Title: Johnson, Miller & Dermody CD release Concert in Bellingham, 2/23
Post by: Johnm on February 06, 2012, 10:35:17 AM: Hi,
I wanted to let you know about a concert on Thursday, February 23, 2012 featuring Johnson, Miller & Dermody, celebrating the release of their new CD, "We Heard The Voice of a Porkchop". The trio features Orville Johnson on mandolin, John Miller on guitar, and Grant Dermody on harmonica, and we trade off on vocals, performing a variety of Country Blues classics and originals.

The concert on the 23rd will be held at the ballroom of the Bellingham YWCA, located at 1026 Forest Street N., 98225, in Bellingham, and will start at 7:30. Admission is $15.00

We hope you can make it to the show. We're excited about the CD and welcome the opportunity to share some of that excitement and our music with you and give you a chance to listen to the porkchop.

All best,
John Miller

Congratulations on your new release. I wish I was farther north so I could make the concert--I'm sure it'll be a dandy!

Scorch those microphones boys!

John- was there a specific decision for Orville to go solely with mandolin for this cd? I'm intrigued at the complete absence of his dobro and Im guessing it was an artisitic decision?

Slide mandolin- weird. But great fun.

Post by: orvillej on February 24, 2012, 08:34:05 AM: Going all mandolin was my choice. I really enjoy playing mandolin and this is the only time I get to do it in a band context so I decided to go for it. As you noticed, I did still have to get a little sliding in there!

We had a nice show last night and look forward to Saturday's Seattle concert. See y'all there.

I just realized you're the same guy that has Blues Rhumba lesson in AG. I'm enjoying the JDM Cd.
