minute Christmas gift anyone?) We will be recording a full length album, culled from the performances over these two days. Wouldn't it be great to say you were then when?
You can buy tickets here for the January 1 & 2 shows.

Sarah's Got Soul - New Haven Advocate
Great article by By James Velvet
"They play guitars (Sarah Borges and Lyle Brewer), bass (Binky), and drums (Rob Dulaney), and, as noted, they rock like crazy.
Sarah sings. And that's the key.
Among the many things that make for a good singer, personality is tops. Tone, pitch, phrasing, all the "musical" values come into play, but every one of them is colored by the temperament and emotional makeup of the singer. When it all works out right, it's called soul.
And Sarah's got it."
