The Bear performed 13 tracks from their debut album Friday upstairs at Billy Reid Clothing in downtown Florence. The show attracted a large, diverse group of people. If you don't know Billy Reid, Google his name. He's based in Florence and is a big supporter of local music.
Thanks to the band, I was able to get in early and set up before people started coming in, which was very helpful. I thought I was running a little hot at the very beginning of "I Got a Man" but it was easily repaired in Wavelab.
These guys have a cool bluegrass/Americana sound that could turn out to be what Muscle Shoals music is becoming. Go see them if they come to your town.

enjoy!
