FRIDAY HAPPY HOUR SERIES FT. KRISS & BUZZ GORDO
Kriss Santala is bringing the jams back to Friday happy hours here at Cafe Nine! Come down from 5-7 PM and enjoy performances by some of New Haven's best musicians and singers, and best of all, admission is FREE! Bring some money for the musician's tip jar and get your weekend kicked off right at Cafe Nine.
Buzz Gordo and Darla Dangler, a/k/a Gary Mezzi and Kriss Santala, have been musical collaborators on the New Haven scene for many years, dating back to when Kriss sang background vocals on recording and live shows with Buzz’s old Band Big Bad Johns. They’ve shared a lot of stages over the years, but this is the first time they are playing out as a duo proper.
You know Darla from her namesake band The Danglers as well as from groups like La Tunda, the Hiccups, the Who Whos, and more. Buzz currently fronts Bronson Rock, and was guitarist and songwriter for Gone Native and Big Bad Johns.
At this show, expect a mix of originals and covers, with close country harmonies and hot guitar solos. Shout out a request, and we bet they will know it.
