Hey all you Coyotes and Coyotettes, WHEW! Summer 2011 has been been a great season so far for Coyote Kings w/Mush, with awesome opportunities to play for you, including Untapped Blues & Brews Fest, Sunbanks R&B Fest, Thunder On The Island in Kennewick, & Ritzville Blues Brews & Bar-B-Qs. We've been working feverishly on our forthcoming album "Move," AND we entered the preliminaries held at Untapped for the competition to be the WBS representatives at The International Blues Challenge in Memphis and... WE WON! (More on this below.) A great big shout goes out to all our friends we've had a chance to party with so far! With a week off, we're catching our breath, writing this update, and getting ready to kick off the second (and even busier) half of the Summer. It starts with "The Boogie On the Mountain," July 30th up on Weston Mountain, OR, with our friends "The Tukanon Band" and "White City Lights!" Now that's gonna be a LARGE time! In August we'll be hittin' the road to The Big Sky Blues Festival in Noxon MT, The Blues & Seafood Festival in Il Waco on the Washington coast, & The Taste of Music Festival in Snohomish, WA, & at Thomas O'Neil Cellars. At the TOM Fest we'll compete in the WA St finals for the chance to be sent to Memphis to the IBC! Inbetween we'll again be feverishly working on the new "Move" CD! Yes, we'll make a LARGE announcement when it's ready! In September we're looking forward to The Annual Grape Stomping Festival at Basil Cellars & The Three Rivers Concert Series, both in Walla Walla, the "infamous" Sausage Festival in Richland, & the Downtown Walla Walla Summer Concert Series! Please click on our "Shows" button for dates & more info. So... As you can see, we're having a LARGE Summer so far and an even LARGER one to come. Coyote Kings w/Mush hope to see YOU soon! We love you very much! CK/w M
