NO - I'm not singing with the guys! Just doing my share to promote a cool Summer happening in Sierra Madre, and turn all of you onto a great musical duo that you might want to hire for your next shindig!STEVE & STEVE (Ysais & Vargas, of Horses on Astroturf fame) will be performing their acoustic rock & folk classics, as well as their own original songs in Kersting Court this Friday, 8/14, as part of the "FRIDAY NIGHT LIVE" series which runs thru August 28th.
Shoppers who spend a certain amount of money at participating Chamber of Commerce retailers or restaurants will be given a free tote bag full of goodies, while supplies last. They will also be entered into a drawing for valuable prizes donated by the Chamber and local merchants. All in all, it's a nice way to spend a Friday evening with family & friends in beautiful downtown Sierra Madre!
