Rebecca and the Grey Notes would like to thank everyone who ventured out to support us throughout 2019. We have been blessed with wonderful fans and promoters who appreciate the complexity and value of live music. The venues included the Studio Winery in Lake Geneva, the Oconomowoc Arts Center, Paulie’s Pub in West Allis, Polish Fest, Summerfest, Bastille Days, Tally’s Tap & Eatery in Waukesha, Parkside 23 in Brookfield and Tosa Fest in Wauwatosa. Our next gig is 6 p.m. Jan. 7, 2020, at Parkside 23 in Brookfield. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

We wrapped up our summer performance schedule with shows Friday night, Sept. 6, at Tally’s Tap & Eatery in Waukesha and Saturday, Sept. 7, at Tosa Fest in Wauwatosa. Tally’s provided an intimate setting for our original music, while Tosa Fest gave us one last shot for the year on a large, festival stage. Thanks to all of our fans for supporting our music. We’ll be back at Tally’s in late November.

We have a double header coming up. We’ll be performing at 8:30 p.m. Sept. 6 at Tally’s Tap & Eatery, S31-W24661 Sunset Drive, Waukesha, and at 3 p.m. Sept. 7 at the Rotary Stage at Tosa Fest. Both performances are free. These two gigs will wrap up our 2019 summer concert series, in which we played major music venues such as Summerfest, Bastille Days, Polish Fest and the Wisconsin State Fair, and cozier gigs at Tally’s, Paulie’s in West Allis and Parkside 23 in Brookfield. Thanks to everyone who supported live music this summer!

Parkside 23 in Brookfield has invited us back to perform there from 6 to 9 p.m. Aug. 20. Sample the restaurant’s extensive menu of fine appetizers and entrees, then listen to three hours of music in a cozy setting, all done without a cover charge.

Thanks to the work of Enrique Rodriguez, we have some video of our performance in July at Bastille Days. To watch the video, go here.

Thanks to Major Goolsby’s and the Wisconsin State Fair for allowing us to perform at the Heartland Stage twice during the first weekend of the fair. The managers and wait staff were extremely accommodating, and Dominic Famularo did a superb job mixing the sound. Thanks also to all of our fans for supporting live music. To see a list of some of those who showed up, go to Facebook.

The weather forecast appears to be perfect this weekend for outdoor concerts, and we’re happy to cooperate with performances Saturday and Sunday, Aug. 3 and Aug. 4, at the Major Goolsby’s Heartland Stage at the Wisconsin State Fair. Our show on Aug. 3 will begin at noon and end at 3:30 p.m.; our Aug. 4 gig will begin at noon and end at 3 p.m. The Major Goolsby’s Heartland Stage offers plenty of seating in sun or shade, a large selection of great food and a variety of music that will suit anyone’s taste.
