Sing-alongs, jam fests, and an all-around ‘sweet’ time w/ Ben, Darren, Seth, and the acoustic EHB

Howdy everyone,

We all had an awesome time last night at Sweetwater Cafe in Boston with Ben Carter, Darren Hawe, Seth McFadyen, and a surprise acoustic appearance by The Eagle Hill Band. Everyone was dancing and singing along to some great chunes played by all. I guess I don’t have much else to write about it, except that it was wicked fun. Check out the photos!

Peace,

Jon

Seth McFadyen is accompanied by Jon and Phil of the Eagle Hill Band (bass and djembe), along with Ben Carter and Darren Hawe for a set-closing rendition of "The General" by Dispatch.

Ben Carter preps for a record, rocks Sweetwater Feb. 6 w/ a new face and maybe an EHB…

Happy Friday everyone,

Tomorrow’s show (2/6/2010) at Sweetwater Cafe in Boston with Ben Carter, Darren Hawe, and Seth McFadyen is going to be a great one. We’ve even heard there might be an acoustic cameo from the Eagle Hill Band.

The folk-poppy stylings of Ben, Darren, and Seth are sure to get cozy downstairs of Sweetwater singing along tomorrow night, and you definitely want to be part of the show. It’s 21+ with a $5 cover, so if you can make it, do what Ernie Boch Jr. says and come on down! (awkward beckoning wave here)

In related news, Ben Carter will be recording and putting out an acoustic EP with a little help from Brewster Productions – we’re really excited about it, and you can bet he’ll be testing out some cool new stuff at the show. Ben and Darren rocked Club Passim in Cambridge the other night, and Ben was caught working on a song (see the photo) – so I’ll say it one more time: Don’t miss the show!

See you in Boston. Keep it real.
