MRG 2006 World Tour Continues
Just back from Folk Alliance in Austin. Kudos to the new management, headed by Louis J. Meyers (formerly of SXSW). The show was well run & well attended. The music, as always, was incredible. And our new & improved Atlas Tonic was a hit.

If you missed us last month in Austin, we'll be back for SXSW, March 16-19, but first, we'll be hobnobbing with our neighbors to the North. Look for us March 1-4 at Canadian Music Week in Toronto. Stop by for special discounts for The Musician's Atlas (print & online) and samples of our famous, home-brewed Atlas Tonic.
