Where have the Icicles been?
You might have wondered what happened to us. In the last 6 months there have been three new additions to the Icicles’ families. In late December Aaron and his wife Emily had a son – Drake. Then in early May Gretchen and Zane had twin babies – Walter and Miriam. Things have finally settled down and we’ll be getting back to practice and hopefully releasing the album we recorded in June of last year.
Icicles Show – October 2, 2010
Well, we are finally out of hibernation after recording fifteen songs this summer for our upcoming album. We will be helping to kick off the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society’s Light the Night Walk on Oct. 2 at the downtown YMCA. We will be playing at 5:30 p.m. Hope you can make it!
