August 1st – 7th: The Great Outdoors
Strangers and Liars had an absolute blast playing Chaffee’s Gathering this past weekend! Fingers crossed that we’ll be able to get back in on that next year. Here’s a video our very own Russ Straub put together of us performing one of our newer songs, “The Price You Pay” at the show. The Price You…

July 25th – 31st: The Gathering
Wrapping up a splendid vacation in Huron, Ohio. Always hard to come back from that, but the good news is there’s some great stuff waiting back home for us. Another great Songwriter Sunset lined up tonight, featuring Scarlet Ledbetter front man Kieth Wilson, as well as Pittsburgh singer songwriter Ben Valasek. After that, this weekend…

July 18th – 24th: Beach Reach
Now we’re into what summer is all about. Some INTENSE heat folks. And the timing couldn’t be better. Tonight (July 18th) is another edition of the Songwriter Sunset, featuring friend and NWPA songwriter staple, Mike Rhodes, along with a newcomer, performing on keyboard and ukulele, Colette Bone. Groovy, no? After that, I got the rest…

July 11th – 17th: Stay The Course, Of Course
If you haven’t figured it out by now, chances are if it’s summer and you’re wondering where to find, check The Edinboro Lake Resort first. Tonight (11th) we have our continuing Songwriter Sunset, this week featuring Jerry Gaff and Ernest Whaley, two old friends and excellent songwriters. This will be Jerry’s second year, while Ernest…

Steel City Scene Stealing
Just a little glimpse of our show in Pittsburgh on June 29th. One of our songs on the soon to be recorded list, “What’s In a Name”. Big thank you again to Howlers for having down to play, as well as to all the folks who came out to the show!

July 4th – 10th: Fourth of July, With Liberty and Jamming for All
Happy Birthday America! You don’t look a day over 200, sincerely. To celebrate, as I don’t have anything on hand that needs exploding, I intend to play quite a bit of music. So start stretching, fingers. We got work to do. Tonight (Thursday) I will be hosting The Songwriter Sunset at the Lake Resort as…

June 27th – July 3rd: The Calm Before the (Strangers and Liars) Storm
Just get this out of the way: Tom Petty and Heartbreakers were phenomenal. World’s were rocked. Particularly, mine. Moving on. You may have noticed a lack of activity from the Strangers and Liars world as of late. June ended up being a bit of a hiatus for us, with the band members off getting their…

June 20th – 26th: The Man, The Myth, The Heartbreaker
This week is full of excitement. This week’s Songwriter Sunset (featuring Tony Kellogg and Sean Patrick) is supposed to have excellent weather, and with those two playing, it’s bound to be brilliant. Sadly, I myself will be unable to attend. My hosting responsibilities for the night will be passed on to the Godfather of Erie…

June 13th – 19th: The War on Weather
Perhaps I was just spoiled by last year, it being a particularly dry and hot summer (a perfect combination for playing an outdoor venue), but man this rain we had through May and June is really starting to irk me. We’ve already had to cancel and reschedule two Songwriter Sunsets this season, and if the…

June 6th – 12th: Doctor’s Orders
This weekend will be spent working with I suppose would be called an old-new band, as opposed to a new-old band. They have been in existence for awhile, they’ve just been on hiatus and are now coming back. I feel like “new-old band” sounds like it has more to do with their age. Anyway, Dr. Joe, a…
