A Little Housekeeping
We are really pleased to have Dan, the Curator of the Library of Funk, joining us on guitar. His playing is awesome and the band is sounding better than ever, so check back here for some show dates we are in the midst of booking.
Accordingly, I've made some updates around the website to reflect our up-to-date status.
Have a great day now!

We'd like to welcome Nate D. to the Department. He was friends with our last guitarist Ed (who is kicking butt on his MS at Michigan), and fit right into the situation. We are excited to let Nate loose on the civilian public!
