It's been a while :)

Hello fanZandt!  Long time no blog.  We've been busy making music :)

Since the last posting almost 2 1/2 years ago?  We've played at least 25 gigs, learned some new songs and written quite a few new awesome tunes.  We bid adieu to Diane, who has moved on to other musical pursuits.  Doug now plays keyboard most of the time and we welcome the most awesome bass player, James!

One Lane Bridge continues to make music, but we have lost our namesake bridge.  The one-lane-bridge on Potter Road has been replaced by a structurally sound two-lane bridge (though we lament the loss of the old bridge with so much character).  The One Lane Bridge music group, however, now has a monthly gig at Kulshan Brewery on James Street on the first Saturday of the month.

Other than that, Gregg "Lipps" McClaran still plays beautiful horn lines and sings sweet folk tunes, Kent has more time to write music and practice, Joe is just as cool as ever while he marries off two daughters this summer, Robin may be the most prolific songwriter in northwest Washington and Chuck coordinated the "Music on the Mountain" series at the Mount Baker Ski Area.

We have some pretty cool gigs lined up for Spring/Summer.

• April 30 - bandZandt, One Lane Bridge and Meinhardt Merry play the Conway Muse for a night of all original tunes.
• May 7 - One Lane Bridge - Kulshan Brewery - we are the regular band for the first Saturday of the month
• July 30 - bandZandt at the Edison Tavern
• August 4 - bZ with a return to the most awesome concert in Elizabeth Park
• August 7 - bZ at the Sedro Woolley summer concert
• ...and many private parties as well.
• First Saturday of each month - One Lane Bridge has a regular slot at the Kulshan Brewery on James Street.

We probably aren't going to be doing a lot of blogging - but we will keep the calendar up to date!  We hope to see you sooner rather than later.
