Fresh off their mini-tour up to and including the New Orleans Jazz Fest these two band have been ripping it up together. Can only imagine the fun they will have hosting the Jammy’s – check out a little piece of an interview from jambands with Warren on Grace . . .

MG- This year you are co-hosting the Jammys with Grace Potter. Do you remember the first time you shared the stage with Grace? What were your initial impressions of her and the Nocturnals? WH- About three years ago we did one show together at a theater in upstate New York and I was surprised how much of a connection they made with our audience. Our audience really connected with Grace and the Nocturnals and our audience doesn’t always connect with our openers [laughter]. So they came out on the road with us last Fall and we played together quite a bit. MG- What about Grace’s sound do you feel resonated most strongly with your fans? WH- You can feel from her and the band the respect they have for rock, soul and the blues. They all have extremely good taste in music and create really honest music. Even when Grace is strutting around on the stage there is something really genuine about her performance.

That last comment there from Warren is what I and many others have felt about this band, and it's nice praise indeed coming from him!

Certainly Grace and Warren having been having a musical love affair the last several months. This is good for the world of music and certainly for Mule and Nocturnal's fans.
It will be fun to hear about the unpredictable Potter's hijinx at the Jammys this week.
