LINKS AND FRIENDS

	Kristina Olsen Kristina is a long-time friend of ours who happens to be one of the most talented and creative singer/songwriters anywhere. We covered her passionate and livid song, How I Love this Tango, on our first CD.
	Larry Unger Larry is an incredible musician who has written over a thousand tunes of which nearly a hundred have been recorded by other bands including us. Our first CD has two of his tunes, The Dancer and Sylvi. We're planning to include two more on our second CD - The Schoenberg Rag and Blues for Dave.
	Chango Spasiuk To say that the music of this accordionist from Argentina has profoundly affected us is an understatement. His musicianship is astounding and his musical compositions are deep and moving. We regularly perform one of his tunes, Tristeza and plan to include it on our second CD.
	Patrice Haan Our percussionist, vocalist and mulit-instrumentalist Piper Heisig has known Patrice for years (Piper performed with Patrice's husband, Tony Marcus, in Cats and Jammers). Patrice is a talented songwriter and not too long ago passed a recording over to Piper of a song called Catching Your Breath. This song absolutely captures the mysterious and sometimes dark feelings one gets when comparing oneself to others. We relate. And we recorded. This song will be the title cut for our next CD, Catching Your Breath.
	Two Buck Chuck Check out Craig's latest project, "Two Buck Chuck" - You've experienced the wine, now experience the song. Craig (with assistance from Piper) has created a rockin, dancin tribute to Two Buck Chuck. Take advantage and sample this vintage!
	Tour of My Heart Brynn's latest CD " Tour of My Heart" is a beautiful collection of songs that are, as the title implies, very close to Brynn. Ina Davenport joins her on piano for a very romantic and passionate journey featuring classical, jazz and Broadway selections.
	Hot and Cool Orchestra "Hot and Cool Orchestra" (featuring Duane on accordion) is a San Luis Obispo group that plays a diverse variety of musical styles from gypsy jazz to zydeco, funky blues, latin, tangos and western swing. Visit the web site for more information about this hot (and cool) band.
	Cats and Jammers Piper was in "Cats and Jammers", which had a sixteen year run playing an array of acoustic music from hot swing to low down blues with style and panache.
