Prepping for the Hey Tiger Reunion Show

damien and wayne try to remember the songs

Rehearsals have begun for the Hey Tiger Reunion show at Maxwells. We’re getting excited to play one last time before this iconic NJ music venue closes its doors. Also, we’ve just posted our three records – one full-length and two EPs – up on YouTube as playlists so that you can stream them. I’ve embedded them below. Enjoy!

Hey Tiger Reunites for One Last Show at Maxwells

Hey Tiger Reunion Show 6-26-13

We couldn’t let Maxwells close without reuniting for one more show. My former band, Hey Tiger, has decided to reunite to play Maxwells one last time before this iconic NJ venue closes its doors. I have so many great memories tied to this venue – the band’s very first show, every CD release party, and countless other performances. We can’t wait to pay tribute and play there one last time!

Weds 6/26. Maxwells. Hoboken, NJ. 7:30pm. I hope you can be there.

Saturday, May 18th
Temple of the Kitty (with Christina Alessi and Jonathan Andrew)
Northern Soul
557 First Street
Hoboken, NJ 07030
8pm

Christina, Jonathan, and I will perform together at Northern Soul for the third time this year. What began as a one-time songwriter’s collaborative has turned into a semi-regular gig.

Here’s the basic gist. The three of us perform each other’s songs as a trio. We throw in a few covers, too. And for the first time, we’ve decided to give this little project a name. So – at least for this show – we will be called Temple of the Kitty. Stop by on Saturday to find out why.

Hope to see you there!
