Coming up this week…

The Cleveland Music Club – CMC Jam happens every Tuesday at Bullfrog’s Sports Cafe (33137 Center Ridge Rd., N. Ridgeville, 8:30 – 12:30). This week’s guest hosts are Becky BoydMike Dixon and Tim Hamman! Our sponsor each and every week is Dirty Town Guitar and Amps (15230 Madison Ave. Lakewood)! Full backline (two guitar amps, bass amp, SONOR DRUMS and PA) is provided, so bring your favorite axe, sticks or just your party attitude and dancin’ shoes and come join the fun!

This Saturday, Shady Drive returns to Union House Bar and Restaurant (2713 Brookpark Rd., Parma, 9pm – 1am). They have a great menu, so come early for dinner (try the pierogis!) and stay for the music! Our last outing there drew a great crowd and was an awesome night, so c’mon out and let’s do it again!

As always, you can pick up a copy of Shady Drive’s CD, “Darker Shade Of Blue” at all of our live shows, on Amazon, CDBaby or iTunes!

You can hear us often, along with other blues artists on http://www.bluesmusicfan.com

That’s all for this week. We’ll talk soon…
