Check out our feature piece on KUT!

A candlelit dining room afterhours. Blueberry pancakes. Three local musicians with one major thing in common: they were all either supporters or employees of Bouldin Creek Cafe.

I'd been talking to the owner of Bouldin Creek Cafe, Leslie Martin, for several months about throwing a guerilla style show in the middle of the night. She dug the idea, thankfully, and Adam and I agreed to make it our first official GorillaManse show after his return.

Three musicians played that night: Ralph White (Precious Blood), Adam Kobetich (Susquehanna Hat Company) and Shakey Graves.

It stormed like crazy. It was a pretty amazing thunderstorm, honestly. In the recordings from that night's sets you can hear the rain through the open windows and an occasional clap of thunder.

We had no idea that KUT had arrived with recording equipment and the intention of creating a story around the show. Big thanks to Haley Howle and Texas Music Matters for a great piece about GorillaManse and our good friend, Shakey Graves.

We hope you'll check out the show, 'cuz it's pretty great. Click "download". We're at the 27 minute mark.
