Sunday September 6th, we join Eddie D and The Guarantee for a wonderful evening of original indie music at Lucky! We’ll be soloing and scatting with Eddie D on his song “High Temperature,” and Eddie will be joining us on our song “Followcat.” Check our YouTube Shorts or Instagram Reels for a sneak preview from rehearsal with a lovely three part harmony.
Lucky is a friendly bar and community event space featuring seasonal cocktails and a backyard garden, located in downtown New York City.
Tommorrow we’re seeing double, and playing our hearts out in two cool venues. Not one, but TWO big shows on Saturday 8/29. Join us in the afternoon and evening! We’re playing Culture Lab in LIC with Yes Cats, Riko and Whaler Collective, and Strangely Enough… then riding high to Espresso 77 for another shining solo show. One day, two wonderful places, and so much music!

The NPR Tiny Desk Contest features independent music artists and is a cool showcase of songwriting, and desks! The Repressions desk is floating among the stars behind them, and very tiny.
