CANCELED: The Apaches Album Release Party, The Lost Leaf, Friday March 20, 2020

UPDATE: This show has been canceled due to sharknado-birdemic-toilet-paperocalypse. We'll try to reschedule. Stupid pandemic.

Phoenix spaghetti surfers The Apaches have been good enough to invite us to open for them at their album release party (it's called Rancho Deluxe, and is available now at Double Crown Records) at The Lost Leaf Bar & Gallery, 914 N. 5th St., Phoenix.

Moonlight Magic will also be there casting their desert exotica spell (although their drummer looks kind of sketchy.)

There's a Facebook event link if you want to RSVP... it's just good manners.

See ya there!
