TRAVELER’S BLUES PACKS HAMP & HARRY'S - THE HIGH NOTE (POP-UP GIG)
(Marietta, GA) — It was a last minute show, but word of mouth travels! Traveler’s Blues, the premier Atlanta-based tribute to Blues Traveler, played a pop-up gig at The High Note a few days before NYE. The venue reported a shear wave of interest and electrifying vibe - so much they had to bring in additional staff to manage the line of music lovers trailing down the stairs to the sidewalk in front of the establishment.
