We had another rehearsal this weekend and it went very well. I really think you will enjoy what he adds to my songs. He moved here from Seattle a couple of years ago, plays around with various New York groups, and is the composer/arranger for String Power, a 12 piece string ensemble. I saw the group a couple of weeks ago at The Tea Lounge in Park Slope and they were fabulous.

I’ll be playing at Banjo Jim’s on Saturday April 25th @ 7pm sharp as part of a Honky Tonk Angels show. HTA is a monthly musical series hosted by Jamie Lyn of The Red Tail Hawks Band, taking place at various venues throughout NYC. Each evening of performances is comprised of female led groups and solo artists. Banjo Jim’s is located at the corner of 700 East 9th St and Avenue C in Manhattan. I’ll be joined on violin by Tom Swafford, a great player/composer/arranger and leader of String Power, a 12 piece string ensemble based in Brooklyn. As always, you can check out my music right here – Rachel Lee Walsh.
