Our longtime bassist/vocalist and dear friend Dan Seward passed away peacefully in the early morning of Jan. 30 at 83. While it is with great sadness that we mourn his loss, it's also with deep appreciation that we remember his life, music, humor and friendship. Come share a celebration of Dan this coming Saturday, March 9 at one of his favorite hangouts, the VFW in Black Mountain. Festivities start mid-afternoon and continue into the evening. There will be good food and--surprise!--live music and jammin'. If you know Dan, and have friends who do as well, please share this post, and c'mon down!

Back to da Root, mon! East Asheville's favorite dive bar, sometimes featuring the best music within a wide radius, is kind enough to host the High Rollers once again, and we're glad to be back, as always! Mike Esposito on Dobro and vocals, and yours truly Lucky James on acoustic guitar, harmonica, and vocals. No charge (donations gratefully accepted), wonderful folks, dog friendly, full bar, great Mexican food truck...What more could you ask? Hope to see you!

An evening of acoustic music at our hometown's favorite venue! Jimmy's has been going strong for four years through thick and thin...Congratulations and best wishes! We're grateful to be a small part of an excellent community-oriented business. Wonderful pizza and Italian specialties, cold beer, and a comfortable atmosphere. Kids welcome; not so much dogs; no cover. Hope to see you there!

Having played at this legendary venue many times over the years, I'm delighted that our band the High Rollers ("Dawghouse" Dan Seward on upright bass, Mike Esposito on Dobro, and yours truly Lucky James on guitar, harp, and vocals) will be making another semi-regular appearance here. We'd love to see you if you're in the neighborhood, and best wishes to all our Black Mountain friends!
