Description:
From the sounds of the honky tonks on a Saturday night to the sounds of the Eastern European shtetl to the sounds of the English music halls, singing and playing songs of unrequited love, songs of revenge, songs of whimsy, songs of drinkin', lovin', and folk heroes...
In short, SONGS OF WINTER AND CONSTRUCTION.
So wake up Ol' Blue, crack open a beer, and hit the open road with The Vermeers!
