The David Mayfield Parade: Bring it to JJ’s 2/25!

January 12, 2012 1 Comment

The David Mayfield Parade just announced  — with a low-tech sheet of paper — their February’s tour dates which includes Bluegrass Underground in McMillville, TN and RIGHT HERE in Chattanooga at JJ’s Bohemia on Saturday 2/25!

David Mayfield’s band released their self-titled LP around this time last year, which is slam-packed with Avett Brothers guest appearances and made it on The South Rail’s Top 20 Albums of 2011 list. Our guess is we’ll be hearing songs from that album as well as some new tunes… maybe even some special guests?

If your not farmilar with David Mayfield Parade, or missed them last year at Rhythm and Brews, check out a couple key tracks below and get ready for the 25th!

Also check David and his little sis’ Jessica Lea Mayfield w/ The Avett Brothers a few years back. Great stuff:

We recently had the privilege to see The David Mayfield Parade at Rhythm & Brews last week and got to celebrate David’s birthday at the end of the show with a few cocktails… If you haven’t heard of David Mayfield or his new band The David Mayfield Parade, you surely HAVE heard of David Mayfield…. here’s why:

• David Mayfield, is a Grammy-nominated musician and producer who has previously performed with:
– Cadillac Sky
– The Avett Brothers
– Jessica Lea Mayfield (his sister)

David’s songwriting abilities along with his many musical talents have evolved into what is now known as the David Mayfield Parade. This highly charged ensemble has brought the true roots of early rock-n-roll and singer/ songwriter-country music back… BUT of course, David Mayfield has added a little flair to make it his own. The live performance is an explosion of Carl Perkins meets bluegrass hoedown….forcing the audience to enjoy every second of it.

Check out the David Mayfield Parade while they are on tour supporting their newly released album HERE

And while your at it, pick up the self-titled album HERE… or download the track ‘Blue Skies Again’ for the price of your email address:
