JW & Jamie & Laura's Excellent Adventure...

JW and his band, Jamie Holmes on drums and Laura Greenberg on bass, are currently touring the U.S. in support of the album.   So far it's been an eventful tour:

In Sacramento, California, local favorite Little Charlie Baty came down to the Torch Club and sat in with JW's band. Said Charlie, "Catch them if you can - they are an impressive band of young Canadian blues performers." http://mailman.305spin.com/users/blindpigrecords/images/Charlie-Baty-Web.jpg

The next day, JW and his bandmates attended a taping of the Conan show in Burbank, where they got to meet Conan O'Brien and rub shoulders backstage with Miley Cyrus. http://mailman.305spin.com/users/blindpigrecords/images/Conan-Web.jpg
