I've been following this group for over ten years, since back when they were called Blake and the Family Dog and were playing at Valentines in Albany and The Van Dyck in Schenectady. It was great to see Blake and Yarn back in the area last weekend.
I write for a blog called Old School Record Review, and my review of the Roots Music Festival Yarn was part of is currently up on the site. I hope other fans will get the chance to check it out, I got a nice recording of the song "Abilene":
I also recorded an interview with Blake, which will be posted to the site as a podcast you can stream or download in a couple weeks. I think we had an interesting conversation and he dropped some hints about the new album Yarn plans to release this fall.
