Squash Blossom Boys

Howdy folks!

We have recently lost our bass player (Peter Lisignoli) to higher education. We are very proud to say Peter has been accepted to the masters program at Duke University! We have been friends with Pete since we were children and will miss his wit, comradeship, hairiness and that loud thump he is known for!

With that said we welcome Maren Hatch to this group of smelly boys! She (yes I said SHE) is a UNM graduate in Jazz Studies and sure does know how to play! Come out to the next show and see for yourself… you won’t be disappointed.

We’ve got a last minute gig at Nob Hill Bar n’ Grill tonight, July 21st at 8pm. Come get your groove and/or hoedown on!

Come to the first annual Pickin’ in the Vines at Casa Rodeña this weekend, July 9th and 10th. Due to a schedule change the Squashies will be playing Sunday instead of Saturday at Casa Rodeña’s “Pickin’ in the Vines.” Hope to see you there! Also, check out the Squashies’ bass player, Peter, thump the Bull Fiddle with the Duke City Swampcoolers.

The boys are beginning a torrent of bluegrass performances right in their hometown of Albuquerque NM. Thursday night at the Kimo Theatre, then Friday night at the Cowgirl Cafe in Santa Fe (Lets see how rowdy you Santa Feans can get), followed by Kip’s Bar and Grill in Pagosa Springs Saturday. That’s not all folks, because we’re playing in the Conejos River Valley for Sunday and Monday for the Fourth of July celebration of the new decade, century, and millennium. Come join the Squash Blossom Boys at the Rocky Mountain Lodge for some freedom lovin’ Fourth of July fun.

Getting stoked to come out and play for R2R! Going to have SBB shirts ready for tie dyeing. Also picking up a few Marble kegs before we head up. I feel like this is going to be a killer weekend!
