Not Long To Go Now

Well it seems an age in coming but the long Easter break is almost over for creweroots.

Otis Gibbs will be swinging his way to the Horse Shoe on Tuesday the 19th May 2009.

Here's a little from Russ:

"Where do we start with Otis Gibbs? Originally from Indiana and now from Nashville, Tennessee, here’s a man who has planted over 7,000 trees, slept in hobo jungles, walked with nomadic shepherds in the Carpathian Mountains, been strip-searched by cops in Detroit, and has an FBI file. He’s our kinda guy. If you want a good read you can head to ‘The Travels and Tribulations of Otis Gibbs’ at http://www.otisgibbs.com where you can see videos streamed live and hear about a dozen of his songs (we’re playing his new album ‘Grandpa Walked a Picketline’ to death at the moment…).

As we write this update, Otis stands at number 5 in the Americana Radio Chart (USA) AHEAD of the new Ryan Adams album! The Wall Street Journal recently published ‘Five Songs with Something to Say’ – Otis was included alongside Bob Dylan, the Clash, Sam Cooke and Chuck Berry. This is a compulsory night out! No excuses!"

We'll bring you more on Otis soon!
