Thanks to everyone that came out to the show on Sunday. We hope you had a great time!

Sunday, May 25th - Riverfest

3:30-4:30: Sara Thomas Band: Literate folk-rock.5-6: The Salty Dogs: Local honky-tonk heroes bringing the Bakersfield sound to Little Rock.6:30-7:30: Boondogs: Nationally acclaimed low-watt pop.8-9:30: Jim Dickinson: A famed Little Rock-born producer and session player, who's solo work is a zany and infectious mishmash of Southern roots music - Hill country blues, Memphis soul, swamp rock, and '70s psychedlia.

I thought I would let you know some new information on the SD front.Our label's distribution company has reached an agreement with CBuJ Entertainment distribution. The Salty Dogs' latest album with be re-released in April with CBuJ. What does this mean? Well, it means not only will you find The Salty Dogs online everywhere, you will start actually seeing the album in stores. So...instead of requesting it at your local Best Buy and having them order it, they will soon be able to help you find it in the store.

Salty Dogs' T-shirts are now be offered via CafePress. We have tried to keep the prices down as much as possible for you. Let me just say, CP has to pad the pocket a little.

Take care,

I hate to inform you that our bass player, Mike Nelson, has left the band. He has decided to dedicate more time to his recording and other business ventures. We wish him all the luck and want to thank him for all of his contributions to the band.

So what now? The Salty Dogs are moving forward. We are excited to welcome Brent LaBeau to The Salty Dogs. Brent's name was at the top of our list. I asked a respected local musician for any ideas. He stated, "Brent is the best player I know." That could mean one of two things: 1). This guy doesn't know a lot of bass players OR 2). Brent has got some skills. I know from experience that this guy does know a lot bass players AND Brent does have some skillz...and yes, that is with a "z." I think he will be a great fit for the band. Welcome aboard, Brent.
