Green Light -- Live at The Knitting Factory, our 4th full-length CD, is now complete. This latest recording features fun-filled forays into the dark & light of our collective unconscious. There are several brand new tunes including 2 completely spontaneous pieces of beauty, pain & joy, and some scary new versions of older gL tunes. |
GL's out-of-print, self-titled debut CD is now available on Itunes and Napster for download. The live recording captures an energetic and musical show. A few of the stand outs on the disc, Falling Into Place and Sweet or Unsweet, are gL staples. |

Green Light's Northeast tour in January was successful and inspiring. We played some great venues, had many deep listeners in the audience, and met lots of soulful and creative people along the way. Our performance at the world-famous Knitting Factory in New York City was recorded and selected tracks will be released soon.

We had a great time playing in New Orleans again, this time during Jazzfest. We got to play for a crowd of real music lovers and got to see some great music in our spare time. Our tours down to New Orleans are always a blast with stops in such great southern towns as Atlanta, Birmingham, Memphis, Jackson, Oxford, Huntsville, and Auburn. Special thanks to the music venues in NOLA that have shown us such great hospitality; Old Point Bar, Mermaid Lounge, Checkpoint Charlie and DBA.
