Syracuse, NY

2nd Story Coffeehouse has definitely been one of our favorite venues on the tour so far. Tucked away in the Westcott neighborhood, 2nd Story is a beautiful space with wonderful art on the walls and a cozy feel. Alexis runs the coffeeshop and Jeff books the music (and hosts the wayfaring bands).

We played one of our best sets of the tour, finishing with an acoustic version of “Give Your Love,” which gave our friends in Auld Lang Syne license to play their entire set acoustic. And what a set it was! They stepped out in front of the mics and played a truly breathtaking collection of some of the most tender and gutsy music we’ve ever heard. Their amazingly beautiful song “Tree on Fire” was our personal favorite. Jason Cimon joined again for a fantastic encore of one of his songs.

The crowd at 2nd Story poured over into a neighboring bar, and the conversations and the start of new friendships carried over late into the night.
