"Music washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life."
- Berthold Auerbach
Black Friday blackens the soul, or at the very least it makes it dusty...so we decided to fight dust with music and had our very own Green/Small Business Saturday at Sisters of Sound Record Store! There was tons of great music, discounts on vinyl, and new releases. My band Philosophy of Lions performed with several of our closest friends (Fret Highway Music, Leigh, Grateful Dudes, and Sally Vee) and good times were had by all. We debuted two originals and two covers and performed for the first time with our expanded lineup! Thank you so much to everyone who made it out, and we hope to see the rest of you next time!
