March Uptown Show Retracted
From Scott Ford, Twilight/Uptown bassist:
Due to recording commitments for the upcoming Twilight Singers album, coupled with Greg’s preparations for the Afterhours tour, reluctantly we have decided to cancel the [Uptown Lights] show at Spaceland on March 26th.
Simply put there is not enough time to do it all. Rest assued though we will perform again as Uptown Lights and as soon as we have a show booked we will let you guys know where and when.
We really appreciate all the support and love, and we take that with us as we begin tracking the new Twilight Singers album.
Keep on keepin’ on.
