French Kiss presents:
It’s Labor Day, therefore the Saloon opens its doors to songs about working men & women of all types — from waitresses to factory workers to truckers to miners to backwoods entrepreneurs to farmers to, well…even the unemployed and a criminal or two.
I’ll also let you know about some live music coming to Richmond later this week.
So kick back and enjoy the next two hours of good Labor Day music!
