kevin desabrais
Kevin is a prolific singer/songwriter, who's finally made a CD (available at his site). Sandman can be seen accompanying Kevin on occasion. If you've got shoes that need mending, Kevin is the man to see - He's kept a couple of pairs of the Sman's boots walking many years past their prime!

Energetic performer, excellent guitar player, real good songwriter.
Josie Crosby
Sandman first met Josie a year or so ago, playing at a bar where nobody cared. He saw her out front tuning her banjo & stopped back out of curiosity. She hosts a couple of open-mics & is making a splash around New England. Glad to see her getting the attention she deserves...she's an original.
Sman's myspace
We haven't quite gotten the technical hang of it...another step toward world renown...
