Crystal Garden

A quick search done and I did not see a thread for BT's side project. But I found this article to share. Combine this with another thread if need be.

    Anyone ever check these guys out? They're playing in Providence with Boyd and Stanley Jordan at the end of the month. Thinking about going.

    They guested on a local radio station back around thanksgiving. Only caught one song, but enjoyed it.

    There's a decent chance I may go to this, so I'll be sure to take some vids.

    Saw these guys last night and went in with low expectations (mainly because Boyd has become so weird), but I have to admit I was blown away. These guys are all really great musicians and played their asses off. I really enjoyed them and will most likely be checking out their album. I could definitely see these guys playing much bigger venues and think they have the sound for it. To top it all off Boyd sounded excellent. Maybe not 1994-Boyd, but certainly not the Boyd that's been muted every night at DMB shows. It really makes you wonder what the deal is with all that, because he sounded better than I've heard him play in years, and of the songs he played he was constantly playing. Not just standing there with the violin on his hip. Very cool to see. I took video of the first song but it's pretty big so I'll have to find a way to post it.

    saw them in Philly this year. Good sound and Boyd seemed to be truly enjoying himself.
    Boyd also came up about 10-15 mins after the show and took time to meet with everyone that was still there.
    def recommend checking them out if they are in your area.

    I met him once before so we didn't stick around for the hugs. But those guys could really jam. Would be great to see them open for DMB. They would benefit from a horn or two, but they certainly filled out the sound as is.

    Has anyone seen Crystal Garden? They're coming to my city for like $10 and was wondering if it's worth checking out.

    Edit: somehow the mobile version of my phone didn't show the above posts. Sounds like they are worth checking out.

    Might as well. I'm on the guest list to tape for Boyd but doubt I can get home in time.

    If anything, it will be a cheap night out and you might get to see some Boyd pubes.

    I mean, it's $10. How bad can it really be for $10. Buy one less drink and you get to see live music.

    I'm going to the B'ham show in a couple of weeks since it's only $10. Checked out some of their live clips on their website and they look pretty decent and there's probably a decent chance we'll get to meet Boyd.

    I'm going to the Raleigh show on Sunday. Looking forward to seeing BT saw away in a small venue. Haven't checked out the CG album but from what I hear the live show is better. Would love to meet Boyd again. Got a giant BT hug after WPB 2013 N2 lol.
