Well, I hope you caught the Parlour Session with Tommy Malone, lead singer and guitar virtuoso of the Subdudes on Friday, November 21st from noon to 1pm, cuz it was a great one! Tommy was as charming and as engaging as ever, and his bandmates were totally tight. If you didn’t happen to win tickets to be at the event, and you didn’t happen to be able to listen to the radio at that time, you can check out our youtube video of it, and in fact, several of our past Parlour Sessions as well (including Natalie Merchant and, our most recent, Sean Rowe) by clicking here!
