The Stragglers are featured in this year's "Virtual Holiday Spectacular" from the Enosburgh Opera House. You'll hear the tail end of my original tune "Tell Me Why Now" (stay tuned for the release of that single) going into an arrangement that I put together of "Wayfaring Stranger." That tune gives Preston a chance to showcase the really cool vibe of his vintage Harmony archtop electric. It also features Rusty Charpentier with his always-tasty fiddle chops. It is the premier of Justin Bedell's newest bass acquisition as well - check out the lovely tone and vibe of that new Gold Tone "Micro Bass!" I can't wait to hear much more of that from him in the future. I fall more in love with my fretless Hartel "Levi Brown" every time I play it, you'll hear it thumping out the rhythm on that track.
Many other musical friends are featured as well - Enjoy!
