MUSICIAN by Night debut with recording artists “PLAYGROUND ETIQUETTE” . . .

MBN with PE 6-7-14 020 (2)On Saturday June 7th, in the Highland Town neighborhood of Baltimore, MD local recording artists, Playground Etiquette took the stage at the GREEK FESTVAL on a sunny, hot & humid afternoon.  Not didn’t hold back, they kicked off the event with a bang and started rockin’ the stage with some of their own music which is out of this world.

MBN with PE 6-7-14 030Athena Hiotis, the lead vocalist, guitarist, keyboard player and co-writer of their music is an absolute musical genius. Together with her childhood friend, Nicholas (Nik) Kosmas, bass player, vocalist and musical engineer of the band, co-wrote the songs on their new album "La Marionnette" just recently released.

MBN with PE 6-7-14 028 (2)They have a unique musical relationship that makes their band very hot !  They also have a young lady who sings and plays a mean electric violin.  Her name is Lisa Christine.  That day, their regular drummer and lead guitarist were no able to make the gig so they had a friend of theirs sit in on drums and he was great.  I wish I would had gotten his name because it’s always good to have great musicians contact info at your fingertips.

That day, Nik and Athena asked me (MUSICIAN by Night) to sit-in with them on a blues number so I took them up on their offer and grabbed by go-to axe, my 2004 Gibson Les Paul Standard and plugged into their Fender Deluxe amp and I was off and ready to rock n’ roll.
