The Brooks & Baker Band! We're playing tomorrow (Saturday) 7:30 - 10:30 at the Archestratus Grill in Clinton; next Saturday the 12th at the Alumni House on Hwy 51 in Ridgeland!
I'll probably sing My Old Kentucky Home tomorrow and get all choked up ...

8. I'm the guitar/banjo/dobro player and halft the time lead singer |
|
Not to be confused with the OTHER guitar/banjo player and other half the time lead singer ...
We do "unexpected bluegrass" (Beatles, Elvis, Skynyrd) along with some straight-up bluegrass, blues, acoustic rock, etc.
Come out! The Alumni House will be great; it's our first gig there and I want to have a good crowd. See ya there!
