News: Steve Ferrone Plays With Us (Again!) + Summer Shows #LearningToFlyTour2018 Continues …

June 02, 2018
 
 

Hey all you Honey Bees & Refugees,

Our summer show schedule kicked off on Memorial Day at the Mill Valley Summer Carnival for Kiddo Benefit. It was special day for us as we were honored to be joined by none other than “Real Deal” and legendary drummer Steve Ferrone of the Heartbreakers! We were like kids in a candy store playing with one of our hero’s performing: “I Won’t Back Down”, “Runnin’ Down A Dream”, “Don’t Come Around Here No More”, and a grand finale of “It’s Good To Be King”. Joining us for the last song was Kenneth Brian of the Kenneth Brian Band.
It was truly a magical moment for us to play Tom Petty’s music with his drummer of over 20 years. A heartfelt and special experience playing these songs, some of which were the first time Steve has played them since Tom’s passing last October. 

We will carry this musical high with us as we continue on into our summer show schedule adventures. We hope you will JOIN US!
