Happy August, MoJa Friends!!!

How has the summer gone by so fast?  It’s not quite over in our minds yet!!!

We had a blast at FloydFest’s 10th Anniversary this past weekend.  We only played one set this year, but it was a set to remember for sure, although we did indeed have power this year!  We played opposite of Old Crow Medicine Show on the Main stage and their big sound carried over to the stage we were on, so in between songs we’d try and play along with their tunes ;) 

Earlier in the day we met Whit Wright (Pedal Steel) from the band American Aquarium and his friend Rachel.  They were kind enough to come to check out our set over Old Crow’s and Rachel wrote a really nice re-cap of her own on her blog.  Check it out here: “Rach in the Real World.”

We’re hoping some video will come soon, but photo above is a cool shot taken by Gary Reckard.
