May newsletter from Vincent Cross

Thanks to Vincent Cross (left; photo by Todd Zimmer) in New York for his May newsletter, including 'thanks to all who hosted, supported, conversed and retorted' on his Californian tour. A video from the tour can be seen on the newsletter. There is much interest in the house concerts concept, and Vincent can be contacted about this by e-mail.

Vincent continues his interesting 'Tools of the trade' blog, exploring the relationship between songwriters and the instruments with which they compose, with an interview with David Rovics of Portland, Oregon.

He will also be taking part in a 'Eurograss in New York City' night on 12 July, featuring the fine Swiss band Mala & Fyrmoon, and Vincent with a full band (Larry Cook, bass; Billy Failing, 5-string banjo; Shane Kerwin, drums) playing music from his last album, A town called Normal. The show will be at the Jalopy Theater, 315 Columbia St, Brooklyn, NY 11231.
