DIY warm up show at mcteague's

Opening for Tom Conneely & Birds of Paradise in a packed house

Hardly Strictly Bluegrass weekend is my favorite weekend in San Francisco. Every year half a million people descend on the park for free live bluegrass music. It’s also two blocks from my apartment and dog & family friendly.

The Last Gray Wolf played a Hardly Strictly after-party on Saturday at McTeague’s Saloon in SF, opening for Tom Conneely & Birds of Paradise (one of my favorite bands in SF). It was a ton of fun, huge thank you to everyone who came out to support us. It was a much bigger turnout than we expected; we sold 54 tickets and had a ton of walk-ups; the owners said over 120 people came that night.
