Latest News & Yelps
Artist bio: Andy Koch – puppeteer, musician, clown – finds joy entertaining others
Andy Koch (pronounced “cook”) moved to Bellingham from Seattle in the fall of 1973 to attend Fairhaven College. It was meant to be a temporary move.
His motto now, he says, is “old enough to know better; too late to stop now.”
A heartfelt thanks to all for keeping track of our goings ons, and making it out to shows when you can.
We could not do it without your support.
Our latest CD OFF LEASH! Featuring Fat James, is available at shows and is a perfect gift for the Blues Lover on your list.
If you Play the blues, if you feel the blues, if you love the blues, then you know what it is to get “down and dirty”, or doin’ the “Chicago Roll” on the dance floor, and if you are a good musician, and you can slide into the groove, in the old blues jam tradition; you are a part of the “Blues Society”.
