It's been quite a long while since I've played the Ruby Room but I've always really liked the look and feel of the place. Sound system is good, and the stage is high enough so all sight lines are good. Gonna be doing a mix of cover tunes and originals, should be a fun set, and, best of all, I'll be joined by groovemeister Darryl Baker on percussion. Our set (part of a 5-band evening) will start at 8:30pm, don't be late! The event (which I've enjoyed playing in the past) is called Up The Stairs. Hope to see you there.
The entire lineup and schedule for the night: ♢ emilypemly (acoustic singer/songwriter, pop & bossa nova) ♢ Afrodyty (soul, R&B vocalist) ♢ Samm Bennett w/ Darryl Baker ♢ KABULO (4 piece alternative neo soul group) ♢ Robert Taira Wilson (alternative folk singer, songwriter) |

This will be the first time for the Baby to play Soul Dama, we're looking forward to a new venue. It's a very casual, *bar-like* bar located just a stone's throw from Asagaya station (JR Sobu line), on the 2nd floor of a building full of shops and bars and such. Very friendly place. We'll be bringing our usual stomping and rollicking bag of New Orleans second-line style music there, of course: tunes made famous by NOLA stalwarts like Professor Longhair, the Meters, Dr John and many others, plus our original numbers in the New Orleans spirit. Hoo nah NAY!
Open: 19:00 - Start: 19:30 Charge: ¥1500 + 1 order |

MON 6/20 : duo with Paul N Dorosh at Flying Teapot, Ekoda

This will be the first musical meeting between Paul and I, but I've heard his excellent playing of the oud on a few occasions in the past, and this promises to be a rewarding musical experience.
