ON THE ROAD/SHANNON HICKS

Heard from Andy Spencer this week, one of the three musicians in the

Newtown/Sandy Hook band TREBLEHOOK. The band has been playing around Newtown

for a few years, at The Chat House as well as the opening concert in the 1998

Summer Series at Booth Library in Newtown this year, among other locations.

The group is primarily acoustic, and performs its own material as well as that

of others.

The band already has a show set up for January. Treblehook will be performing

at the Morris Coffee House on Saturday, January 9, beginning at 7 pm. For

details, call 860/567-3317.

Until next week, I'll be seeing you... on the road.
