UKIAH, Calif. – This Sunday, Aug 14, local boys Short Stax (you might remember them as Taste Like Chicken) are going to be opening for The Robert Cray Band at Todd Grove Park in Ukiah.

Be sure to come and say hi to the group, which includes David Neft on keyboards an bass, Steve Dubois on drums and “Mojo” Larry Platz on guitar.

The show starts at 6 p.m. and is free to all ages.

Short Stax is three-fifths of Bill Noteman and the Rockets, kind of rockin' jazzy, kind of funky bluezy, but all fun.
