Tassie Angels Return Summer 2021
Well here we are. June 2021. What can be said that hasn’t already been said. It’s been well over a year since our last public performance. We are blessed to report all members are present and accounted for. Like many bands, we have put the downtime to use writing and recording. Now that we can finally gather - we hope to put the finishing touches on new material and get it out the door and into the ears. We are confirmed for October 1st (Friday) at The Plough and Stars! As usual we’ll be doing bunch of private functions over the summer and hopefully a few more public shows! More to come soon….
Happy New Year!
Tassie Angels brought in 2020 and in a way finished off 2019 music season with a fun show at the Plough & Stars on the 3rd. New songs added to the sets and a nice crowd as always! Winter break begins with various band members traveling the next few months including back to TAS. Obviously a high level of ongoing angst over situation in AU. Stay safe in the new year - Best to all.
Father and Son combo strikes deep at the heart of the rhythm
When TA drummer James Dunoyer sets the groove at a gig. You might notice another similar looking figure right in tune with the beat. That’s Jean Dunoyer – James’ Dad – also an accomplished drummer. Jean can be spotted on the tambourine, shaker or most recently on Congas - making him the TA de facto percussionist.
Recently, Jean, Gretchen, James and Julia – The Dunoyer Family - hosted the Whipped Feta Music Fest. at their home. A number of bands were present to play including Tassie Angels. There was great gourmet food and craft beer. Even with all this going on, Jean had time to sit in with Tassie Angels on a tune.
Check out Pete Cornelius Band
We caught his CD release party at the Longley International Hotel - great playing and excellent venue.
TA in Tasmania
Some of the band returned to Tasmania for February to rest, rejuvenate and visit friends. Was super cool to play music with many of Joe’s local friends whom have been playing the catalog as long as the stateside folks. Also great to see what the Hobart music scene is up to. The number of pubs to people ratio and lack of TVs pumping sports news was great. Some excellent outdoor venues as well. Certainly places for musicians to showcase their craft. Now the press to finish some new material is underway! Hopefully we can ride out the last of the bleak New England weather while completing some new music to share. Best, TAs
