Though the sun may not shine as much as we might like, the rain may fall just a bit more often than we would prefer, and the snow may come a smidgen too soon and stay a tad too long, one thing is for certain, the forecast is always bright and shiny for this week’s featured band, Good Weather for Ducks.
This incredible four-piece band is a very high energy, excitement driven group of musicians that engulf their audiences in not only the music, but the moment as well.
