This weekend, we made two fabulous appearances in Pittsburgh, Pa.  On Friday night, we played at Howler’s Coyote Cafe, where a fantastic night was enjoyed by all, thanks to Paul Luc, Delicious Pastries, Jo (Howler’s booking manager), and a great array of friends and fans taking in the evening.  Perhaps someone else would like to elaborate on the show, because I’d like to call your attention to something else.

Last summer, our friend-but-we-didn’t-know-him-at-the-time-of-writing Drew Cucuzza, wrote a  article in Pittsburgh Dish about GN,S.  He said ““A gorgeous, melodic album with songs that immediately draw you in; a kind of “just right” sound-production that most bands go their whole career without achieving… What they sound like is Good Night, States and they deserve to have other bands compared to them.”  To be honest, I want to cry when I read those words, because that’s what we’re trying to do here.

Well, on Saturday morning, our friend Jeff Baron (thanks, Jeff!) hosted us at the Saturday Light Brigade for a live acoustic on-air set.  Hopefully an audio version and pics/video will be coming to you soon.   Our host, Larry Berger, was a joy to speak to and be interviewed by.  At one point in the conversation, he paused, and tried to explain who he thought we sounded like…and he was stumped (in a good way).  He said that Good Night, States sounded like Good Night, States and that was the highest compliment an artist could hope to have.

It’s true, Larry - it’s a high compliment, and we appreciate it.  Thank you for having us, and thank you for listening.

Friends, we’re gearing up to make more songs that sound like Good Night, States.  Songs of hope in the midst of fear, joy in the midst of despair, and change-for-the-good in the midst of change-for-what-seems-like-bad.  Hope you’ll join us for the ride.
