Mo Egeston's Music Updates- Copia and Lola this weekend
Greetings,
Had a blast with Brothers Lazaroff this past weekend in Austin. As well as the usual Brothers magic we had the pleasure of some great Austin guest musicians including Timmy Campbell on percussion and the incomparable Lauren Gurgiolo on a multitude of guitar like instruments. Our Jo's brunch set even featured a guest violin appearance by the one and only Ruby Jane. At one time she was known as a child prodigy. These days...as a teen- she's a total pro. Quite the treat all around.
And yes, there is a rumor going around that I attempted to dance the 2 step in an Austin dance hall. What's that slogan? What happens in Austin...
This weekend is full of good music. On Friday October 29 the Soul Alliance Trio featuring CocoSoul makes its debut at Copia Urban Winery. We'll be doing sets of Disco, Club Classics, Acid Jazz and House from 8-11 PM.
This Saturday October 30 its time to Celebrate the Groove with a special Halloween show at Lola. For this Halloween party mo E All-Stars will be joining a roster of house DJs to celebrate the birthday of DJ Stacy Kidd. We'll be doing live house, breaks and drum and bass in the Absinthe Bar along with a rotating cast of DJs including Jen Ha, Vinyl Bitchie, Buddah and Alexis Tucci. 2 rooms of music all night long.
The weekend concludes with the return of the Soul Alliance Trio to Lola for brunch. 11-2- no cover and kids are always welcome.
Coming Soon:
Brothers Lazaroff CD release at Lola on Nov. 12
