“Friends of Tom”, a local band with national exposure, will be holding a CD Release Party on Friday, March 13, for their recently completed CD, entitled “FoBluCo”.  The CD is a compilation of 11 original songs along with a kicked up version of “House of the Rising Sun”.

Their style has been praised as “pure Americana, with a pinch of backwoods, a smidgen of back-porch, a dash of delta with sprinkles of twang.   It is business as usual to hear foot stomping and hoots from the audience as “Friends of Tom” kicks their shows into high gear.” 

The general public is invited to attend the CD release party which begins at 8:30 p.m. at Grumpy’s Bar-B-Que Roadhouse, 3000 Mauch Chunk Road, Mechanicsville, PA (610-769-4600). There will be a light finger food buffet and CDs available.

Prior to the release party, “Friends of Tom” will be interviewed and featured in a live performance broadcast on WLXV, 90.3 on Friday, March 13, 2009 @ 1:00 pm.   Steam it live at www.wxlv.org
