UPPER LAKE – A music CD release party will be held on Sunday afternoon, Oct. 25, from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. at the Lake County Wine Studio on Main Street Upper Lake for the Lake County band Paris & Frindt & Friends.

The album is entitled “Blues Moon” and contains 10 original songs written by Janis Paris and Paul Frindt.

The CD will be played at the event, along with background music compiled by music connoisseur Morrie Powazek.

Hors d’oeuvres, coffee and tea will be furnished, and wine tastings are available at $1 apiece (glasses of wine are available at varying prices).

 

“Blues Moon” was recorded in Paris and Frindt’s home studio and mixed/mastered by Bobby Cochran at Laughing Coyote Productions in Potter Valley.

The album features many talented local artists – the friends in “Paris & Frindt & Friends” – and the music is a combination of light rock and blues.

Paris and Frindt freely admit to being influenced by music from the 70s, and in live performance do more than a few classics from this era – a sound the couple laughingly calls “geezer pop.” The public is invited to this event; for more information, phone 707-998-0249.

 

The street on the block First to Second is scheduled to be dug up Wednesday through Friday. Folks should plan on parking on First Street and previous block of Main Street between Washington and First as they come up from Highway 20.

For those that want to avoid Main Street altogether, they should turn North up Mendenhall and make a right onto First street and park on First or Sabini (west of Main Street, Sabini wraps from First back down to Mendenhall).

 

If Main Street parking on the Washington Street to First looks full, folks can turn right onto Washington which then curves left up to First Street on the east side of Main.
